The other practice I have made is that I use the mirror paper and cut them, it is represent the violence. The mirror paper means through the mirror, you can see yourself. Just like a meat eating people said whay you don't eat meat.This is interesting for me ,this make me take different position to see the same thing.

The view holder of few vegan
If a vegan told you that you should to be vegan, no matter he or she "warm hearted" told you that the reseaons to be vegetarian. I could image that most people will scary the way that people force you do this or to be this. In a way, the way the taken almost like language or mind violence. They try to change other people's orignal point of view. Almost like you pick up a flower and draw some color or point on that flower. So I have made some practice to improve this opinoin.
22 days experience
Basic on the 66 days theory, I want to make a text which is more about the vegetarian experience.
I want to divided the 66days to be 3 parts, because I just to make it to be a small practice. It is called vegetarian
experience. My volunteer who was a meat eating girl. The fist stage(22 days) she will experience like a semi-vegetarian, she could eat white meat, like fish and chicken. Move to the second stage (22 days) she will become
a lactovegetarian that she could not eat any meat even fish, but she could eat egg and drink milk. The third stage(22 days)she will become a vegan that meanings she could not eat any products made by animal(like egg and milk).At the same time, she should record her felling and her social things. This could be show a
vegetarian's living condition. And this is a exciting experience, just like you play another role in your life.
See what happen. This is attract me. And I also got little piece of the diary.
66 Days form a habit
"What we found was that it takes 66 days on average for people in our study to acquire a habit,"
says Professor Jane Wardle, of University College London, who carried out the study with Dr Phillippa Lally.
The research, the first to investigate how long it takes to form a habit, has significant implications for people
who want to adopt a heThat was the average time it took for volunteers in a study to begin doing automatically
something they had adopted as a daily duty, such as eating fruit with their lunch or going for a run before dinner.
66 days was the average time it took for volunteers in a study to begin doing automatically something they had
adopted as a daily duty, such as eating fruit with their lunch or going for a run before dinner.
This report shows that if you stick on behaviour for a long time(66 days), this might change your action. I want to use this survey to be basic theory.
Positive psychology
1.Positive psychology (psychology 1504 Harvard) TalBen Shahar
Change is difficult. The reason is that we do not recognise our self. Most Psychology are concentrate on negative
aspect of human psychology, but Professor TalBen talk about how to accept the part of negative and recognise
yourself.
Changing position
We have experience of changing our position that making the work for our partner.
This time I work for Hanna koo.
This time I work for Hanna koo.
She's work is about the "synetheis in typo" which concentrate on the sesen of typo. People could feeling the sense of type.Her one piece of case study is attract me. A series of spoon design. The designer make the material and protuberance around the edge spoon. when I saw this picture I could image the feeling about my tougue tip touch these protuberance.
The picture shows her work. She made different type of an song. She draw the pictures by herself.but the same lyrics present different features. And then she made these picture togther. The color and the result
is very special. The style is very closed to the pop art. And the typo could link togther almost like lyrics video.
I think I could feel the beat.
After the class, we should work it like this is our own project.I thought about that I think type is not just the flaniform, it could be more possible.Like my video shows.

