Reading Quiz

Answer the following questions as succinctly as possible in your own words

1. Using the student exhibition as an example, describe an aspect of your work or something you have worked on, where you have found a symbiotic relationship that is both complexity and simplicity

-  All the pictures that I printed looked like simple pictures but it passed a lot of process like hand drawing, scanning, photoshop, printing, and cutting. That's a complexity for me. Moreover, my pop up book is a combination of complexity and simplicity. It looks just like a common and simple book but inside the book is a complexity by pop up and a layer of picture.


2. Provide a conceptual example of a situation that has arisen during this project where you have had a return on failure?

- When I was doing the first page for pop up book, many times that pop up return to failure. It seemed like it was work but then I found a lot of problem with paper, printing and I lost that page and I had to make it again. But that failure told me what are the mistakes and it made me could avoid that problem in the next page. I learned a lot from mistake and failure and next page I took quite short time to make it. 

3. Homework: Provide a short explanation and example of how FAILURE can be turned around using the law LEARN. Describe how this relates to the TIME law.

- In the law LEARN I use BRAIN in my exhibition work. I  start everything by basis like pop up design, story and pictures. I faced with a lot of  problems and failures in making pop up but I can learn from it and avoided it to happen again. Avoiding the desperation by finding an inspiration from other works when i get stuck. All the failure that I have faced helped me save a lot of time the when I do the next page for my pop up.
