Mortar & Pestle

Based on Mr.Radzi Bedu request to the class, we are instructed to do various ideas of alternative function of mortar & pestle for the year 20010. He had done a relative mind map about it and from those elements given (listed), we need to take those element (in number of 5) to came out an idea for the function.

My choice are NOISE, POWER, SUN, BEAUTIFUL & WOOD. Below is the overall view of my whole sketches of ideas.

NOISE, a band in the name of Mortallica's drummer use mortar & pestle as his equipment to make more noise more than anything that have been done before.

SUN, the sun is getting hotter, people use mortar & pestle as sunglass & to rub themselve with sunscreen.

POWER, heroes all over the world uses mortar & pestle as a defensive mechanism & as a baton to fight against the dangerous threat that is crazy bulls.

BEAUTIFUL, to achieve perfection in beauty, women are taking it to the max in 20010 by using mortar & pestle to steam their hair (rebonding) & to rub those wrinkles off their face. No pain no gain

WOOD, woods are running out in 20010, people use mortar & pestle to replace that subject. For example in architecture section.

What i am trying to achieve here to be innovative, simply improving a daily subject (mortar & pestle) to solve many problem which may be the future (also the presence) major crisis. These ideas may be insane & inhuman, and also those ideas that once were taken as a witchcraft & scams like animated pictures & so on. People need to open their mind wider these days because anything is possible now, with all those high-tech gadjet & our unbordered mind thinkers.

Hail Hitler!

Alright! Assalamualaikum & Good day to ya'll...

For my entry of a public figure, i was instructed to either draw or sketch out a public figure and guess who did i chose? (u probably read the title by now) yes! Adolf Hitler! I am not supporting his cause of mass murdering, but i DO respect his ability to influence many people to join him. That is one hard thing to do & gain, but he did achieve that. To those of you who don't have any idea who is Hitler, here is a brief on him from Wikipedia

Adolf Hitler (German pronunciation: [ˈadɔlf ˈhɪtlɐ]; 20 April 1889 – 30 April 1945) was an Austrian-born German politician and the leader of theNational Socialist German Workers Party (German: Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, abbreviated NSDAP), commonly known as the Nazi Party. He was Chancellor of Germany from 1933 to 1945 and, after 1934, also head of state as Führer und Reichskanzler, ruling the country as an absolute dictator of Germany.

A decorated veteran of World War I, Hitler joined the precursor of the Nazi Party (DAP) in 1919 and became leader of NSDAP in 1921. He attempted a failed coup called the Beer Hall Putsch in Munich in 1923, for which he was imprisoned. Following his imprisonment, in which he wrote his book, Mein Kampf, he gained support by promoting German nationalism, anti-semitism, anti-capitalism, and anti-communismwith charismatic oratory and propaganda. He was appointed chancellor in 1933, and quickly transformed the Weimar Republic into the Third Reich, a single-party dictatorship based on the totalitarian and autocratic ideals of national socialism.

Hitler ultimately wanted to establish a New Order of absolute Nazi German hegemony in Europe. To achieve this, he pursued a foreign policy with the declared goal of seizing Lebensraum ("living space") for the Aryan people; directing the resources of the state towards this goal. This included the rearmament of Germany, which culminated in 1939 when the Wehrmacht invaded Poland. In response, the United Kingdom and France declared war against Germany, leading to the outbreak of World War II in Europe.^[2]

big word, JUXTAPOSITION

Assalamualaikum & Hey,

alright! for those who din't get the meaning of this big word, it is simply applied almost as the same meaning of contrast. It is also applied when two object or subject put side by side (in word/saying it, comparing to one another) and both of these object are simply apposite to one other.

Example (with picture!)

This is the first juxtaposition that pop up in my mind when the word was spoken. Angels & demons, this is a common & most familiar clear contrast among ourself. So how juxtaposition helps creative mind work?

In this "dark day" (lol) there are so many needs of media, this include web designing, storyline development, movies, game creation, and many more. Most of these items developer tend to forget the spice that trigger audience's needs. Thats where juxtaposition came in, it helps the audience to immediately recognize a certain character (hero/villian), situation (order/chaos) and many more that helps the author to make their work lesser in aspect of describing and explaining.

Juxtaposition may be ignored and may be misunderstood or completely forgotten by some people but this is one of the main root of success for a certain project, it provide easy comparison, recognition and understanding.

Mind Maps : It Came From The Brain!

Assalamualaikum,

As promised, I will briefly discuss about mind map. To start, we will have the definition of mind map from our most trusty source, Wikipedia!

"A mind map is a diagram used to represent words, ideas, tasks, or other items linked to and arranged around a central key word or idea. Mind maps are used to generate, visualize,structure, and classify ideas, and as an aid in study, organization,problem solving, decision making, and writing"

Yes, mind map act as a list to visualize, classify in order for us gain an advantage to understand or to ease our understanding on a certain subject matter which will be highlighted (in the middle of the plain, big in size & probably in capital letters). Logical mindmap is basically a mind map that is relate information logically. It usually leads to stereotypes (as I mentioned in the previous post) which is totally useless to solve a serious problem because stereotypes leads to typical idea and typical ideas are usually are the first thought of solving the problem. Thus, it is not wise to do so in serious problem which requires a far more vast mind thinking.

To conclude, here is my little mind map about myself, Enjoy! Cheers!

Stereotypes!

I was introduced to stereotypes last few weeks & that is our little topic for this entry, stereotypes!

Basically we all know, a stereotype is usually focus on a person or a group of people, to generalize their behaviour, lifestyle, attitudes and looks. Stereotype typically consider to be generally negative impression of the target but it not USUALLY ALL negative, for example a compassionate, loving stereotype mother that have been portrait many many times as long as I can ever remember...

Aside from that, stereotype can be also refered to many things. For example, events & solutions. This can be easily visualise, portray in a logical mind map which we will discuss in the next entry.

Before we depart, observe these few examples of logical mind map for our little knowledge & what to come in the next post

Creativity, Innovative & Inventive

As we previously discussed, every human was born with a sense of creativity. On he/she develop/improve that creativity to better or worse, it is up to him/her. Through great creativity and different way of thinking, a new kind of idea came out, that idea is innovative.

"Innovation is a change in the thought process for doing something or "new stuff that is made useful". It may refer to an incremental emergent or radical and revolutionary changes in thinking, products, processes, or organizations."

information taken from wikipedia.

Invention also came from great way of creative thinking. However, invention required great knowledge for it creates new creation. Invention usually relate with scientific and technical.

Creativity, Innovative & Inventive is needed for us human to success and excel in our daily life.
