Week 9: Art Show!

My First Art Show

    It is so cool to hold an art show! This is my very first time of participating in an art show, and I felt very proud of myself. They all look so good!! Honestly, when I stepped into the empty room, I didn't even know what was going on and how it would be looked like. However, when we put our pictures into the frames, and hanged them onto the wall, they were suddenly different. Especially when the lights were on, and I was like "woooow". I am really an artist!! I will always remember this feeling whenever I will have art shows in the future. I really appreciated that!

    Also, I enjoyed the entire process of taking pictures, editing them, making photo book, and printing my favorite pictures, although it took a very long time. I met many problems, but my friends helped me a lot. They gave me so much support. This art show gathers everyone's fantastic ideas. I read through all of my classmates' photobooks very carefully, and I deeply appreciate everyone's effort. I will walk in to the art show many times. It is so nice!

Week 3: the Eye of of the Beholder

1-minute video: the Eye of the Beholder  https://youtu.be/Ku7-N_mdD6I "Everything was dominated by the eye of the beholder" (McLuhan, 57).       Everything starts with this quote. I went to the involvement fair a week ago, and I saw so many organizations on that day. I really appreciated the events. It was fun, and the ice cream was good.      I was intrigued by this quote, so I kept it in mind. When I was standing in the corner, looking at the people, I started to think about if I perceive the  involvement fair in a "beholder"'s view, I might have some different thoughts about this event. I remember there was music playing outside, but the louder musics are, the less people listen. We were all trying to convince others. We spoke louder and louder. But how much did listeners get? Did they really hear what you said? Did they really get what you said?      Then  I was a little bit tired of applying any music to this video. I muted the video, and I put the sound of

Week 1: Come to my world

A new generation is coming  (One of the albums that I listened the most, called  "Go to 2000"  (1999), by a Chinese singer Pushu )      I was born in 2001, which was a year encountered the big transition from cassette generation to disk generation. I have been through those great years from radios to Spotify, from telephones to smart phones and from something unmovable to everything portable. Those past stuffs always remind me of how I was growing up with them, and how my life is changing right now. I'm inevitably thinking about if I'm actively learning about new media or I'm forced to adapt to them. What is my position in this generation? I don't know, but anyways, I am always looking forward to the coming of a new generation. "As we begin, so shall we go" (McLuhan,46).      I cherish all the new ideas.     I cherish all the emotions.      New ideas bring drastic revolutions.      Emotions keep every tiny piece of mercy.      They are as precious as

Week 8: Research Report

Tao Te Ching                                                                   Here is the link of my  powerpoint .       The creator that I chose was Laozi. When I was doing google search, the first idea that came to my mind was "Tao Te Ching". I hadn't read this book before, so I spent two weeks reading both Chinese traditional and English versions. There are 82 chapters. Each chapter is quite short though. I took a lot of effort on understanding the traditional expressions in Chinese, and the "Tao" is abstract for me too.     In my understanding, Laozi explains how everything works in its own way naturally, and how we can just let things happen without intentionally  intervening them. It is called "wuwei" in Chinese (which means doing nothing). SO here is my thesis: things will develop in the opposite direction when they become extreme. I wrote this because people usually find that things will eventually go in an opposite way from what they expecte
