Postcards

Project Prompt:

How do the 5 senses of touch, smell, taste, sight, and sound stimulate our memories
from the past. Through a series of exercises and experiments with different techniques,
you will design a unified series of 5 postcards. Each postcard will visually represent
a different time period in your life and a different memory of one of the 5 senses.

Project Description:

We are going to create postcards look unified. Postcards look like a series. Each postcard image should have text that identifies Age (such as Age 1-5), and should contain a word, phrase or sentence that refers to the sensory memory.

 

Final Project:

Sight

 

Taste

 

Smell

Sound

Touch

 

Reflection

How did your experiences in Studio and Seminar inform each other throughout the process of writing and making Bridge 1?

    For the Studio, I really enjoy the process to make postcard. It give me a chance to remember my young age memory. The five sense shows my great memories and reminds me different feeling between different period. During the process,  we asked to make 3 different material ways. At last I chose drawing because it can make me feel connect with my memories. 

    For the Seminar class, I wrote about  my five memories with five sense. They are smell, taste, heard, touch and sight. I use my word to describe and show my own view of the memories. 

What was your intention for the final Seminar memoir, and how do you feel you conveyed that intention?

The final Seminar memoir was sound. I called the Angel sound because it from Ferrari F12 engine. I never forget that sound. I use my words to show my exciting and the feeling at that time. 

What did you discover about your work and yourself through revision?

I edited more details to make the memory more demential and have connection with my heart. Because memories were the treasure of my life, I was happy to use letter form to collect them. 

What risks did you take in this project? What risks did you decide against taking? Why?

I worried about my drawing skill not good that can influence my ideas. But I still thought it was a good way to show my memories and a good connection between the past and now. 

From this point onward, how would you like to improve as a writer and creator over the course of the semester?

As a writer, I want to make the sentences no more grammar mistakes.

As a creator, I want to try different ways to express my ideas.
