"Empowered Mind"

The visuals of image clearly convey theme of empowerment and strength from a feminine side.

The visual of a young woman whom mind is as packed as fist in her mind, implicates the mental determination and willingness to fight against the odds in society.

The color bright red in background is giving more meaning and intensity of the message against the black color silhouette. The white fist in the brain shows the empowered and solidarity that calls for action for the young woman.

"Eyes Wide Shut"

The reason why I choose this visual piece is because the poster tell a lot about the film, I give an impression of teaser in itself.

The background color bright red shows the urgency and danger going through out the film. The visual of individuals wearing black gowns with white mask on there face shows suspicious things in surrounding. The big black and wide eye black indicate beside everyone being under the mask but everyone knows the secret that the society holds.

The same idea can be depicted in the typography where white and capital text is used. To give more meaning to the image eye, the designer has creatively increased the font-size of word 'wide'.

"Why is Everyone so Loud?"

The image of ear consist of shade of grey having some texture to present theme of hearing some voices or noise.

The typography saying SHUT UP! is somewhat over powering the ear (noises) having bold, capital, red color with sharp font represents to shut all the noises with frustration. The informal font of text: Why is everyone so loud? reflects the frustration and tiredness of all excessive noises.

Lastly, the color palette having red, grey, black, and white are highly expressive and going well with the theme. Red compliments the color of image (ear) by giving or over powering it and emphasizing the feel of aggression of the text.

"Barcelona Film Festival" for Visual Diary

This grabbed my eyes as the idea of grabbing attention from audience is creative executed for the film festival.

The colors palette is wisely used choosing red for background showing the boldness to grab the attention. The people in white dress with black hats is a great contrast with red showing the importance and intensity of the theme.

The individual wearing hats themed as eyes is symbolizing the idea of seeing, observing, and watching. Through these hats, the designer is creatively conveying the main idea of the film festival where the film are being showcased to the audience.

It also has typography element, BccN, the typography used in the image is clean, bold, and black in color. With capital alphabet in the beginning and end shows the sense of focus and intensity of the festival.

Research Methods

Evolutionary Intelligence Guest: W. Russell Neuman, He is a professor of Media Technology at New York University. His area of expertise are new media and digital education and specialization in IT, Broadband policies and technology. Key questions highlighted in the podcast:

People sharing concerns about AI: Elon Musk: Developing AI is like summoning the demons Late Professor Hawkins: AI would be the last thing that we will develop.

If the technology can be used for bad purpose. There is going to be someone out there to use technology badly. So how do we mitigate risk? And AI itself can harm us.

How to mitigate biases from AI as human has biases too? Who is going to monitor the mitigation of those biases from AI

Questioning the capabilities of Chatgpt?

AI/ Computer/ Technology replicate what we ask they are not intelligent. How do you compare machines with human intelligence?

One day we will have direct human interaction with machine/ computer?

Some of the personal information is there but the machine should give some control to an individual to decide what information / data to be provided.

What’s the term Intelligence Romance mean?

How should we work together to actual see how tech is making us smarter? I choose this topic because I have been feeling to be exposed almost every time with technology. How does this help and challenge human intelligence to be so exposed to technology. As it is rightly said, Technology should empower you not rule over you. Technology and AI is definitely increasing our cognitive abilities but on the other hand by creating so much convenience it is making human dependance on technology. Furthermore, human’s are loosing control on how much their personal data should be shared and to whom it should be shared. The technology / digital surveillance is making human life to some known risks.

The Blind Spot : Why Science cannot Ignore Human Experience Guest: Professor Adam Frank, He is a professor in astrophysicist in department of physics and astronomy at University of Rochester. He is leading the final stages in the lives of stars:

How stars are formed / created?

How start die? Book describes the limitation of scientific methods when it comes to understanding human consciousness and subjective experience. The science excels in explaining physical world but if often overlooks human experience. Key questions highlighted in the podcast:

How the research on concept of time can be negatively affect by this blind spot?

At the foundation / core of obstruction is always human experience we talk about velocity, slowness, fastness. We gauge based on our mind what is slow or fast?

In Western culture we are always looking for absolute value/ concepts/ realities. Whereas, the Eastern culture is bit flexible to understand concept in relative manner. So how both the cultures are adapting this theory?

"Eat Your Landlord!"

I found this humorous piece of art in one of the streets of Dublin while going back to home from College.

So this for anyone living in Dublin and going through this post. Eat your landlord before the landlord eats you.

"Wisdom Flushing down the Drainage"

This creativity piece of art was witnessed while I was crossing by the streets of Dublin. It took my attention so loudly that i glanced at it for a few seconds and recorded it with me.

This piece reflects the reality of us in a very creative manner. It depicts how wisdom is flushing down the drainage, the colorful, bright, and vibrant knowledge/ wisdom liquid flowing out of the bucket (brain/book) is being drained/wasted in the black hole.

The idea of wisdom being slowly diminishing or disappearing is presented visually by using creativity and right palette color either of wisdom or the drainage.

This image depicts how life can be full of colors and how it can reflects on your face once you start enjoying the life. The composition of elements is arranged in center and balanced as well. The color palette used to depict the idea is vibrant hues. The textures visible in the image seems really smooth. The overall feeling and visuals of image is very vibrant and cheerful.

The interesting feature of the image in my opinion is the direction of eyes. The eyes are looking to the upwards direction which give an impression how one should look forward of their lives, positive, growing, elevating, and so on
