A Symbol That Gradually Have Another Meaning

I think this ribbon symbol now a days have so many meaning than just a symbol for AIDS.
This ribbon grows into a symbol for other campaign also.

Week 4 - Road Sign

On week 4 class exercise we were asked to make a symbol for the road sign.
I suppose it's not an ordinary road sign symbol :)
This is pretty much of what I did.

Superstition

My country's superstition is a quite same with the others, especially the asian country.

One of the superstition that i remember is that the "Black Cat".
There are two version that includes this black cat.
One - They told me if we were walking then suddenly a black cat across in front of us then we will get a bad luck during the day.
Two - If there is a corpse (that just died) and was jumped by a black cat then that corpse can suddenly awake again.




Chinese Superstition
My father just told me that why chinese always wear a red colour in each celebration is because red means good fortune.
In ancient time there was this big scary monster that always kill the villagers. Then one day all the villagers use red cloth to throw the monster away and it works. Since that day red always become the colour of chinese people on their celebration to define a good fortune and successful.





Group

For me Group is a name when two people or more working together to accomplish one thing. In a group different people working together, share their idea to get a final result that was agreed by all the people in those group.

In a group it's not always end up successful and all happy with that, sometimes there are annoying and un-working people. But, when it comes to a professional personality all the people in that 1 group have to work it out until they really accomplish what they got to do.





There are so many ways to define a group. For example; student, nationality, employers, gender, and so many other ways.

Our Tribe!!!

On the week 2 we have to characterize our tribe on how we want to be recognize by others.

First thing we have to do the mind map thing to see what is something that bring us together as a tribe.
This is our mind map, and it's kind of difficult to find a thing in common between the others member of the tribe. Suddenly we just realize that we all really quite so we took it as our characterize as a tribe.



Second thing we have to make a paragraph about our tribe.
This is our tribe paragraph
"we are four quite different people who try to find some similarity between us by doing the same thing that we like, which is designing something new with a lot of passions"

Third thing we have to take a sentence from the paragraph.
The sentence is "we are quite but we actually working"

Fourth thing we have to minimize the sentence into a word only to characterize our tribe.
We came out with "quite" and "individuals"
And as the final result we all chose the "QUITE" one for our tribe.





After all of that progress we have to make our own tribe symbols from the word that we chose. Because we chose 'quite' as our tribe characteristic the symbols pretty much like this


It all about to emphasize the "QUITE" word.


This is our final tribe symbol that we are going to use.
It's basically a hand motion that asked you to be quite.
