About A Book

I was very interested in art design about painting.So I find a book “Digital art” in the AUT library.The book’s author is Paul Christiane. Digital technology is used by people in all areas of society now. It does not like as traditional art. It is using some software on the computer and thus creating extraordinary works of art.I think it was very interesting.And this book also shows me that art of different types in different time background in the world.I already decided to start to read this book now.

5 Chosen Areas of Creativity

We have next assessment that gets 5 different area of the creativity.These 5 different areas of creativity are will get from some books and texts.We can find the sense is 5 different areas of creativity between technology.

So I use some time trying to find what area of the creativity I interesting.It is not easy because every thing can be creative.So I want to know the more area of creativity, but there are many branches.

I already have chosen 5 area of the creativity:

photograph

design for image

marketing（This is for studio program 2）

service industry（This is for studio program 2）

fashion

Although I find 5 area of interesting now.I need to find out the similarities in these about five different area texts or images of creativity.But I haven’t decided which five texts do my reading range for the assignment.Until today I still found those text or image about the different area of creativity.

Blog's post for Natasha Jen - Design Thinking is Bullshit

http://99u.com/videos/55967/natasha-jen-design-thinking-is-bullshit

This video shows me how to solve the problem of a different design idea. I finished this video and I have some thoughts.But I agree with her some opinion. Because all design is different and the process of design is complicated.If we need to create a product and we need to design the basic frame.It was not easy to make sure which aspect will be taken.When we start a program ，designer just have a brief and a certain goal.The designer can be started his design.Of course，every idea was diversification because it was not mean that can know which is the best one.These need be investigated by the different area.

Although I think the design though divergent it is so immense.If according to the actual situation. This openness thinking will make the design involved huge workload.Then the resulting is that the designer can not complete a program within the stipulated time.I think to start to design before we need to make sure what kind of the program.Because of we certain to know what we should do for the program.The designer needs to consider different people like it or not and consider this program is can implement in the social.Then the design is good.

Of cource，I interested in the design.The video helping me to know some of the design knowledge and how is the processing different design idea.

MANDATORY BLOG POST

In my understanding, this video tells us what is the most efficient way to read. And this method also allows us to understand clearly what is being read and help us understand what the text is being read.

I still agree with some of his views on reading. He said when we finished every chapter in the text We can focus on a few words and words around the key, to sum up, the general meaning of the chapter or the plot. So after a few days to read these texts. And then look at the summary of those sentences, you can immediately recall what read before. And then read next one chapter, it will be more coherent, and will not appear to read the current chapter, but forget the above several chapters of the plot.

I think this method of reading is to improve the reading efficiency and also let the reader for their own content of each chapter to do a reflection. Readers are also thinking about the meaning of reading. It is like the reader in the use of their own ideas and the author's thinking in the discussion and comparison.

Although I agree with this video the reading idea, not all the text is suitable for this method. I think this method is suitable for the text of the narrative and not suitable for argumentative text. Because the content of the larger part of the argument itself is an example. It is difficult to use every a sentence to summarize every chapter in the text.

So this method helps me because it is very helpful for reading the storytelling text of a strong.

This is a basic frame of the program by our group to design.

[doris-xu-yang-blog]

Group proposal: Brief

Group member：Paul Chan ，Doris Yang

Before I and other people to form a group but we have a different area of ideas and concepts for the project.And our idea can not be combined with the project.So we are disbanded.

So I want to find other people form a group and I talk my idea for someone.Then I find Pail Chen.Our idea some part is same.So we decide to do that together.

Project Topic：There are 2 people make a group to do the project together.The project includes some different area of technology. e.g..  people and people in the social, marketing, economy, computing technology.The project topic is”THE SMART COLLECTIVE MARKETING PLATFORM”

Group Vision: I and Paul Chen both interest in how to combine the social technology and marketing movement.Our group’s goal is do a website or App software to show the marketing movement.So we decided to do a website or an App.Of course，we need have more communication on the topic and research more detail to complement the contents of our project.

