If we apply X-Ray technique on human's thought? How would it be?

Good or Bad? Do we know how to differentiate?

Well, i knew.

FOURTH LESSON :: Associated Mind Map "MORTAR & PESTLE" ::

Picture below is my drawing about Mortar and Pestle.

I have choosen five different things as the functions of mortar and pestle. They are SUN, POWER, MEDICAL, MONEY and HEAVY.

Mortar can be the umbrella to protect people from sunlight. For the pestle, it can be transform into telescope by drilling a hole, so people can see trhrough the pastle. By overlapping a lot of pestle, it can build up a tent too.

The reason that i choose medical is because mortar and pestle can make medicine. Its fuction suits for everyone, different race as well.

Heavy, the first sight i saw this term, whats appeared in my mind is a funny scene. It was a kid playing seesaw with himself, another side was a heavy rock, and the character of heavy rock playing is Balance. Thats all!

The second funny things from my mind is, use mortar and pestel to create money. Besides, it also can increase the value of money. The only way, also is the easiest way to create money is, by putting some papers and water into the mortar then beat them with pestle as hard as you can!

Lastly, i would transform mortar as the crown and pestle as the staff of King!!! *can you imagine on that? ohyea, im genius, haha*

In the previous lesson, my lecture has mentioned about left-handed and right-handed. Im interested with it so i have done some researches after class.

I found a website, which is listphile.com, they have a list of Famous Left Handed People and proud to say that im familiar with some of those names.

Those famous left-handed people are Albert Einstein, Barack Obama, Justin Bieber, Lady GaGa, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo Buonaroti and Pink. *im glad about this!*

Another website i found is quite funny, even it's name. The website is beinglefthanded.com and it has a particular topic, it is all about Left-Handed. They talk about Left-Handed Test, Left-Handed T-shirt, Left-Handed Birthday, Left-Handed Writing Skills, Left-Handed Astronuts and Left-Handed Guitar Hero! *It is quite interesting, you might free some time to read about it*

Well, i would slightly talk about an article which entitled Left-Handed Brain. *You might read this before continue.*

My opinion of the first paragraph is, it is good to use right brain to process things. Because right brained people tend to be more creative and left brained person is more analytical. They have different advantages, but, lefties hate calculation and always fail his/her mathmatics paper. For the righties, parts of them hate to draw perspective drawing. Now, is my turn to ask "is this good or bad?"

A part from that, the disadvantage for a Chinese who being left-handed is the moment to write chinese calligraphy. 3000 years ago, chinese calligraphy used to write with right-hand, so a chinese-lefty might get a low marks in PMR chinese paper. *pity*

In the main page of beinglefthanded.com, the eye-chatcy blue title "If Being Left Handed Is Wrong, I Don't Want To Be Right", is just like a motive energy for lefties to proud of themself as a 'lefty'.

THIRD LESSON :: Mind Mapping is the Method Of Creative Thinking ::

During my secondary school, i used to jotting notes by using mindmap technique. When i taking diploma in college, lecturer used to ask students pour their ideas by using brainstorming technique. Both techniques can be plain and simple or full with color and complicated. Until i proceed to Degree, i just realize the existence of classified mind map, which is Logical Mind Map and Associated Mind Map. After doing some research about mindmap, i do learnt something from it.

Mindmaping and Brainstorming are two different tools to analyze ideas and problems. For me, Brainstorming is a way of list down own's problems by own's inclination. But, for Logical Mind Map, those extended words or pictures from the central title have related to stereotype. As my knowledge, stereotype means people has a fixed opinion or view on certain objects. In changingminds.org website, stereotype has defined in three categorize, u might click here for details. And, in the Associated Mind Map, between the central title and extended words and pictures are not connected, the meaning in between the extended words and pictures can be fantasy or illusion.

Below was a mind mapping of myself. It is simple and included my biodata, hometwon, and education background as well.

My weekly CS note :)

"Before ending, i would like to tell why my mindmap drew in 'food-style'. Yesterday, i woke up early in the morning and rush into class without having breakfast. After my 2hours Korean class which started at 8am, followed by another 2hours was Creative Studies Lecture. During the 2hours lecture, i was starving for food, then i just transform my imagination on my notes. Thats why my mindmap have burger, waffer and coke. LOL"

"Lots of creative people living in different lands, doing different things, and playing different characters. What they are having is different, but the same things they are doing is filling the earth with colors, with arts."

"Art, like an unlimited well to quench our's thirst. We learn from it and express ourself from it."

The two paragraphs above is my 'sudden' opinion about Art. If you not agree with me, please just ingore it, or you may leave your opinion in the end of this page. I would appreciate it.

John Pugh, born in 1948, a man who expert in drawing 3D mural and street art. From Wikipedia, a mural is any piece of artwork painted directly on a wall, ceiling or other large permanent surface.

SECOND LESSON :: Novelty, Creativity, Innovation and Invention ::

Novelty, Creativity, Innovation and Invention are formed by different alphabetes, but, from wikipedia, i found in between them have some common explaination.

1. Novelty is the quality of being new, and derived from Latin word is 'New'.
2.Creativity is the ability to generate innovative ideas and manifest them from thought into reality.
3. Innovation is a change in the thought process for doing something, or the useful application of new inventions or discoveries.
4.Inventions often extend the boundaries of human knowledge or experience.

Each of the sentence has the meaning of 'In the epoch-making era, every different field ought to be up-to-date'. For instance, everyone knew about the oil-leaking in Maxico, but has anyone think of any effective ways to stop it? Well, i think, human are God's creation, only He can stop it. Perhaps, the day after tomorrow David Copperfield will offer himself to cleanup the gulf?

"well, if any magician can perform this kind of magic, it will be most updated magic performance ever."

BP = Beach Polluter "tat's creative!!"

Besides that, there was another case which happened in Malaysia, was the demolished of historical building- Pudu jail. When i saw the news, the first thing came into my mind was 'pudu jail should be kept and preserved as tourist attraction!' It was not a flawless building, but it's historical value had last for 115years, and Malaysia authorities decided to redevelope it into a commercial area. The taken action has made me reflect on the significance of 'up-to-date' and 'out-to-date'. I think about it repeatly, and finally there is a conclusion for myself.

" Everything in this world works like human's body, they metabolize themself. When a new creation launched, people will blindly follow the trend, and after it has stayed for a long time, it will be replaced by another up-to-date creation. The benefits its bring also will be forgotten."

My weekly CS note :)

ll :: Sharing Creative Thought ::

Today, i gonna introduce an amazing brooklyn artist who can paint realistic human! His name is David Jon Kassan and his painting skills is just like Leonardo da Vinci!

i bet you will wow from the first painting till the last. *wink*

real people standing by the wall ?

realistic wrinkles show that was an old man.


David has painted the emotion, do you think so?

spiritual expression, especially the eyes.

every single details were carefully drawn.

What i thought about after seeing David's drawing, it is the importance of human's self perception. No one can draw things without the understanding of surrounding environment, and 'keep on sharpenning myself' is the best phrase suit for everyone.

Below this is a video of David's real life drawing. The way he drew is absolutely incredible and fantastic, everyone may have a look on it!

How was your feeling after watching his video? tumbs up right? Yes, i bet everyone will.

And now, below this is another video about drawing an old man by using Apple Ipad !

There are more excellent paintings, drawing and videos in his website. Please go for his website and learn from him!
