For me, this movie provides us how to confront the copyright bravely. If you neglect why you should respect yourself and protect your piece from others'imitation, obviously, some people will steal your creativity, and even so they aren't good at panting at all. Moreover, it is possible that your talent will be hidden behind these painting.
Most importantly, whatever you do everything, you have to know what your purpose is on your piece in advance. In this way, you will produce the real piece belonging to yourself.
Today, we took a great opportunity to visit the Graduate Diploma show. After that, for me, I specially prefer to introduce "Creativity start" with a pen'' because I have used Japanese ball-point pen for a long time. Perhaps, it affects me a lot on my experience such as making a note, and writing the essay.
Honestly, a large number of ball-piont pens in markets are very fancy and decorative. Therefore, it is obviously competitive between these brands. Thus, the student, Nana Aoki, produces the distinctive commercial film for this campaign. It is because he would like to show how to use the pen at different situation by creativity industries. This is a better way to convey the audiences how to experience the pen to enjoy their creative life.
Personally, I worked in Adverting agent before, so this film accutlly gives me more different ideas about my main course, and even my future career as well. Furthermore, I believe whatever you are interest in something in your daily life, you could choose one of them to observe specifically. In the meanwhile, you can comprehand why the product or ideas are designed for the global market.
In conclusion, I would like to recommend you to collect any ideas from your experence and apply to your piece. It could truely advantage some audiences or comsumers to gain the new thought. That is why we went to visit this exhibition.
What sort of architecture will attract and influence people to go inside?
In the Shanghai 2010 Expo,the UK pavilion(fig.1) designed by Heathwick studio is to represent the relationship between creature and environment wisely. Obviously, this is a key to over 70 million and even the next generation because it brings a distinctive and intricate image to visitors' mind at the same time,especially texture. Moreover, it also becomes one of the most five popular attractions. On the other hand, there are lots of issues about eco-friedly architecture across the world; nevertheless, lots of people are still lack of this kinds of the common sense so. Therefore, each architecture from houses to building, it should embed within the eco-freiendly design elements to help cities become more sustainable. Personally, I believe the greatest architecture will lead all of people to chase unexpected future bravely. In other words, it is better to understand how important people should focus on improving this environment.
Today, we fortunately watched this maker of documentary in the class.
"What's ART" for? Why are we going to attend and support maker's movement?
Actually, it is more likely to discover something difference from rubbish, even though someone consider these of them are useless and unworthy. What if we could be trying to image everything around you? This might produce something is happening. In the meanwhile, Someone can aggressively design for his daily life to make life interesting, On the other hand, Industry revolution can educate people how to customize for consumers correctly. Not only it facilitates localized manufacturing, but also giving more economy and education to residents. Therefore, whatever who you are, you should own a ability of improving this society by your hands.
Then, what's important to creative art and even design, we should connect to different people in terms of different countries, and professional field.
How well do we work together in our group?
Certainly, this is team work. All we can do is to collaborate with each other.
In the meantime, it seams to us that it's quite challenged to go for this project in only 2 weeks.
This reason is because all the team members educated by different cultures need to learn how to get along with each other and listen to different opinions.
Last Saturday, we were pleased to be there.
Moreover, this was fantastic experience we never have had before.
From nothing to generating ideas, actually, we spent a long time on discuss how to approach our proposal, even though we have conflicted with each other constantly. During the project, it is clear that everyone is a crucial part of the team and plays an important role model in terms of our specialties.
Whatever we come from, we enable to focus on this project smoothly due to the fact that we all
know what object we are going to hit and how to organise everything. This project consists of simple ideas; nevertheless, it gives people should be aware of the environment where they are living and destroying.
Afterwards, we finally come out that people throughout the world purposely ignore how negative they are proceeding to produce mad-made pollution, at the same time, they even want to pursuit the better life. Therefore, we would like to kick off this project with photography which mixes with illustrations. By doing this, this can influence children to understand how important we all should be responsible for protecting the earth.
In sum, we hope to provide children to think about the environment as much as possible by our photos. Then, they can take an action to tell other people how they can decrease all kinds of the pollution and prevent it from man-made damages.
We are the world, we are the children.

From my point of view, AI WEI WEI is really a celebrated artist and detector in China or even across the world. He bravely tends to discover something reality in China, in the meantime, he also reveals China government used to mask what happened to this society such as Sichuan(四川) earthquake, which depends on their more and more powerful politics. Moreover, he has made lots of efforts to push government to listen to people's voice in China, but eventually he still can't fight against China government and he was suddenly jailed for 81 days.