Outcome: We have a certain goal of the project.We want to do a program for sellers and buyer between movement.The basic principle of this project is that we put the seller’s products in our project.Then the program helps them find the customers by the program.We use low prices to sell.Of course, the low price determines the price by sellers.If customers buy more goods and the price is cheaper than before. It is like as group buying in China.There are protect sellers and customers’ interests.We let consumers get the best price for goods and let sellers sell these goods successfully.The good method makes sellers and consumers both happy.It is a win-win.Of course, ，We get the idea of inspiration is from the group buy.

e.g.

         IF     sales volume ≤ 50,      then the price 20％ off

                50＞sales volume＜100, then the price 40％ off

                sales volume ≥100, then the price 60％ off

                etc.

Why we will do that？：I think that was involved in a wide range of and we can get more information to know because it makes we study and how to use different new technology to solve the important social problems.And then，our project is possible can solve the current business problem in the social.For example,，some sellers want to sell more goods，and they will give a low price to sell these.But sometimes they maybe can not find so many customers to buy their goods.Because their business district is too small and not enough customers.If they want to sell their goods quickly.This program can help them to solve.So I think they need this special technical product.

My Group Role：In my group，I creative design for the program.As an APP or website artist is not only focus on the design, but user interface design is very important.Like how to sort the chat window function.How to reset the interface button and what is the colour. Where the button is convenient in place of the user operation (such as one-handed operation or anything).etc.I need consider so many things.I know AI（Before I and other people to form a group but we have a different area of ideas and concepts for the project.And our idea can not be combined with the project.So we are disbanded.

Research direction: In the process of interface design, there are some special factors that affect user experience. The colour scheme of the interface needs to be designed according to the cultural background of the target users, such as the different colour scheme of the eastern and western cultures. How to optimize the placement of icons in the interface that allows being quickly understood by users. Good design can have a positively impact on the application, making it easier for users to accept. Interface design can move applications to a higher level.

This is our discuss and write some drift ideation and explain the project how to move.

This is our discuss and write some drift ideation and explain the project how to move.

final assessment

pendulum by Doris

[doris-xu-yang-blog]

Final Assessment Interrogation

This is my final interrogation project.This is a pendulum.A pendulum is used to divine in the life.It usually is made of a crystal.So I have some idea for the pendulum.I want to the pendulum can used in body’ health.The pendulum can forecast human’s body health.

The pendulum usually can use every colour crystal to make.Every colour is beautiful.So can not choose any colour crystal to make it.So I think can we put all different colour crystal together for a pendulum.The pendulum can change different colour when the pendulum wears ours around our neck. The pendulum can check our body ’s health.When the pendulum is red and it means our body is a very serious illness.When the pendulum is yellow and it means our body is sub-health.If is grey color，it mean body’s health is very good.etc.

My Individual Interrogations Of Movement

When I know that our next project is related to movement and I think probably the theme is that use technology to prove motion work. And when I finished the three weeks course.

Then I understand the truth: The technology and movement are inseparable in our life.

Movement is very common in our lives. Everything motion their movements are continuous, and their operation is to leave traces.Their movements are continuity and it is to leave some traces.

In the three weeks, I got a lot of ideas and things about different movements from 4 doctors. It also includes some Newton's laws and there are related to the movement. Every week 4 class and a different mentor teach some different type movement. But there are can be combined with each other. Although there is the direction of movement is different. They hope us can use different techniques to display that the movement and real life should be combined in our life.

The movement is relative.When an object is static and the other object is moving. Then they are all are motion. According to the definition of physics, the static means the state of the object does not move.Movement means the phenomenon of objects continues to change. When we observe an object is moved. We take a frame of reference to observe. So it can be proved that the movement is relative. How do you know an object is static? It also takes a frame of reference material. So if want to observe the physical movement of the object that must have least two objects (so must take another object reference）（1）

I was very interesting this sortable garbage bin and the sortable garbage bin has dredge pipe.

But this is complicated than my thinking because it needs more amount of works.So I want to add some function and improved some aspects.

For my movement project.

