Random word/ Image association

Can you, guys connect some idea with the image of LOVE?
Taking love as the main topic by solving the problem of writing a letter.
Figure out an images that represent writing letter with connection of love.
??????????????????


Hmmm....Hmmmm...
Is time for brain storming...
Create a mind map of it....
With those words.....



Association Time~~
Connect the words with the main topic.
Select the sub-topic

Kiss: Kissing the letter before sent it.
Valentine's Days: Writes about the special moment of being together.
etc....


Ideas will pop out when doing such pratice.....
Finalize,
Will have an very representative image
Just like:


Random Association is to help students, researchers to explore ideas by associate image and words.

"The research focuses on how the brain creates new ideas and how this is related to associations and memory.As the participant works to combine the two disparate concepts to create a novel idea, brain-imaging techniques are used to observe how and in what order different parts of the brain respond to these word pairs."

By research conducted at the Institute for Research in Cognitive Science at the University of Pennsylvania."


By this method we can learn how to explore new creative ideas.>.<

Juxtaposition - Images to Words


Theme : Coffee
Topic : Love, Life
" Life could be as simple as the color of coffee;
Pure black color.

When
love come into life,
Is like the coffee mate;
It changes the color of life;
Is kind of intimately.

Every type of coffee,
Has its own love story."


Theme: Time
Topic: Happiness

" Happiness is created by special moment,
With the one,
I care.

Each number on the clock,
Is about story of us."




Today the lesson is about create words from image.

There's nothing impossible to us.
Just like the movie of


When lecturer said that,
nothing is impossible to be done.
As long,
Spin your brain....
Squeeze the brain juice...
Somehow there's some pop up..
(ps: i agree with Sir.)

There's a in-class practical of drawing two combination of creature that is impossible to be.
&
That is what i had draw...
look odd & ugly right?
haha....>.<

Then....
Sir give us a picture of chili
and we have to think of a poem/sentences to talk bout "Love"

" You melted my appetite , be the habit of mine."
" Although it is hot ! But it is driving me crazily."

(ps: i like i draw the chili, its cute n sexy. but not my poem. aikZ...)


Continue with.....
Picture of mortal & pestle.
About "Men/Women"

" Man are like mortal & pestle,
Physically they are strong.
Yet, they need a hand to move/motivate them;
And so...
Woman are the hand."

(ps: that's the week of my exercise o...
i will continue with few more exercise...
stay tuned...)

Juxtaposition - Advertisement

Most of the advertisement contains juxtaposition.
In video type or poster type.

Advertisement show in a juxtaposition method,
Due to attract the audience.
If the message delivered too directly,
It will not arouse lot of audience.




This Video of Advertisement is doing a comparison
between a model in the poster & the customer.

Yet, it shows that....
The powerful effect of the particular product.

>.<
Hope you enjoy the video i shared.
