Two Quotes from Articles and Books

 

IN CLASS: read the two articles in description and peruse any two of the books in the classroom. Find two quotes from each source that can apply to your own creativity and could be used in your manifesto project. Post your quotes on your blog and here.


Inc.com- "Sometimes you find the best things on Twitter. Not often, but when you do, it's worth sharing." I choose this quote because if you look at it beyond the sharing Tweets part you can apply it to real life. Sometimes it is worth it to share an idea, post, etc. 

"But somewhere along the way, people lose the sense of wonder that comes with creating something. We spend a lot of time following instructions, and not much time being creative." This quote spoke to me. It spoke to me because I feel like I am uptight sometimes and forget about the creative side to things. I could benefit from this. 


99designs.com- "So creativity is a skill that is specific to an individual. For some people, it might seem to come naturally, but it is something that anyone can improve at if they give it the time and effort." This quote shows how being creative shouldn't be the same as everyone else's creativeness. You should use your own experiences and own memories to form creativity. 

"Forget left vs. right brained, it’s all about the networks." This quote highlights not only the left and right brain theory but also the idea of thinking outside of the box to try and understand how people work. This sentence shows creativity!


Creative Confidence by Tom Kelley and David Kelley- "Finding the sweet spot of feasibility, viability, and desirability." (Page 19). The quote shows how there needs to be a balance between everything. No one thing should be weighing the most on your mental "scale".

"The salience network let’s you identify when things you have buried deep in your brain are salient to the world around you (e.g. you’re going for a hike and taking in the scenery, and you notice this plant… realize it looks familiar… and that it’s poison ivy! And you just saved yourself from a terrible itchy rash.):" I only choose this quote because I find it very interesting and it stands out.


Daily Rituals Women at Work by Mason Currey- "By nature a rebel who hated restrictions of any kind, she did not think well between walls." (Page 33). I find this quote so inspiring. It teals about a women who is embowered to sort of rebel and be different. I strive to be like that. 

"An illustration from Louisa May Alcott's Little Women, depicting Jo in her "Scribbling suit"". (Page 51). I choose this because the image above it shows how Jo is so intone with her creative side that she even has a "scribbling suit". I think it's cute

"Silent Walk" Reflection

Image
From Part A I chose two photos that represent the song "Vianne Sets Up Shop" from the film "Chocolat". It is by Rachel Portman. The song is bouncy and happy. I used it to represent yellow. https://open.spotify.com/track/2vPalVURlUvEwv4xsLGbEM?si=e7dc7f294cac4af5 I choose this image because the bottom cloud in the middle looks like a person dancing sort of like a freestyle flow dance. I decided to name this one The Dancer. I choose this image because the sun makes it look like a person with their hands extended. This gives me a happy welcoming vibe. I named this one The Hugger. The next song I choose was "Where is my Mind" by Javi Lobe. I used it to represent a calm feeling. When walking to this song I found more down to earth in a sense shapes. They were more mellow. In this image I see a heart. It could also look like a person making that sort of heart shape. I named it Heart Blob. In this image I saw a person laying down with their legs and arms out inf...

Inspirational Picture/Quote

Image
               I chose this image and quote because it represents something I love. The picture is of my favorite NHL (National Hockey League) player, Sidney Crosby. He plays for the Penguins a team that plays out of Pittsburgh. Ever since I started watching hockey Sidney Crosby was my inspiration. I find this quote relatable because I am very much of a perfectionist it makes it hard for me to just relax and enjoy experiences. This quote talks about letting yourself appreciate things instead of always being uptight. I think this is definitely something I can learn from. Overall, I choose this quote because of my ability to relate to it and my liking for Sidney Crosby.