However, his piece, especially "NEVER SORRY", which aggressively explain why he never apologizes to some people and government because they always attempt to respond people's request behind reality. By do this, some people in China gradually believe that AI WEI WEI could lead them to freedom.
Compared with China, similarly in Taiwan, there are a couple of issues which are unfair and produced under the table. For instance, the content of history textbook from high school has slightly modified and does not match to the correct reality. After that, most students get started parading the street to appeal for making the right decision in education. Actually, it is proceeding as planned in Taiwan.
Art Review for Dominant Language
This basic idea is to show how language is controlling yourself and this society across the world.
Without doubt, Language is quite crucial for communicating and embracing with people.
In the video she produced, it can be seen that it combines a variety of language such as French, Spanish, English and so on, with her piece. In the meantime, she made this video by stop-motion animation along with clips that she has collected during her journey to London.
In my opinion, it doesn't only explain that Language would be dominant to interpret what you think of, but also it can point out that any kinds of ideas should be conveyed by correct and appropriate language which mean people have to use these for different kinds of situation.
Shortly, from this video, personally I believe language can bring people to live in perfect harmony rather than it just causes people to misunderstand each other, In addition, to learning another language is quite helpful to compare with different culture. Thus, you could take this opportunity to benefit your life experience.
Finding your way
By doing this project 2, I have continuously generated ideas about my career in progress. In the meantime, I get started memorising all of these by filming or photographing because I believe images are usually touching enough to be worth collecting. Actually, time is fly and lots of moments disappear I am afraid.
Through this trip in Oxford, as to me, I try to walk slowly across the street and browse some stylish stores where I really fall in love. In addition, whatever galleries or museums I visit, this gives me more different thinking and how to criticize artists' works objectively.
From my experience, I have ever tripped to another country alone with the aim of recognizing and finding my way, Most importantly, I personally consider that everything I have been participating in will be beneficial to overcome a variety of difficulties.
Finally, I recommend you to watch a movie called "CHEF", which is a little bit of comedy and ridiculous. The reason is because the chef create more and more ideas to chill out by doing his special dishes. Therefore, he eventually find out the lovely relationship between family is the key to his success.
about place, locality, time, distance and
measurement.
Works using raw materials and my human
scale
in the reality of landscapes.
The music of stones, paths of shared
foot marks,
sleeping by the river's roar.
Long has commented about this work:
Nature has always been recorded by artists,
from prehistoric cave paintings to twentieth-century landscape photography. I
too wanted to make nature the subject of my work, but in new ways. I started
working outside using natural materials like grass and water, and this evolved
into the idea of making a sculpture by walking … My first work made by walking,
in 1967, was a straight line in a grass field, which was also my own path,
going ‘nowhere’. In the subsequent early map works, recording very simple but
precise walks on Exmoor and Dartmoor, my intention was to make a new art which
was also a new way of walking: walking as art.
(Tufnell 2007, p.39.) / Reference：http://www.vam.ac.uk/

"The only real voyage of discovery
consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes; in seeing the
universe through the eyes of another, one hundred others - in seeing the
hundred universes that each of them sees."
in search of lost time(1922, Marcel Proust)
Normally, most people tend to live in their comfort zone, and therefore they apparently used to go to the same place such as restaurants, stores, etc. Perhaps, they might try to wander the street and browse the trendy stylish shops as a way to relax and unwind.
Even though they walk along the street near home, I believe it is quite heady to find out something new. For instance, a man come to talk to you with his feeling suddenly, in the meantime, there are interesting and crazy things given by him. This could help you generate unique ideas and experience better life. Absolutely, having new eyes will embrace your new world. Thus, it is not a day dream!
From unknown to comprehension, it's a unexpected and spiritual journey for me.
Through losing yourself, I will push myself to accept change and reality. Then, I will specifically focus on a lovely part of process you have to encounter until the end.
Actually, sometimes I am afraid of losing everything I ever had, but how come I leave my hometown for Europe to discover what I never have seen. Obviously, I have found the answer to question here.
In sum, personally I really prefer to look at Richard Long's photographs, especially
"A line by walking." It represents how he got along with himself in a harmony while he traveled to another places alone. As a result, he was getting started making his first work in 1967 in England. After that, he has never gotten off his fantastic trip so far.
What's next? It's up to you! Before taking a day trip, check Richard Long's works out first.
