In the class, we were given 2 set of words and we have to choose a number from 1~99. After that, list down the number to both sets of words. From that, we need to visualize the image based on the words that we get.
For me, my number are 52, 08, 17. The words for mine are:
52 = Fire, Rock Sentence: The fire being put out by lots of rock.
08 = Fly, Wood Sentence: The fly look like a wood.
17 = Flower, Tree Sentence: The flower is falling down from a tree.
Poem: Love and Chili
Love is just like eating chilies. It taste nice but spicy. Someone likie it and someone not. Once you like it, you never forget it. Once you found you true love, You never stop loving her.
Juxtaposition can be defined as the act of positioning 2 or more different words together that relate them together, especially to show comparison and contrast. There is a movie name ‘Orphan’ which directed by Jaume Collet-Serra in 2009.
There is juxtaposition in this movie. Actually the young girl name Esther is a blood crime murderer. She is a abnormal in a physical and mentality. The already kill a few family and try to seduce the man in the family. Then, if she failed to do that, she will start killing everyone in the house. Before that, she look just like a pretty little princess than well taught with manners and discipline, but in the end, she turns out to be the one which are very terrify and horror.

Lesson 5 Juxtaposition Exercise
MAN- GOLDFISH TIED WITH SHARK FIN Man is like goldfish tied with shark fin. Although they are not the best from inside but they still trying to be the best from outside. LOVE- A CUP OF TEA Love is like a cup of tea. They don’t seem to be bitter and they are not sweet at all. Is depends on how sweet you want it to be by adding sugar.
LOVE- CREDIT CARDS Love is like credit cards. When you using the credit cards, it is easy for you but after that, you will feel the burden in it by paying all the bills.
HAPPINESS- CLOCKS Happiness is like clocks. The clocks ticks and the time fly. Happiness will not last long because if there is happiness there sure will be sadness, just like the clocks that start from 12 and end up being at 12 again. PAIN- ICE-CREAM Pain is like ice-cream. Time is need for pain to melt down just like ice-cream, melting slowly.
LIFE- BURNING FIRE Life is like burning fire. When you are young, you are strong enough to do everything but when you get old, you can’t do anything just like the burning fire. Once there is nothing for them to burn down, they will poof gone!
This is the video I found in YouTube that is from one of our senior’s work. The video is all about associated mind map. They did in a group. I found it quite interesting although the video is a bit boring but the way they create the mind map is impressive by linking every key word from Cyberpreneurship. Then, at the very end, the whole empty space was filling up with key words and it somehow link back to Cyberpreneurship. This is the video below.
This lesson is all about the mortar and pastel. In the lecture, we had been given a task. The given task is all about how we create a new way of using mortar and pastel based on the key words that we had chosen from the mind map that Mr Radzi shown us. For me, I’ve chosen the 5 words which are money, exercise, devil, medical, and married.
1. Money.
Mortar is the place where all the gold chips or bars are place. Then, it was heat at the mean while using the pastel to smash it. After that, the smashed and melted gold can be use to do money and coins.
2. Exercise.
While push up, the mortar is tie up on behind the head and the pastel is tie up on the bicep. The mortar and pastel are tie up for the purpose of putting on weight so that the person using this can improve the strength and stamina.
3. Devil
My idea, devil of mortar and pastel are use to bless a certain people and cursed away the evil spirit. The mortar is the place where people put the things that where Chinese people use for praying and the pastel is the place where people put the cups on.
4. Medical
However, medical purpose for mortar and pastel are use to cure the numb legs by positioning the mortar on the knee cap and the pastel is use to hit onto the mortar to create a impact that help to cure the numb.
5. Married
There are 2 kids that are bond which have a agreement that when they grown up, the will marry each other. When this happen, the guy will have the pastel while the girl will have mortar and when the time comes, they will exchange the mortar and pastel as the symbol of the agreement. Besides, it also use as a purpose of recognisation of this 2 kids.
Mind mapping actually helps lots of us gain ideas. How can we create a mind map? Before that, I would like to share the video that teach us how to create mind map by TracyEGardner. She had shown a lot of tips of how to create a good mind map. First of all, fill in the empty space on the paper by inserting different colours of key words or key phrase. Then, expand again from the key phrase/ key words.
