So I heard doraemon is a robot from future

and you're talking about doomsday huh

Well whatever, I still have to continue writing this blog even doomsday is just a few more weeks. Anyway lets come back to doraemon. Who does not know about doraemon their childhood sucks(sorry to say:/). The almighty doraemon with an unbelievable pocket of dimension that stores lots of mystery future gadgets from something like this

 or this

and this

isn't it wonderful to have a doraemon after seeing all these awesome gadgets of doraemon? Japan really have some sense in technology but did any of this invented out for real? now just look at this

<iframe width="480" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/nh2Ym7ehb8k" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

This is one of the doraemon's gadget that actually managed to get invented for real, the GEN-H4 smallest one man helicopter in the world. Although it does not really have the same concept as what take-copter does, but it does have a similar between them. As our topic is here about innovations and inventions. This is surely one of the examples that brings innovation to a certain invention. But what about others?

Forget about doraemon's gadgets that most of them is not real, real invention that exists also does not have innovation sometimes. As from the link that our lecturer shows(http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/tech/article/japans-gadget-failures-the-futures-that-never-happened/), technologies tend to have some compatibility/matching issue to allow innovation happens. For example the walking type toaster, television type gas stove, electric scissors and heck, electric can opener?seriously.

not really related but in my opinion they hold no difference between mad scientists....

Even though the creative behind all those innovation was quite interesting, but it doesn't hold much importance and value that it can provide to the community and if you want me to say it in a harsh way it would be useless. The time spent on these doesn't equal to what it can do after innovation.

Without all these crazy innovation new invention/innovation will not occur. Obviously nobody wanted to create junks at first, there must be a reason an innovation born. All these could be a trial and error that slowly process them to the object that they desire. And for your information those innovation above are all from Japan, the leading country in technology fields. We could think these as their way to sucess when they are not really good in this field. Thus, we learnt about the creativity behind all these innovation might be the key to sucess but sometimes it might not, but gives experience to improve their next innovation/invention.

But  seriously........

i beg you please?TAT

The best place to be creative is in your toilet(?)

Get it before it is too late

So today we gonna talk about places or situation that will make us become creative, or places that will gives up some great buff of creativity and innovative. You know when Newton sats under the tree and get knocked out by an apple?Thats one of the example I'm gonna talk about. Thanks to the god damn apple we are suffering from Physic class for a couple of years but meh, we are not gonna talk about that now. Lets back to our topic.

Situation/Places that make us innovative/creative

1)Bathroom/Toilet

big enough to dance gangnam style

Bathroom. Just because it is private thus you just can't imagine how hillarious people can be in the bathroom. You know, singing in the bathroom, dancing, jumping playing etc. Bathroom is almost like the playground for everyone. So its not hard to believe that 80% of one's creativity comes from the bathroom. Besides, you can relax entirely while you bath, makes your mind fresh than usual. But this sometimes might become a problem when they are too relaxed in the bathroom and felt asleep in the bathtub.......

2)Anywhere with wi-fi

the only time you hate wi-fi is when you don't have their password to access...

WI-FI! The gate to the almighty internet! How can one hates them!!?(except for the situation above) You can get nearly anything with the internet if you connected to network. At the same time you could also get inspired by those in the internet. People will normally get themselves fresh when they surfing internet no matter how many days they do not sleep. Thus making them creative! :)

3) Your own room

creative enough

Just like how people do crazy stuffs in their bathroom. In your own room you find yourself being the usual yourselves rather than having another persona mask for the outer community. When you are yourselves you are morelikely to find out your own mistakes and improvise from that. And since is your own room you will also manage to calm yourself and have a clear head while thinking thus benefits you to have some creative thinking.

Things getiing smaller, Function getting greater......

and now we have wifi, where the phone's existance is nowhere to be found.......

I still remember what my mum said when handphones are bigger than our pockets, Computers could fill up a room, STOP SURFING THE NET I WANNA HAVE A CALL...etc. I believe if you are somewhere around my age you'll heard this quite too (ack now people know my age.......). Well is not been that long from all those quote exists above but now you rarely heard these right? What happened between these years in between?

