KEN ROBINSON "SCHOOLS KILL CREATIVITY"

first, let me share this video to you: 


After you watched this video, what are you thinking now? what is your opinion??
Ken told us that ART is a part of education and for me ART IS THE BEST EDUCATION!

Nowadays many schools only concentrate on Science or Social subjects and this is absolutely kill creativity part or skills of the students. who said art can't teach us anything and doesn't has any prospect in the future?? Even some people always thought that art just the subjects that is not important and being a reason for F student on science subjects to continuing his education lives and free from all that calculative things.. but the truth is art NOT that kind of knowledge! 

what a boring life, they want to be genius but
what they got just something more
confusing  -___-

let's go back to the past when we are still a toddler, what did attracted us when we see something for the first time? the answer is color. Color is the main part of art and can't be separated from it. And then what we always do when we studying in kindergarten? you know it is drawing right? 

in the kindergarten, children learn something through arts like singing,
drawing and dancing. 

we never realized that we already learn about art since we don't know anythings, that's why art is part of knowledge, part of learning something, also part of education..

Last, don't forget even you like art it doesn't meant you are stupid. We are art student smart in our way and it called Creative!

A+ for creativity ^^

TITANIC: Something we know and we don't know...

When we heard Titanic we will flash back to 1997-1990 when all that unforgettable romantic scenes in the best movie directed by James Cameron come to our mind. But did you know history behind Titanic?



RMS Titanic  was a British passenger liner that sank in the North Atlantic Ocean on 15 April 1912 after colliding with an iceberg during her maiden voyage from Southampton, UK to New York City, US. The sinking of Titanic caused the deaths of 1,502 people in one of the deadliest peacetime maritime disasters in modern history.


The question now is "Why did the Titanic hit the iceberg?"

Some facts said there were 6 ice warnings received by Titanic on the day of the collision. They were all ignored by the wireless operator who was preoccupied with transmitting passenger messages. So when this facts burst around the worlds all people said that this tragedy was Edward Smith (the Captain of Titanic at that time) fault. At that time the Titanic was traveling 22.5 knots while cruising through iceberg laden waters,  just 5 knot from her maximum speed capability. 

               






SOLUTIONS BEHIND RANDOM WORDS

RANDOM  WORDS..
This technique provides a means of producing blind variation of ideas through the use of random words to produce a rich variety of unpredictable ideas.

Juxtaposition and Random Words was a different technique but seems similar.

So, for Random words examples like these:

HOW TO MAKE A PERSON STOP SMOKING IN 6 MONTHS TIME??
Random word: Traffic Light

This is the Random Word
This is the problem    
    
  So, these are my solutions:

1. Dirty -----> cigarettes can make your mouth and teeth smells and colored like a shit..
hmmm.... wanna smell like this in front of girls/boys?




 2. Metal ------> If you smoking cigarettes, maybe you can die as soon as you do that.
                          Because that cigarettes has sharps and tiny metal inside.

yes, you make your life like an EPIC short stories -___-





3. Colors -----> This is the most simple idea, only put Green, Yellow, and Red        
                           at the cigarettes just to remind the smokers what will
                           happen to them next.....

you already meet your.. Mama??

COMBINE IT AND MAKE A DIFFERENT THINGS!


Talking about combination, fusion or anything else related with two different ideas and concepts reminds me to many great innovation. This concept really helpful and become a great solution for the better life. But how to know the ideas really work or not? Let me give you the example what we called “Juxtaposition”

I have 9 words and I will try to combine it based on the number that I choose!

this is the 9 words that i will combine

I will choose 16, 10, 94 and then I will combined it, make a sentences based on that word and make the illustration…
the words that i already combined
This is the illustrations:

Leavemountain
Flowerspider
Flowerhead
That’s the examples of juxtaposition concept.

Another example of juxtaposition is analogy concepts like this:

Love: "Love is like a chili, even some people hate it
they will addicted to it when they try to taste it"

But sometimes not all different ideas will work out together as we want, just imagine if Body Shop that want to save nature combine with Shell that can destroy nature. It will not work right???

And the last is, I will try to combined something that will dangerous for us and only make a chaos to our life (this is a bad example to combined something and will not work or useful for anyone)
Combination of Leopard and Eagle :
if this creature really exist, of course not only human kind that will
be in danger.. All kinds in this world also
That is dangerous right? Why not try to make it like this?

MIND MAP --> THE BEST WAY TO BE CREATIVE AND SMART


Are you still doing this to make note??



Why you not try to make a different way to make something important like note become more interesting and not boring like that??

Mind map is the best way for someone that easily bored to read their notes and feel stress as soon as they look at it. With mind map they can remember what they got easily, they also can do some stuff to make it more interesting like put a hand-drawing and make it more colorful like this..



Mind map can stimulate our brain to remember something based on what color we see and what  information and point we get at that time. Mind map also make our brain work more balanced because we used both side of brain, left and right side.