This is the mind map that I’ve brought up which is about me. All my information what I like and what i don’t. Most of all, I position my family members at the very middle because they are very important and mean a lot to me.
As you can see, I used different colours for different information of mine. I first drawn by hand and digitize through a computer that I wish to name it the ‘Mind map Tree of Jason’.
In lesson 2, it is all about this novelty, creativity, innovation and invention. Somehow, creative people always generate new ideas. There are many types of creativity. There is creativity with value behind it and there is creativity which without a value behind it. For example, just like the picture of a paper clip and a book page holder. Both of these are really good idea and very efficient but the majority of consumers are on paper clips because it is very useful and cheap where everyone get use to it compare to the book page holder. Somehow, invention of paper clips really changes the culture of society. The book page holder can be consider as a personal satisfaction creativity only ‘REMEMBER!!.. DON'T FEAR OF FAILURE. FACE THE PROBLEM AND ENCOUNTER IT. THATS HOW PEOPLE SUCCESS!!.
Lesson 2
Novelty can be defined as the freshness of an idea. Ideas that make you stand out from the others and be special. These pictures will explain what novelty is.For example, The Basket Building which its founder is Dave Longaberger, the manufacturer of wooden basket. This building is the headquarters of their products that also helps a lot in advertising their products too. However, this is one of the examples of novelty architectural. They imply the concept of novelty which making them stand out and be special.
.
Besides, Burj al Arab in Dubai the world second tallest building which designed by Tom Wright (architect); turn out to be the world’s first “7-star” hotel. He designed the building as a symbol of the sail of a boat and the speed of Dubai’s urbanisation.
In addition, the Walt Disney Concert Hall by Frank Gehry, now appear to be a place for tourism.
The above are all novelty architectural buildings which already explain the meaning of novelty.
Innovation is that improve a old idea and creating a new product base on the improved idea. For example, from a normal colourless cell phone to currently I-Phone 4G. The functions of this model 4G are extremely incredible as in shown in the video.
Creativity can be defined as the new ideas that will be involved in the invention of item objects also known as the ability or skills to invent a new product. However, it reminds me of the movie Inception by Christopher Nolan. His creativity is the one that bring out the story line of Inception. This movie is incredible because of the twisting of the story that shows how creative Nolan is. The image below is the image of Inception that I found in Google search.
Lesson 2 Class exercise: Creating Image of a Public Figure TIM BURTON
Famous for his dark, quirky themed movies such as Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, The Nightmare Before Christmas and blockbusters like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Batman Returns and recently Alice in Wonderland, Burton is an Academy Award- and Golden Globe-nominated American film director, producer, writer and artist. His most valued friend and often seen in his movies is none other than Johnny Depp. Burton has directed 14 films as of 2010 and produced 9 as of 2009. Rumors have said that Burton will be directing a 3D animation adaptation from the Addams Family. (Can’t wait! :D)
What is creativity? From what I know, creativity can be defined as by creating something useful, imaginative and useful enough to contribute towards the society. Creativity includes 2 big processes. First of all is the thinking part and then follow up by the producing part. As if you have lots of creative ideas but you didn’t follow up or act on them still you are imaginative but you are not creative. For example, if Karl Benz came out with blue prints of car but he just stop there without following up still he is now going any closer towards creativity. Because of Karl Benz and his creativity, in this era there only have what so we call a car. Besides, wearing unique clothing and having a special hair cut doesn’t mean you are creative. You are just trying to be special from the others. On the other hand, there is a guy/girl invented something and contributed it towards the society, that is what we call being special at the same time being creative. This is what I learn from the lesson being taught.
This is the picture of my friend Nurul Syahirah.
I created this picture to show how Nurul Syahirah is. She is a very funny and interesting person. She always keeps a positive mind set. The big smile of her is to show that she is a very happy and fun person to make friend with. I wish this picture could represent the cool person of her.
Lesson 1 Creativity
The butter stick is amazing and very efficient. Things evolved based on the revolution of culture and environment. Butter stick is very easy to use and is easier to bring along compare to the big butter we kept in the fridge. It was invented by Courtesy Kenji Kawakami, 1995. This is a creative invention.