Regarding this question, our beloved lecturer had gave us this interesting website for us

http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/tech/article/the-pc-is-dead-long-live-the-tablet/

buried by tablet

-Ahem- Before bashing on how retarded is the title of the topic in that website for those pc fans, lets us focus about the rise of the tablets. From the evolution of pc to tablets it did not take a lot of years and is not attractive to the consumer before Apple's iPad exists.

I dunno why but seems like the meta of the technologies is to make things smaller.....

Apple's Ipad is a good example about the process of innovation to tablets. As most of the readers would know what is iPad and what iPad does, it will be easier to understand this topic. Now, before this iPad came to the world, Apple is having a great pressure from Windows, which own almost 90% of the computers in the world, unlike Apple's Mac, which only favorable to certain small consumers. With this pressure continues no doubt it will affect Apple and Apple won't want this getting worst. They need to come out with something that can catch the eyes of consumer away from windows. But that time it seems quite hard as Window's OS is so famous to the community and even a 6 years old kid would know about it. To be short Window's reputation on computers is deep enough and almost impossible to beat them without a whole loads of miracles.

So while Mr. Steve is sitting under a tree scratching his head hard just to figure a solution for this, to attract the world about Apple. Suddenly a nokia 3310 fall off his head. He picked it up, wondering the heck this 3310 came from. And then he was bored and decided to play with the 3310. Well you know, 3310 is very old, there's nothing much you can do there. Their games are boring, menu is dull.Other than being a indestructable killing object it just good enough to do its job as a "handphone". So he thinks, and regrets why he did not bring a walkman out to get rid of this boringness, he should have brought himself a novel or gameboy etc so that he wouldn't have to sit under this tree doing nothing.

He look back that Nokia 3310 again, and related everything he was thinking just now

and iphone is born.btw things above is fictional okay

We couldn't say that iPhone is an invention as it's main idea is basicly a handphone. A multifunctional handphone that can play interesting games, tons of fun apps, internet, ebooks etc.Without losing it's main function as a handphone. Of course, during that time there's still handphones that actually can fulfill exactly what iPhone can do for the community, and during that time when Nokia is still one of the main cooperation of handphone that majority of the world is using it. But what attracts the community to iPhone is morelikely due to its design that keeps everything simple and a great place for sharing and distributing interesting apps so that everyone can always be busy with their iPhone either gaming, internet, music facebooking and many more. The fun and creativity in iPhone is unbeatable by any other phones.

But no matter how epic is an iPhone, it will forever remain as a phone. It could not turn into a gaming gear which will attract gamers into it. It also could not attract those computer nerds to get one of these because they are nerds they only need a super computer and will have this mindset of a phone will forever remain as a phone. Thus even iphone is sucessful but greedy Apple is still not satisfied with the results.Later on they focus on the mobility of a computer that can outdone laptop and remains the advantage of iPhone to produce iPad. Which literally beats all of the tablets in the world.

is a good thing but seriously it's getting annoying Apple.....

Before I getting more and more off topic, just wanna conclude that the process of innovation and invention is always behind a people which wants to change something. As the community is getting busier the innovation of technologies are also aimed to have more mobility and functions on the go. Is the community decides the innovation. I'll end this for now but one last thing before I stop.

things getting fragile too after tons of innovation, oh god why ;/

Not Creative?

What is the best word to summarise "not creative"?

seems legit

Now in the previous post we talk about 5 words that related to creativity, now how about the other way round?

5 words that are not associated with C R E A T I V I T Y

• NERDS
• SYSTEMATIC
• BED
• DEPENDENT
• SCIENCE

NERDS!

...they'll forever exists, like cockroaches

Nerds, they will only stick on their believe in certain things. They memorize the same page again and again until they can even remembered it reversely. They will always wear the same kind of cloths, eat the same kind of food everyday, obey the same timetable everyday, and wearing glasses 24/7 everyday. Try mention anything out of their world, they'll give you a "what?is that eatable?"kind of face. But this kind of people will forever success in most of their exams.(assuming they are too nerdy and do not choose design field for study).

 haters gonna hate

SYSTEMATIC!

Well at least the logo is creative....I guess

When I say systematic, it means that certain things that follow their own rule and do not accept changes.They have their own flow of doing certain stuff and if even a drop of water comes in and "poff"~ everything is gone. You can't really relate creativity with systematic as one of the core in creativity will be changing the way of doing/thinking.

BED!

