Response to Nipple Jesus

Nick Hornby:

I think the title of the article is very interesting, Abstract words as a title is a good way of attracting readers. Nick introduced his first job before being a security guard at the art gallery. He used this story to told readers a painting named "Nipple Jesus". he author was very sad of this painting has been destroyed.

But the artist who created this painting was happy about that.The artist thought The value of a artwork not only for people to watch, but also need people know the meaning of artwork.I real like the idea of artist, if your artwork can be controversial that is a successful work.Art is a complex and we should find the deepest meaning of the art.

Response to Walker and Barrett articles

Walker：

The Walker article uses a lot of examples to explain their thesis. Artwork and artists to make his article more persuasive. This really helps audience understand the support from the artists is better than explain the thesis without the example. However, the mean idea of this article is not similar to the thesis that makes me confuse what is the Walker want to say?  Other things I do not like is Walke’s work is not detailed enough.

Barrett：

The article talk about the denotation and connotation of art in the visual work that is very useful. Denotation and connotation are very important in human growth. In different age of people have different ability.The Barrett use rheexamples like Teddy Bear to interpret his idea. The authors said that if the authors hope that the audience can fully understand the meaning of a work of art, communication is the important way between the author and audience

Response to the Kidd, Hickey, and Weschler articles

Kidd is a great graphic designer. His great talents in this area are indisputable. In the excerpt from The Cheese Monkeys by Kidd gives audiences the most basic explanation of the design. This article is mainly talking about “forms” of the design that include the concepts of big and small, left to right, top to bottom, foreground and background, and so on. These are very similar to our daily life. However, I am confused of the part of the article like the introduction of this article; I think this part has a little abstract that too hard to understand.

Hickey, The Heresy of Zone Defense excerpt

This is a good article, Hickey described the different roles of the rules in sports competitions and artistic. I like his stance about the idea that in art, I always think that art can not be bound by the rules. His main argument is about the rules in people’s life. Citizens of a free individual, living in a free society and people must have independent ideas. Although the rules have limitations that can makes things easily. Author refers to basketball as an example to explants the rule has different role in different situation. Although the author's argument is unique, Hickey try to make basketball is in fact liberated by its rules. But I think his argument a little stronger.

Weschler, Uncanny Valley excerpt

The Weschsler in this excerpt discusses the progression and technology of digital animation and introduces the complexity of the animation. The authors believe that the face of the character animation is very important and also difficult to create. The authors argue, the soul is difficult to be captured no matter how exquisite the figure. However, Weschler always use reverse thinking to explants his viewpoint that is difficult to understand.

Project 2

I always pay much attention to my surroundings on the way of school and think too much about that. I am get up at 8:30am every Monday and Wednesday morning. The first things I do after the get up is check the time of no.2 cota line that is only the bus I can take to go to school. I like choose very fit time that means if I did not catch that bus, I will be late. In general, 5 minutes walk from my house to the station. Unfortunately, I just have few times can finish up and go to bus station before 5 minute. Other times I must run to there that led to I often miss the bus and get class late.  



Now, let me introduce my picture. The background of the picture is the Google map direction from my home to class. The first photo is named “Mysterious door” that is not real exit. At the beginning of I moved into this apartment, I did not know this door, when I walk on this street, some people who suddenly appear in front of me that really scare me. I solved this confusion until one day my roommate told me that the door. This is real funny things I think. When I pass this door, I will see the Patrick J’s that like a Turning point. In this place I can see the bus stop that determines the next part of the road to bus stop I should walk or run. Every day I get off at the 18th Street and then I need take CLS or CC to go to the destination, Ohio stadium. I always try to find other classmates when I walking on the way to the classroom, even though I was late I am not alone

10. My name on Campus

I think this project is very interesting; I love to shoot photos of life. Through this project, I can share my photos to other peoples that really nice. If you can carefully observe the twenty photos, you will see the common ground of these pictures that about colors. Most of these photos have a strong color impact. Although the first group of photos was randomly selected, they still have the meanings. Like the picture of Macaroon that is the gift from my roommate. On a last spring break she went to New York and brings the best macaroons in New York for me. Different color is a different flavor and very delicious. The ninth photos are some of colored pencil shavings. The reason of using this photo is art everywhere. The twenty are come from daily life and first ten pictures are more random.

Now, let us talk about the second group photos. I spent a lot of time in these photos. I thought hard about how to make me be more creative on these photos. I am most satisfied with the photos is the first one and second one. The books are an important factor for picture asymmetry. I think this photo is very creative and I like it so much. The little kid on 4th photo is my nephew; he was crying and looking for his mother. This photo capture is very timely, because he always moves and this photo not blurry. About the unstable picture is good idea. I got it from 3rd flood that is very good point of view. The person are little small in this photo, but each action is very clear. These elements are the well expression of the unstable. I have a headache when I saw I need to provide the photos of bird, because I have a phobia of bird and I want to make the point of view of a bird from other bird that like secretly watching its lover. I can only ask my friend to help. Photography is his interest and he is very good at photography. Very grateful to him! The last photo about my name on campus that is a little bit difficult. This idea come out great, I found the building which have some pronunciation of my last name “tang”. I am amazing it because I am Chinese and the Chinese names are totally different from Americans name. Overall I had a really fun time with these photos and look forward to the projects ahead.

Randomly selected 10 pictures