Misunderstanding of vegetarian
Am I getting enough protein?
To be a vegetarian could loose weight?
It is a fashion as a vegetarian?
these are the FAQ about vegetarian.
The is no question that a sensible vegetarian diet is at least is at least as healthy as a sensible maintain that it is
better. Balance diet is the best choice. So, if you want to be eat without meat, that's ok. U will not losse nutrition.
A vegetarian diet is not inherently a weight-loss diet but rather a lifestyle choice. It is true, however, that adults and children who follow a vegetarian diet are generally leaner than nonvegetarians. This may be because a vegetarian diet typically includes less saturated fat and emphasizes more fruits, vegetables, whole grains and plant-based proteins — foods that are more filling and less calorie dense.
Vegetarian absolutely not fashion, it is life style.
Case study Life of Pi
1.'The life of Pi'(2012)
A young man who survives a disaster at sea is hurtled into an epic journey of adventure and discovery. While cast away, he forms an unexpected connection with another survivor: a fearsome Bengal tiger.
Director: Ang lee.
Writers:David magee(screenplay), Yann Martel(novel)
When Pi with his tiger arrived an island, the tiger eat the meerkat. But the other meerkats do nothing at all,
They saw their companion be eaten by tiger. The director want to discuss the vegetarian who not prevent
people who eat meat. It is similar with the tiger eat the meerkat. I think this is a complicated question.
Sometimes the vegetarian is based on the level of food, If people in the wild word for live, people more
closed to the animal. On the contrary, living in the human society, people more become to the human
who should control their side of brutish.
Religion and vegetarian
There are many reasons to be vegetarian, but many people do not eat meat always because of the religion. Jainism are all strict vegetarian.Hindus do not eat, because of that divinity is present in all forms of life---human or otherwise. In an endeavor to relate to the world outside in meaningful and harmonious
way, Hindus approach all life in the same way, which love with violence. No exception is made for animals.
Buddhism encourages vegetarianism as beneficial for developing compassion.
Taosim is courage people do not eat meat.
Through this religion is the biggset affect of vegetarian, it promot the development of vegetarian.
My own expericens as a semi-vegetarian
Vegetarian is a life style, it is about the what you choose and you got happy from that. Even for chinses people, there are many evidences in history. Many people do not eat meat because they believed in Buddhism.
In 522,Emperor Liangwu belived in Buddhism and suggest monks and Buddhism nuns to be vegetarians.This is the earlist record about the vegetarian in China.
For me, I have met many things when I said I was semi-vegetarian.
The questions like these: why you choose to be a vegetarian ? How you could bear that life without meat ?
Even someone who suggest that you taste the meat ? It is drive me crazy. I felt uncomfortable when these things
happened many times. The worst thing is that when I have dinner in Chinese hot pot restaurant with my friend.
Hot pot is very popular type of Chinese food. People always sitting beside a big table and use a big pot which be
divided into two part(spicy and regularly)They are all meat eating people except me, and they should waiting for me to eat until I was full. This is awkward
and make me fell I was a trouble.
Green design ,bye bye.
Today I got the feedback of my studio progress review which is shows that I came to the blind alley. Because I can't do nothing practice of my topic. Actually The green design is a good concept of design even graphic design. I also have practice to do like green package, or redesign the old stuff, but it seems not my interesting area. So I gave up the topic. At this time, Jaap gave me inspiretion :Looking myself, what is the ture direction is more than anything else. So I consider the plants.I always love plants, the best experience is watching your plant grow up. I looking back to the start point, thinking the things that I was interested in. Finnally I choose the Vgegetarian.
I was not the strcit vegetarian.I just not eat the red meat. It seems not persuasion, semi-vegetarian?
Yes, the definition is really exist. There are different types of vegetarian.I was here. And I have many things to share when you are semi-vegetarian.

Design for the future
So Thomas Friedman’s long New York Times Magazine essay today hits on his newest metaphor for changing the world: “Green is the new red, white and blue.”
Norman Foster quoted Thomas Friedman‘s speaking. Norman Foster who was the environmental consider architect, his buliding always consider the complycated elements.

The Reichstag opened in 1894 but was severely damaged by a fire in 1933. It was partially restored in the 60s, but the final work by British architects Fosters & Partners was done in 1999, causing it to flourish as the modern Bundestag. Featuring a magnificent-glazed cupola on its terrace roof, the building is now a radical and perfect example of energy efficiency and power storage.
The gorgeous glass cupola brings plenty of natural light and ventilation down to the parliament floors and into its own entrance, reflected by its mirrored-core. More natural light do not use electricty.
No paper
When I though this conception, digital products come into my eyes. We are used to watching the information from the internet, samrt phone, the lap top, and the digital readers. These must be the best practice of NO PAPER practice. To make a ebook, souds like it is easy and many people have done that before. Digtal could be everything.
This picture shows the United Visual Artists (UVA) has been commissioned by Virgin Media to create an immersive light installation on London’s South Bank to mark the tenth anniversary of broadband in the UK. ‘Speed of Light’ is a series of installations that explore the themes of communication and modernity. Stripped back to its materials, fibre optic is a thin strand of glass, with nothing more than a flickering beam of light. UVA have used this beam as the starting point for their work. The installations dramatize the experience of using fibre-optic communication, re-imagining it as an immersive environment.
They combine the soud input and the light. Making them together, light and sound. But it couldn't help my concept no paper. It just show the light.How can I make it?

