Group Presentation


We had posted our posterboard on the vending machines
and covering the Coke ad.


I had made the X cellphone poster which is representing
no more cellphone related ads around us.
and we are tired of the comcast, verizon, t-mobile commercial grafitti.

this is the one I had put the comparison word on it.
larger size for the strong words
smaller size for the softer words





We had a group presentation today.
we were so excited!!!
we actually did our grafitti last monday, and we taped what we did
we put on posterboard around the campus by covering the TVs and the subway sign
and also some vending machines.
Tho, our posters were teared off and back to the recycle bin, we are so happy we did that.
Our group did really great job and especially William had made awsome videos for us.
Everything went smooth and the game we set up was really fun!hahaha!

And one thing is, it so cool for Joe brought a grafitti video for us, and it was soooooooooo nice.
I have seen grafitti around the street, truck in Hong Kong too, but never get a chance to take a look of the grafitti in New York or other places around the world.
The grafitti artists all have their unique and special name to present themselves and their artwork.
They are taking their own risk to paint around public space, but thats the place could make every one notice them. I think one of the artist said"They called us grafitti, and we don't call ourselves grafitti, we called ourselves BOMB IT"
Thats is so cool, and the spirit of just "GO FOR IT!" suprised me alot.

After the grafitti day, I am thinking of drawing grafitti for my final commentary.
oh. dont worry, it would be on the paper.=)

Poor Lonely Cellphone
We ar alone
When you are gone
Hello??
"The Number you have dialled......."
Voicemail??
You are gone.
without Any signal,
You are gone.
without leaving me any single message.

Live orchestra concert


I went to a concert by the Seattle Symphony last night, it was really really good!!!!!thats was so amazing of listening to live orchestra and feel about the power of music.
Actually I was going with my friend, because he needs me to write a concert review paper for ..him=_="

In the one and half hour performance, they played works from George Gershwin and Beethoven, I think the most impressive one would be Symphony No. 7 in Major and Presto from Beethoven which is more well known and I do played with these songs in the Taiko Game in NDS.haha.XP
I do love classical music since my childhood because I was in the Choir in primary school and middle school, I watched the school orchestra practice, so I know a bit about orchestra.
When I paid full attention of listening the tracks, I can feel the changes and how the composer felt then they were composing the great works. I love the sound of flute and violin which usually make a perfect match of high pitch with some...sad emotion in it and it is so amazing!!

halloween


Here is some of my friends after having make up for the party!!
Are we cute!?

This year's halloween is the most unforgettable in my entire life.



My friends had held a party of about 400 people in a hotel suite in Bellevue which is really really nice. We have got most of the Aisan student from Bellevue Community College, Seattle Central Community College, UW, Green River Community College, and most of us had make up and had really nice costumes. We have Jokers, Uncel Mcdonald, Pirates, Cops, Army, etc....
Me and my friends had spent hours to get ready and made up, we had so much fun by doing the Joker's made up.haha.

Film watched in class

I think the function of the letters in News From Home, is to express the feeling of how a mother miss her daughter in a metro city with a lot of cars, trains, and go through all the road, stop signs in her everyday life, but missing the her daughter in the video, like having a very dull and colorless life.
Both of the films don't use so much details of telling the audience what they are shooting and how they want to express, it all depends on the audience imgination and giving so much spacing for the audience to explore their feeling towards the film. Just like from Leslie's film, we don't know what the women was talking about at first place, we just know she is so noisy and keep talking from the beginning till the end, but the man didn't really give any responses. When we watch it again with the subtitle, we seems understand what she is talking about, although it don't make sense at all, but with language and interpretation of word, we understand more instead of just having the first impression towards the noisy women, it brought up more creativity.
The two films showed what would be happen in our daily life, like driving a car, waiting for the bus, for the subway. We never have a view of viewing "ourself" driving a car, or we waiting for the subway. We are using a third person's perception to view our daily life. When we are out of ourself, we would usually have a more clearer view of what we are doing and what is going on around us.
The News from Home, which is shooting all over the city with people walking around, cars, bus, subway passing by, with the interval of a voice of a mother reading the letters she wrote to her daughter. The thing is not about the film, I think is more about the letters, which makes me thinkg of me mom in my own country, is she having the same feeling as the mother from the film does?

Both of the film giving out a very clear message of not seeing things on their cover or the skin of something, we need to really think deep about it, when we explore or spend sometime to think about it, we would learn more from what think we know. =)
