Summary of ART and DESIGN

The article Art and Design: What is the big difference, considers about the manner of the definition between the distinction on both of them, such as the different purpose, different manner of make, different criteria for judgment the successfulness, different audience and different material. To begin with the purpose of art and design, art is un-usefulness in term of functions whereas design is certainly on usability and utilitarian to people. On the manner of making, there is start from nothing which is the beginning and the end of art piece comes together. On the other hand design starts from lots of components in an environment then arrange them as the ingredients. Differently criteria for judgments, people can judge the art piece by beauty whereas the achievement of successfulness on design by working itself or solving desirable to people. In addition, art has the strongly audience which is just satisfy on them. Design’s audience need information and new things and different things. The last different is material, artist can substitute their materials freely because there own itself in contrast designer have to substitute material during the design process.

Blog one

Time fly by as usual, one month passed so quickly and I have already finished block one. Through blog one was filled with knowledge in an academic study that was consist of an academic writing, an academic vocabularies, presentation and an academic reading. There is an essential knowledge for further education in Master degree here.

To begin with the manner of the method in academic writing style which focused on an essay. There was difference from my last experience in English language school. Study hard on the essay should be necessary at me and improve grammar as well. Also the presentation, there was three presentations which were stand front of our classmate. The body language was important equipment, which had to improve. Discussions were set on our class as our routinely in class. Classmate usually shared an idea that means speaking is so important skill on discuss situation which is so necessary skill in Master degree.

So many mistakes at me from started until finished the course, I think I have to study more hard and hard. A lot of mistakes have still shown on my essay or speaking until today. Grammar is my biggest weak point for me. I will make more attempts to improve on the English skills and more self study as Steffie said. I know that i could not improve my English skill in a month but I will try to do heavier work on it. Hopefully I can solve my mistake in English skill and pass blog two soon.

China design now

According from the listening about China Design now. There was a first Chinese design exhibition in the UK museum, which is considered about creativity of modern china. In addition China had been changed by Olympia in 2008 such as building and fashion. That had shown in this exhibition, which was talking about the journey of China culture through the China coach line which start from the far south; Shenzhen which had a develop graphic project. Next move to Shanghai to learn about fashion and lifestyle. At last terminated at Beijing where had monumental architecture for the Olympic Game.

Furthermore, there is the new magazine project which Omhing who was a main project figure. Also, he was a designer, a curator and a filmmaker on this project. The project attempted to avoid being a follower of Hong Kong public. So the magazine can help Chinese people to select music by yourself as an independence music culture.

Through the film, in the mood of love, which was published in 2000. There explained the China styled in the past. The movie shown lifestyle of Shanghai young women in the middle class and reflect Chinese culture. Jang shoung ar who was jewelry and furniture designer said that movie presented in the period of 1920-1930 which represented new mood which was a reaction against to economic in Shanghai which is consider about the art of living.

In the Olympic 2008, the control centre Olympic has an inspired by digital age which was microchip. The architecture, Jupe created simple and cleaning shape building as barcode in the concept of “full high technology but using less low technology approached” which is much breath and direct to Chinese people. On the other hand people said that the building is non-building because their spaces created for machine space not a human.

Hi! BBQ

Last Friday was a great day in London. There was our little party that is very wonderful in my place; I named the party, Freaky BBQ. The BBQ was set up in the evening, which is after class. At first I wondered how I could contain everyone into my place. After the party started no doubt anymore cause I just realized my garden it is such a big garden, unbelievable!

From my notion in the first day our friends was very nice. They are super nice person which is very friendly, very helpfully, very genius and furthermore. We helped each other for cooking and setting up the place, no one against to help others. I am very pleased that I have a chance to study with them.

In addition there was not only funny and enjoy eating and drinking. We were in the English language that was great for us because it means we were not made friends just who has same spoken. We do in the right way for study, I think. At that day, Hui said if Steffie known, she might appreciate what we done. And I think so as him. So my classmates and I are doing study outside classroom as our lovely teacher said.

First prsentation in our class

This week we had a first presentation in our class which was speaking about Between British eduction and Thai education and Thai language that confused to the foreigners the most. Good and I worked as a pair for this presentation so we had to look up the researches about what topic we want to speaks before. I could say that at first, I was not nervous so much because i have been presented several times for an age. But at my presentation moment, I become nervous while i spoke actually. Probably, Good also. In case, i was nervous about the information that I had to speak even I already prepared and make the organization before speaking.

According to the presentation, I can learn many things through this presentation. While I was speaking, I almost lost body language. Eye contact is the good thing for speaker personality which is one of body language. Be honest, I pointed my eye just only Hui where in the center of our group. I think I forgot Steve and Shina where in right side. Moreover the thinking organization is another problem of mine. Speaking and thinking at the same time might trouble at me, in this presentation might not occurred too much because it was short presentation. So if it was long presentation, I should prepare a short note and write down the organization for control myself to follow as my organization look at it from time to time while speaking. the last is time controller, the organization preparing would help to control the topic and information according by the time controller which is so important in the working presentation.

I think I still on the precess to improve myself so next time I will try to do my best again and be careful about my last problems.

Second time in London

London is not appearing different for me anymore because I had been here before. Nothing changed if I compared with my last time in London; Tube station still busy in the morning and the commuters usually read the newspapers on the tube and sunshine in summer that is the great season for Londoner. There are absolutely same story for me even all Londoners to repeat as a daily life. So I would say that, London is not the interesting place for me. May be I am going to be a part of London as others.

In case, there is one thing different; it is the pre-sessional course, which I am studying. I was thinking before the class start, what is the most interesting thing in this class? I could not find out the answer at that moment. But when class started, I got the answer in my mind. That was “ FRIENDS”. The course are completed by many designers where different countries. Obviously, Lots of Asia in our class almost 100% is Asia and I’m very pleased about welcoming feeling in our class. Perhaps, we are the same Asian people so the Asian personality usually like friendly, nice and welcoming, which is comfortable to talk to, I think.

On the other hand, the good thing might began the trouble to our English language. Because we are not the native British, no-one could certainly say right or wrong accept Steffie. So learn in class might not enough. So I have to learn more form other materials here to get better English language. And I will try to do my best.