TAICHI
Ju Ming is Taiwanese sculptor working in wide range of materials including wood, bronze, and styrofoam, ceramics and glass. This work is one of Ju's series on the theme taichi, inspired by the phsical practice and mental discipline of this ancient art of boxing.
Personally, this work is formed by abstract image compared to real image,
but it still gives me the glorious atmosphere.
GOD IN COLOUR These works really look colourful and patterned! Perhaps, This way might be close to God.
This exhibition of over twenty full-size
colour reconstructions of Greek and Roman sculptures challenges the popular
notion of classical white marble sculpture. It shows that ancient statues were
far more colourful, complex, and exuberant than is often thought.
These vividly show lots of ancient Greece and Roman's stories through colourful sculptures
so that tourists can understand all of them clearly.

DIRECTOR'S CUT: In a series of monthly
blogs,
Paul Hobson reflects on current developments in contemporary art:
"In the 1960s and 1970s, artists began
to draw attention to the constructed nature of our identities. Continuing this
line of critique, artists of the current generation are frequently representing
an idea of identity that is not only constructed, but that is unstable, mutable
and inconsistent." (MODERN ART OXFORD, 2015)
Contemporary art gives me how to reconstruct thinking you learnt before because I can find out new media and technique used in this exhibition, especially Lynn Hershman. Obviously, she is a funny and crazy artist I think.She entirely spreads out her interactive art, which the relationship between real and virtual worlds.
The Breathing Machines, a series of was casts of artist face and positioned in a perspex box along with a tape recorder playing breathing sound.(ORIGINS OF THE SPECIES PART 2,2015)
Honestly, I am close to this art work and look at it in detail. Thus I am a little bit afraid of playing breathing sound. However, it gives me more creative ideas which inspire me how to organise new media and chaos with works in perfect harmony.
Shortly, the title of the exhibition refers
to the topic which the artist has explored most often – the impact, both
detrimental and otherwise, of technology on our lives and identities.
(Aesthetica Magazine, 2015) Actually, she really attempts to
use unique ways to convey her original thinking.
As to me, all of these works from her truly
enlighten me on my feature career, even though her ideas often show conflicts
between aesthetic and concept. In other words,
I highly appreciate that I can attend to
her fantastic art trip and find ways to lose myself.Finally, it seems to me
that art is motivating and interacting, and even it can reflect on this
society.

This film I watched is called "Art School Confidential", that is to say, which occurred in the campus without doubt. Therefore, it is quite related to real life for university students.
To begin with, I have no ideas about this film, even though I have watched this preview about this film. However, I am gradually attracted by its exaggeration and a bit suspense. In the meanwhile, I get started expecting what Jerome is going to do next.
In fact, this film just reflects on the real life through actors' dramatic performance which impresses and touches audiences more. Furthermore, it gives lots of meaningful messages behind this story.
Jerome recognises that everyone doesn't care about him. Nevertheless, he still has a great talent about his painting and even it is found by Audrey finally.
Personally, I think Jerome tends to figure out who he is extremely whatever he wants to suicide or take Jimmy's work. Perhaps, his measure is quite violent.
Think about your real life compared to this film whether this is quite similar to yours or not.
Certainly, TO BE SENT TO PRISON is NOT YOUR BEST CHOICE,RIGHT?
Really I'm an asshole, because that's my true nature.
"Be myself"
This lesson plays a important role in a real life.
I really like to admire Yoshida Hiroshi's
woodblock prints because he tried to describe India's life and architectures
vividly by his works. In the meanwhile, it can be seen that the India lifestyle such as social class system clearly reveals in the past. Before I
am going to the Ashmolean museum, I can't wait for visiting this exhibition.
In 1930, Japanese printmaker Yoshida
Hiroshi (1876–1950) spent several months travelling in India and Southeast
Asia.After his return to Japan he produced a
series of woodblock prints inspired by his travels. This is a display of prints
from the collection of Avijit and Chobi Lahiri.
In my opinion, his works are similar to India history, which completely show India people were engaged in their social activities in the past. In addition, I think he experienced lots of things in India and demonstrate his view by his work widely. It is real to show us how India looks like.
Artist's introduction
Hiroshi Yoshida (吉田博 , September 19, 1876 – April 5,
1950) was a 20th-century Japanese painter and woodblock printmaker. He is
regarded as one of the greatest artists of the shin-hanga style, and is noted
especially for his excellent landscape prints. Yoshida travelled widely, and
was particularly known for his images of non-Japanese subjects done in
traditional Japanese woodblock style, including the Taj Mahal, the Swiss Alps,
the Grand Canyon, and other National Parks in the USA.
