Week 8 - Origination

15/09/2010 – Week 8 – Origination

Are Google docs a useful tool?
I don’t think it’s useful because not everyone uses it, including me. It doesn’t print sometimes and I can’t send anything because I can’t find my contacts as I have a hotmail account not a Gmail account.

Logistics Report
Finally we have put together a sponsor letter to take out to business, still waiting on the logo to finish off the letter.

1. When Maeda uses the “Feel, and feel for” principle, he is drawing on people’s connection to a very personal experience: feelings. List 3 ways that would make use of this principle to visitors of your exhibition.
Having the exhibition relate to the territory for example the logo and maybe even the artwork. Etiquette: need to be polite to the visitors, dress appropriate, keep language clean and clear. , Nude electronics: showing art on the Macs. Aichaku: getting attached to your work, really hitting someone emotionally with your art.
2. What is animism? Why do you think the “Tamagocchi” craze of the ‘90s became such a craze? How can you apply this to your exhibition?
A belief that nature or electronics has soul, having love to something electronic, giving soul to something unreal.
3. Name 2 products that you have purchased that gave you that feeling of “Aichaku”. What feelings did those products evoke? Was it the feeling that sold the product to you?
Clothes,
Quad,
Phone,
Jewelry,
My new car when I get it. ☺
4. How do the references to emotion relate to the simplicity/complexity relationship discussed in Law 5 - Differences?
If something is simple you think its low quality or fragile. Complex items generate feelings of wow.

  1. ...but no URLs or YouTube links with commentary - you have stuff off the internet here - you need to reference it properly.
