Creative Studies Class - Week 6 !

For this week class, I think it was an interesting class for me than previous class. Because in class we are doing an interesting activity, that is making a mind map. I know usually people will say doing mind map is a boring activity, but this time, at this class, the lecturer make it more fun. The mind map is about mortar and pestle.


We have to draw it on a piece of paper, then the lecturer brief us on the situation on what to write for the paper. The situation is like this, "If an alien find this mortar & pestle, what will they use it at their place?". Is it interesting? Yes, definitely it an interactive activity because everyone in the class need to find the usage of it as an alien. Then it is time for us to tell and share what it is use for. Some said that it is use for combat, the pestle as the weapon and the mortar as the shield. My idea is that it act as a transport. The mortar as the carrier and the pestle as the the handle. For me, I like this kind of activity, because it generates my mind and become more active.

Next, the lecturer shows us some picture for us to interpret what kind of juxtaposition have in it. We have to relate the picture with the world, what it tries to communicate with us. As for an example, the lecturer show us a HSBC's picture. The picture have a crocodile and a bird and it is about risk in bank if I am not mistaken. For me, for the first time I tried to interpret it, I think the crocodile as the bank and the bird as the customer. So, the risk we can see that the customer have to be more careful if making an investment with the band. That is just my opinion.

Thank you. :D
