  • Can a ‘bad’ picture ever be ‘great’? A picture can be great in different aspect, it can be either unique or organized. While the picture “Wrong” is a picture that people tend to feel more harder to understand. The reason that this picture is hard to understand is because it doesn’t follow the core rules of photography, which there is a significant difference between pictures using or not using the core rules of photography. Usually, the pictures that follow the core rules of photography tend to get a better effect and a better quality than the ones that doesn’t follow the rule. However, this doesn’t mean the picture that doesn’t follow the core rules of photography all receive low quality. Some pictures still tend to look mediocre, and usually, pictures that doesn’t follow core rules are belonging to abstract art, which requires people for deeper understanding. For example, in John Baldessari’s series, named “Wrong”, he uses selection of photograph that includes poor composition. The deeper meaning helps him to explain his perspective, that he thinks taking pictures should be something that is fulfilled with freedom, instead of these rules, and encourages people not to be limited by these rules and don’t be easily judged by someone else because of the quality of the photo. Overall, this mean a bad picture can somehow be great, but deeper understanding is definitely required.
  • How important is context in photography? The context of photography usually includes lot of things, for example, it includes what the author wants to explain, the attitude of the author towards something (example: society, life), etc. Which photography is how photographers use to explain ideas, or to show an unique/deeper understanding of ideas. In my perspective, the context of photography is extremely important. It is mainly because the context is just basically how photographer express ideas through pictures and scenes. Besides the expression of content, another reason is mainly about the purpose, most pictures that were usually taken by different people were purposeful, for example, I sometimes take picture of random scenes because I personally feel the scene is beautiful or unique. While the others would think this is a purposeful picture because it can explain plenty of ideas.
  • What feelings/states of mind of the photographer are suggested by the image? The feelings/state of mind of the photographer in one of the picture chosen by the series wrong, the photographer wants to express the feeling of not being judged by others because of the quality of the photo. The photographer had also suggested that there isn’t a specific idea that is wrong or right.

Summative assessments of ten days a mad woman

扫描全能王 2023-01-17 13.04

This book mainly talks about the woman reporter Nellie Bly‘s history. From being discriminated to the Mad house, to travel around the world and being a legend in a perspective in Americans that time.

First part:She was discriminated and she was arranged by the judge that she need to got in the madhouse.

Second part:She went to the madhouse to discover the madhouse and report it to the government.

Third part:After she reported the madhouse, she went to travel around the whole entire world.

Fourth part:She went back to NY.

 

The main theme of this book is mostly about discrimination on different kind of people. The reason why that my perspective for theme is mostly about discrimination is because from the start paragraph that she can’t find a job for herself. Secondly when she went to the madhouse to discover the truth of the madhouse, women patients were abused by the doctors and the nurses so both of the evidence represents women discrimination. Thirdly, even though it wasn’t talking about women being abused and women being discriminated. At Egypt, beggars are beaten by men and women passengers really badly when Nellie was a witness that time.

The central idea that author wants us to think about the topic was the mad house for mostly(chapter1-8) it doesn’t really talk about she traveling around the world that much in my perspective. The author of this book wants us to understand the topic of the book, maybe the topic about madhouse can inspire more readers to read this book because if the author named the book like Women traveling around the world, it might not inspire more people as if the topic is named Ten days a mad women.

Another theme for me(chapter 1-8) is about women can also do things that men do. Even though this is not the main theme but it is still a theme that is really important, in Nellies whole entire legend, from being discriminated by different newspaper company and others, to when she discovered the madhouse and when she travel around the world. Until she went back to NY, she was been a legend and the people that time changed to perspective of women.

Product design summative

The strength of out product is you could eat the whole piece of sushi really easy and it is easy to control but the con of this point is that it is hard to not ruin the sushi, it doesn’t really impact the environment since it is not made of plastic so it won’t really impact the environment.

Most of the feedback from our project is explain our project more clearly and adding more detail to our product.(example; make the drawing more clear or make the explaining more clear) but lot of them like our idea and our drawing. These comments for me is kind of helpful because it could help us to improve.

One of the example of our product that failed at last is about the extension claws for chopstick for sushi, it failed at last cause it is too difficult to do it so we didn’t chose that for our product.