No ink practice
3R-reduce,reuse and recycle. This basic theory of green design. Reduce, the best reduce is no use.So I think about no ink. If we don't use ink, that must be green more. But I thnk that is impossible. How could we do not use ink and we can see the information. I thought about the tiny hole by needle. Firstly people see the paper or the light decorated by the little needle hole, we always think that is just decoration. But sometime it it not. It is also green way to communication.
Other organization effort
Green Map System(GMS), a nonprofit organization that promotes sustainable community
development, based in New York City, advocates for inclusive participation in sustainable
community development around the world, using mapmaking as our medium. It is aim to expand
the demand for healthier,greener choices. GMS offer a good reference for our life, especially
for designer. When we choose the material (paper,plastic,ink,) ,GMS help us to choose the green
one. As a designer said "Sustainability isn't hard; it's just not simple".
Fake green?
There are many "eco" or "green" objectives around us. Is them true green? Example: A booklet
printed on brilliant white glossy stock that uses toxic materials to produce the paper but uses vegetable
inks to appear "eco". This is irony. But that is really exist in our life. Sometimes the "eco" just utilize
the environmental sense of public. So, how we make the objects authentic green is very necessary. Put
the practic.
Why be socially and environmentally responsible?
People become more environmentally and conscious for many reasons, and concern for the
environment is not at the top of everyone's list. Jaimie Cloud, founder of the cloud Institute for v
Sustainability Education, is an expert on what motivates people to become more socially and
environmentally responsible. She maintains that most people want to do the right thing and reframes
common questions. And then, to the designer who should do more to the society. She believed that we
live in a world linked together by mutually beneficial systems and that every action should solve more
than one problem.
The waste of digital
When I finsihed my presentation, my tutor suggested that I should see this documentary"Mnufactured landscape".It is direted by Canadian fine art photographer Edward Burtynsky shoots the recycling dumps, superfactories, vast quarries and shipyards, capturing visual beauty in the ecological devastation. And making us thinking about the problem: After all we demand the lowest prices in everything we buy and that probably means it was made in China. This movie gave me another pointview thinking about the digital products. The small product looks like nothing harmful to the environment, when we saw the report about the wast of electrical , I was been shocked.

Who read ebooks?
We can see that many people read ebooks, there is a inforgraphic about the topic "who reads ebook".Random House’s Research and Analytics team pulled together details on the US ebook consumer from research reports from Pew, Bowker, and Forrester.
I was superised by the data when I saw this inforgrahic. I never thought about that people read ebook will disscuss books about their family and friends. Through the data we know that people who read eboob more about the suspense, mystery and romantic. This context are more about dailylife. People do not like talk about the profesional problem. It is easy to understanding.

Digital to the end
At this stage I want to more focus on the print production because this is the intensive area of graphic
designers. In addition, digital product is more significantly effect our life, it will change the situation of
the graphic design area. More and more digital application that we could download. Like calender, the
important goods we need before, but now we all have the moble phone that built into calender. And
many people use the digital reader like Kindle, ipad. So there is a discuss whether the printing books
will be disappear, maybe will or maybe not. This question just about the time and technology. But I
think that digital book is more light and efficiency. It is save the energy to making paper and printing,
in addition, the transportation. The digital book is not perfect enough, but along with the developing of
the technology, it will much more convenient and more useful.
Kindle reader, the digital reader is not fresh enough,but the factory try their best to make it more closed to the real book and add more specific features to it. Currently, it was not good engouh, at the future, it will be good.
