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.
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.

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.

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.

Basic definition of vegan

Through the pie chart which shows many people are vegetarians.But they are still small group. They still have many unfair or aspect escape public notic.

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.