I want to do some convenient object for people and their life.Now，I have an idea and it is about automatic garbage bin.Although now we have different garbage bin for recycled garbage and non-recyclable garbage，but there are actually some people do not know which garbage is recyclable or not be recycled. So two rubbish of types put into the garbage bin together.

I want to do a garbage bin is more especially. The garbage bin has two caps, one is throwing recyclable garbage, one is throwing the can not be recycled garbage.

For example, when someone throws garbage into a recyclable inner box, the aisle will be tested that whether is recyclable garbage.If it is not,  and it will be drained outside the bin.If it is, and it will be into a recyclable inner box. So my project can combine with the social environment and people’life.Then let people'life more wonderful in the world.

Critical Technical Practice

A 140-character written caption：

My response to between Agre‘s text and violent in Auckland.These are my views for how to use creative technology to reduce violent in New Zealand. 

VISUAL ESSAY:

A 300-word reflection：

These is my reflection When I creating my visual essay.When I saw this last assessment is to write visual essay，I was very  distressed for that.What’s that？What is visual essay ?

I don’t understand what is different between visual essay and  common essay because I never heard that before.I want to solve my doubts and also to complete my final assessment.

I went to Chinese browser search about that, but I can nothing found.(Because I habitually research to Baidu browser.Baidu is a very famous browser in China.)So I understand for it.Then I went to Google browser to research and I found some about visual essay example.Finally I understand what is visual essay. Visual essay is picture and essay put together and these can form a visual story. 

First,I think I should use Adobe PhotoShop and Adobe Indesign to do my visual  essay. I can use Adobe PhotoShop to reorganize different  pictures together. Then I  can use Adobe Indesign to give pictures and text arranged.Now I can use two software influence.I need care when I make visual essay.I need to make meaning of the picture and the meaning of the text is fit and same.I can’t find  some irrelevant pictures to do my visual essay. Of course,I research some about violent in Auckland for my visual essay.I discover that rate of the violent is increase in Auckland.It is very bad because it’s show that between people and people are discord.I think maybe I can make some things to let this phenomenon be reduced.I think the thing is easy to carry and lightweight.The thing has build the  GPS.The thing can call and chat other people.This is best for people.The GPS can show your place when you are experiencing violent events.Then the GPS tell other people and they can help you.As for what is this thing and I will show it in my visual essay .

One key and authoritative reference：

http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/10243267/Family-violence-increasing

“Family violence is on the increase in New Zealand, a report has indicated.New Zealand Family Violence Clearinghouse, which compiled the report, said it was not clear what was behind the increase.”

Final project

I study some software from the process of design cards.I use Adobe Indesign

Adobe PhotoShops. Our final project is basis on  the first project : play the card game.

I never use these software before because I did not study any design class.So I was worried about can I finish my work in several days when my team ask me to do that in the project. Although it was very hard for me.I am hardworking to find some  tutorial in the internet.

Fortunately,I can use these software when I read  tutorial and to try more times  everyday.Then,I started to created.My member of the team help me to find some picture of the New Zealand’view for me.My team told me don’t give up and I can do that and I will be successful.Thanks my team encourage me.

Final studio：idea

Before several days，I talk with my team for the final project.We decide to extend the Paul's card game.We think the card game can change some element and it was connect with milk powder.Paul said that card game is used to study letter for children.So we think the card game is closely linked with milk powder.These card is gift in the creamer.

I am a art design in my in my team.So the card is designed by me.Of course，I do the propaganda poster of the card game too.

I studying，working，studying，working......ever

Our team think that the card can be geared to international standards.These cards are some  special New Zealand's views.Some Chinese can know that about some New Zealand's famous place.Of course，the main purpose of make the cards game is make  New Zealand's things more widespread for Chinese or other country people.

New Zealand is a famous tourist center.So if some people get some information from the card game.These people will be attracted by New Zealand.Not only that，the number of guest is increased in New Zealand.So the economy will become more prosperous in New Zealand.All at all，if our idea can be a method for company business.I think it will be good at New Zealand.（just thinking，aha～）