BED!!!!!-jumpstothebedandrolls~

Beds, when you see them you always insists to lie down on it. When you lie down on a bed and you will feel like rolling on it. When you tired of rolling your bed you'll get sleepy. When you get sleepy means your brain wants to rest. When your brain started to rest your eyes want it too. In the end, you slept.

Raisin's research believes that 99% of people who is working nearby their bed will fails.

bed, best and the worst creation of the world.

DEPENDENT!

why hardcore doing assignments when theres google

The meme said everything I wanted to said. There's too many people out there thinking that they suck they contribute nothing other people so pro so they decided to stop thinking and let the others do the rest. How can dependent relates to creativity when these people do not even want to think?

SCIENCE!

How many of you had actually found science useful in our normal life seriously......

Now when people talk about science you already have the image of science being boring, tones of unknown, scary formulas, i-dunno-what-the-heck- laws and laboratories. So did any of these contributes to creativity?

Creativity?

But how sir?(´ε｀；)

Hi again. How was those previous blogs (assuming anyone actually read it from scratch). I believe you already used to my troll-ahem- way of deliver my message in this blog. I apologize about my engrish as I'm not a native english speaker. Well anyway.....Lets talk about the title mentioned today 8D.

C  R  E  A  T  I  V  E

 .*. b  o  r  i  n  g .*.;

good job if you noticed if not is okay :)

In my opinion, there's 5 words that can related to C R E A T I V I T Y

•  ACTIVE
•  ART
•  UNLIMITED
•  INSPIRATION
•  PROBLEMS

 ACTIVE!

 The "active" here is more too your personality. A passive person could not beat an active people in creativity aspect. Well you can say that passive person is more to an "defensive" kind of person that needs more times to create and deal with it. I'll say this kind of person is more likely outdated/old fashion. Well....is not bad to become an outdated person since they are more steady with their theory.

But an active person will always make him/herself in trouble, and have fun with it....

Self experience, I had came across with my friend during my primary school who likes to get beaten by teacher just to find a solution to reduce pain from teacher's cane.....The worst if i recall correctly was he even get himself a water balloon during our children's day in class and throw at the teacher straight to her face......and he got beaten four times and asked to call his parents/facepalm 

 

in the end he taught everyone to tie their hands with rubber bands before get "sugar cane"from the teachers....and for some reason is been a trend in the school for quite some time.......

Ahem...I mean the kid (´∀｀*) 



ART!

one should not say "Anime is not a form of Art!" without more than hundreds of legit reasons.Case closed.
btw, I strongly recommend Persona 4(anime) and Steins Gate(anime) for any people who likes mad scienties and....GIRLS

If active is related in creativity in terms of personality, then art will be the form of expressing creativity and a method of increasing one's creativity skills. A beautiful art might not involve in creativity, but an outstanding art is always related with creativity!

When you said something is outstanding, it probably means that it is fantastic to you or rare/unique to your brains, right? In conclusion that "something" had created something new to you, which is a part of creativity which is to innovate and create(in my opinion).

one of the best example here....the inventor of this had made quite some money by just create this almost useless box that I've ever seen but still...!(i just saw my friends having one last 2 months...ah well i guess it is cute enough..../facepalm)

UNLIMITED!

aww comeon you know you always see this word almost everywhere.....especially where those that need to attract you to buy something right? right!!?

Ahem...the best way to describe this in creativity field....Look at those ads, preferably those prepaid adds, credit cards loans etc. What did they focus on the most in their layout?UNLIMITED DATA USAGE! UNLIMITED CASH CREDIT !!UNLIMITED INTEREST!....you get my idea now?Good!(I don't care i assume everyone who read this get my idea lol) Everyone loves the word unlimited, it always gives us these beautiful imaginations that things will go as their wish if everything is unlimited. Now if they can relate this to creativity it will be a bonus to them in any field. Remember the Unidentified pinky object from the 1st post in this blog? It has many different function whether its actual use or "created" used by many other people who came across that. There the main idea of unlimited. Who cares if its a mens playing toy or middle finger cover or some quest used item from the future it can be anything depends on how far your imagination could go! So yeah...

No I'm not talking about McDxxxld

INSPIRATION!

Raisin's definition of inspiration:WORST THAN JACKPOT.

