Today we did some peer reviewing while looking at a partner's work, I haven't read it yet so as I am typing here I am reading it for the first time.
My strengths:You can go into depth with your explanations. This is especially true and apparent in your post by the name of : 'Day Fifty-Nine : What Inspires Tami? Don't Know.'
My weaknesses: The format and layout of the website needs improvement.
My opportunities: You have proven your capabilities in Photoshop. It would be nice to see you create a professional video based around the music you enjoy. Mainly because it helps you focus on a subject that you enjoy.
My threats: The only threat I can think of is if you break your leg and you have no access to your wix website.
The weakness really hurt for some reason. Maybe because it is so generic and specific at the same time. Anyway, after that we had a mini lecture about 'Hidden symbolism and meaning in art. Discover the moon in Rochester and Apollo 11'. We were told about some artists that had hidden meanings in their works and were given specific examples. Leonardo da Vinci in 'The Last Supper' (1495-1498), Santa Marie della Grazie, Milan, Italy. The hidden meaning is that the bread rolls apparently look like a "tune", played backwards it should sound nice.
The Sistine Chapel ceiling is divided into 9 central panels, which depict the creation of the world, the expulsion of Adam and Eve, the story of Noah and the most famous of the nine panels is the creation of Adam in order to give him life. The part where God is looks exactly like human brain.
The Ellora Caves (600-1000)in Aurangabad, Maharashtra, India has different types of faiths represented. The Spring Temple Buddha (2008) in Lushan county, Henan, China is a temple.
We were also told about how medieval men and women understood vision. They believed that if you looked at something it looked at you too, even if it was inanimate. They believed that it would go into your eye and into your soul. We heard a bit about the evil eye and the talismans used to repel it.
In times past, when people were forbidden to express their opinions, a painting or sculpture was a suitable medium in which an artist could hide a message. The movement in Vincent van Gogh's 1889 painting "The Starry Night" hinted at an extremely complicated mathematical concept called turbulent flow decades before scientists discovered it.
After the lecture it was time to make inspiration boards. I also finished my final project ideas mind map, without pictures.
Here is my inspiration board focusing on the colours I would like to use; yellow, black and/or blue.
I did some research on the effects of colour on mood but I think the information is too much to make a blogpost out of so I will just leave hyperlinks to the two sources I looked at intensively.
