The story of random words

Our very last class has a topic to make out a story, poems or song from random words that our lecturer showed on the projector.
So, I decided to typed out a story. Here it is....

In the story, this is the castle of Labidadu

Once upon a time, a beautiful lady bug can be seen at the window. Her beautiful velvet colored dress flutter and dazzle, contrasting the dark blue night sky. Her brother came from behind because he looked almost the same as her, I know that he's her brother. They talked for a while and suddenly, she hit him with a concrete and he bleed as he fell down. I was dumbfounded, looking at a corpse in front of me.



Petrified by the scenery, I heard a laugh, a ferocious laugh from up there, at the window, the lady bug screamed out, "I have sacrificed my brother for this sacred ceremony! God, give me the power to heal, to regenerate! I've long desired to life a long live!"

Her laugh kept ringing in my ear as the warm red blood of lord bug streaming under my feet. At the day, I heard people from the village whispered about the death of lord bug, "what a crappy morning, the kind lord bug fell down the cliff. What a horrible accident! Poor lady bug, those two are really close for sibling" but, I know the truth. I know that's not the case and that's when I decided, I need to stop her.

Night time came and I took my moist fishes with salt. I sneaked into her room and confront her. She asked "who are you?"

"I'm the son of a fisherman, I came here to put you to your eternal sleep! How can you kill a kind, selfless man like lord bug?!" I shouted as I wet my lips while pointing a swordfish to her neck.

The wind blew towards the room, making the smell of her perfume filled the room. Ironic, how I still thought that she's much more beautiful up close. 

Maybe

Well, that's all for the story. I'm not sure if it will be continued but give me your opinion. Hahaha~

This topic made me have a really fun time at school. I did some quotes with my friend, Jessica A.K.A Jesu. Linking words together is one of the way for people to produce something. Just like how I came out with a....kind of different "once upon a time" kind of story. You can also linked it by using mindmap, making it easier for you to see and think of other words that can be linked.

I hope you enjoy reading this short story. I might consider to make a story out of it for fun.

Forcing Connections

I was assigned to connect artist and x-ray. I came up with a pencil that can make any 2 dimensional drawing into 3D. How? I thought that nowadays, smartphone can detect face or even other pictures and instantly using internet to search for the connection with the pictures so, it means that it can also detect 2D object and searched for the whole picture from scanning it in the pencil. 

What's more, since smart watch came out, it seems to be much more possible to do that. Now, the problem is how to make the 3D object plastered on the paper. That's when printer came across my mind, the pencil will have printing function planted inside it and once the pencil has scanned it, it will automatically print out on the paper.

One more idea is that, if the two words are combined, it will become X-rartist, which can be a good character name, either for a villain or hero. The background of this person is he/she was an artist but, one day, he/she has a superpower to be able to see people's deepest thoughts. He/she will have to save or destroy the world by using that power. 

In the last post, we connected or compared an object with others. This time, we're using words. People got inspiration strangely from incoherent words that doesn't seem to be able to make connection at all. As an example rainbow and ice cream, it can be make into ice cream with rainbow flavour or coloured like rainbow or even can be make to look like semi-circle rainbow.

Analogical Thinking & Pareidolia

Analogical thinking consists of 3 types, first is direct analogy, comparing an object with other object.. Second is symbolic analogy, an object that represent something that can't be touched or doesn't really exist in a sense, like emotion or feeling. Third, fantasy analogy, comparing things in the most unexpected, outrageous, illogical ways.

Direct Analogy

Symbolic Analogy
The megaphone kid represent noisiness.

Fantasy Analogy

The lecturer gave us some practise with a partner. The topic is how would we feel like if we're an object and make a solution for our problems as an object. I choose to be a scissor, it is sharp, can hurt people if used in the wrong way, which can make me sad and people might stay away. The solution is that to make the scissor not sharp enough to cut people's hand, only be able to cut papers. 

It is smiling at me! O.O

Also, we learned another new word! Yaaay, level up in vocabulary. Clap clap, that new word is pareidolia! Never heard of it? Good, because I'm going to explain 100 paragraphs about it. Just kidding.

Pareidolia means that moment when your brain tricked you that makes you be able to perceive a face in an object or in a certain moment. Kind of like when people mistaken that they saw a ghost when it's actually a white cloth fluttering or something similar.

Looks like a dancing person with hands
and a leg up.

I ate bananas for breakfast and when I put it down, it suddenly looks like
a dragonfly.

These two words make me think that we shouldn't be to closed minded and open ourselves to see something entirely different. To be narrow minded is not a good thing is a way, especially for artistic people because we need more inspiration in order to produce something. However, I must keep in mind that by embracing people's ideas, I have to be able to perceive what's wrong and right for my artwork. We must be able to stop ourselves from doing something outrageously...negative.
