Lecture of MIRANDA JAVID
MIRANDA JAVID is an animator in LA. She is focusing on vivid animation from life experience.
She showed us one of her animation which name is Smoke’s Last Thought. As an animator, I think the actions of the character and the change of smoke is really vivid.

The lecture of HSIN-CHEN HUANG
Last week, I attended a lecture made by HSIN-CHEN HUANG. Hsin-Chien Huang is a new media creator with backgrounds in art, design, engineer and digital entertainment. His career endeavor explores cutting edge technologies in art, literature, design, and stage performing. He showed several works to us. I find that Huang focuses on the relationship between past and present. He wants to let people find and get their own history. He told us the story about his family. His experience let him be very interested in creating something about human’s private history and made some exhibitions about it.
This is one of the shows about the history of himself by combining old things and 3D technology.
Processes like this are like fungi that grow on decaying matters, as the heart is thought to be a place where progressions and developments occur. Evolutions continuously transpire from within, unfolding from those that are simple to those that are more complex, with the heart’s crevices gradually filled. There is an indescribable behavioral mimicry observed in the different lives across generations and also in everyday activities that are constantly repeated. However, these seemingly insignificant imitations and replications have also become important supporting points in people’s lives, with how emotions are passed down and attributed and the context of memories imprinted in the tracks of those heavily replicated lives.

Thinking about “Digital Art “written by Christiane Paul
After reading the “DIGITAL ART” written by Christiane Paul, I think about the use of digital techniques in my major. Animation is a major need a basis of a lot of techniques, we always learn a lot of software to make animation better, Maya, 3D MAX, C4D, After Effect and so on. But sometimes I think we rely too much on these techniques. More and more designers lost the ability of drawing, using software is enough for them to create something. But as for me, I think the traditional abilities of art is also very important and irreplaceable. I have three questions about it.
What is the relationship between digital art and traditional art?
How can we use digital art in the right way and combine it with traditional art?
Digital art brings us plenty of conveniences, is there any side effects related to us brings by digital art?

The lecture from Nick Pedersen
Today we have a lecture in the Myrtle Hall of Pratt Institute. The lecture is given by Nick Pedersen. Nick Pedersen is a photographer and digital artist currently based in Salt Lake City, Utah. He holds a BFA degree in Photography, as well as an MFA degree in Digital Arts from Pratt Institute in New York. In this lecture, he said that most of his personal works are about nature and environment issues. Among his works, I love the series of FLOATING WORLD the most. It is an ongoing project exploring the impacts of climate change on the planet and the issues of sea-level rise in coastal cities around the world. It gives me a lot of inspiration for my project about climate change.
There is another series I am very interested in, its name is SUMERU. It uses a traditional character from Japan and a lot of eastern philosophy.
Sumeru is a body of work that metaphorically illustrates the mental journey that is undertaken in Zen Buddhist training and practice. In Zen literature, the word ‘land’ is commonly used as a symbol for the ‘mind’, and through a series of photographic montage images I have envisioned an exploration into the depths of this metaphorical ‘mind-world’. The narrative follows a spiritual quest as the storyline symbolically wanders through various states of consciousness and perceptions.

PHENOMENAL NATURE_MRINALINI MUKHERJEE
I went to the MET Museum to see the exihibition of Phenomenal Nature this saturday. It shows the work of Mrinalini Mukherjee.The structures looks very abstract, sometimes I can not understand what it talks about without the guidebook. The works presented in the retrospective demonstrate how Mukherjee staged a series of radical interventios in her adaptation og craft and her approach to modernism and shows the relationship between taditional and the modern.

Some thinking about why Stacy Kranitz's work upsets some of the people from Appalachia.
Stacy Kranitz’s did not show the regular life in the Appalachia. The photos show the bad side of the Appalachia,and bring harm to the residents of the Appalachia.

Questions, comments, and underlined passages of "What Good is Political Art in Times like These".
This article tells about the relationship between art and politics.It gives a lot of sample about artists who made some changes of the period,like Vladimir Tatlin,Pablo Picasso,Helio Oiticica.Even at this time when social movements are at a low tide,the writer also hope that there will have more politically inspired art and inspired political art.
As a student of animation,I always create some storys about social statement,It may be one kind of inspired political art.But when we are making the work about politics,there may have some precautions we need to notice.How can we know we are on the right way to create somthing political?

An example of an artist who uses appropriation
At the beginning of art study,we are always appropraite from other artists and then we can develop our own style. Artists appropriate, artists borrow. Picasso, for instance, borrowed from almost everybody: Chardin, Corot, Courbet, Cranach, El Greco, Goya, Ingres...