When a chef is not even a chef, he only know how to do boiled egg. Then he saw the pan, he learnt how to make a fried egg. He noticed how to do scramble egg too when he always screw up the egg when frying the egg. Later he got lazy and just messed up everything in the pan, and omelette is done. His girlfriend brought him too many bread, so he invented toast and eggwich. His brother keep teasing him with beautiful dishes, in the end easter egg is found!

The crap you read above is purely fictional and please don't serious with me ( ´,_ゝ｀)

PROBLEMS!

you can always see this from the scienties long time ago, but you have to thank them for inventing all these brain problem's crap

Every human is lazy, admit it. Typewriting machine is found because they are too lazy to write. Lift is invented because they can't affort to use the stairs. Washing machine exists because people are too lazy to wash their clothes. TV? internet? computer??telephone? So they don't even have to get out from their house!!

*hikikomori=desperate people that do not want to face reality and stay in their home sweet home everyday

Not to say that the crap mention up there is not useful....hey wait, who cares is useful or not I'm talking about creativity here. People will be  creative enough to use their brain if their situation is extreme (lazy to wash, write etc) to solve their problem. Although most of our problem out here had already provided solution with the help of mighty google. But it is creative! With some simple mechanics that could turn things they could relate this and made a washing machine! Is the same for us which will think of different method of killing mosquito for god's sake.

Before this, you need to stay awake so that you can hunt that annoying mosquito down until this

beautiful creativity is beautiful, salute to the inventor

To be continued on next part which will be the opposite of this part :)

Ken Robinson 2006 Ted Talk

Me:but unfortunately I'm still paying for one

So I've came across this video showed by our dear lecturer during our creative study class and had given a task to write some video response to it. Well.....Mr. Ken Robinson do has some interesting points in his speech and I honestly learnt alot(from subtitles).So we will have a little discuss about the title for today, which is the same as the video title(if you can see). Do schools kill creativity?

School

 you'll always lazy to go but will always miss it

A school is an institution designed for the teaching of students (or "pupils") under the direction of teachers. Most countries have systems of formal education, which is commonly compulsory. In these systems, students progress through a series of schools. ---from wikipedia

Now when we talk about school, we talk about education. Parents sent their children to school almost everyday to make sure their children is "educated". And by mentioning educated it should be meant their children should be taught knowledge, skills and thinking. Now lets back to our topic, does school kills creativity? Sir Ken Robinson mentioned every kids have their own talents, but not focused and build to it. Who is the main culprit that made it happened?

 kid A: Creativity? by the way what homework do we have again? 

...Well more like the method of our education is killing it. In schools we usually are given or taught the method of solving things for example, we learnt how to get 2 by 1+1, we know how to use computers for facebooking and internet trolling and we all know to borrow textbooks from next class before our teacher start raging.

“Worst week of my life!”

~ Chuck Schuldiner on High School

What I want to say is our education does not really put attention into this creativity sections. In their point of view, they have to educate a whole bunch of kiddos which can't even memorized A B C correctly thus why should they focus on these highly risky field rather than just spoonfed them with what they should know and they must know. By doing this they would not get complains from their parents too. Asian parents especially. This is a win win situation which even I, just graduated from this so call compulsary education by the goverment thinks is legit.

The only thing that most Asian parents contributed to this creativity field will be sending their children to music class, art class, mind thinking class 24/7 a week...

Although school do kills the growth of children's creativity, but creativity is not something that can be "killed" or "vanish".It will be always there, to ultilize or not the child itself could still made it by itself by gaining interest into certain area that helps building creative thinking like art class piano class etc....To destroy the will of one child of learning creativity mostly will be the parents.ASIAN PARENTS. i shall repeat again ASIAN PARENTS!

Is....is not that they don't care about creativity, if you are one of the asian child you will know that your dearly parents will do almost everything to give you the opportunity to learn it. Monday they will sent you to have violin class, tuesday will be piano, wednesday it will be an art class, thursday and friday shall be the so called mind thinking class. Saturday?TUITION. 50% of asian parents will let their children have a break on Sunday but the rest will be fitted in dunnowhatkindofclassthaticannotthinkof -ahem-

kid A:Mom, Im sorry mom let me get away from this please mom..?QAQ

mom: NO -continues watch tv- Your maths teacher is coming soon get prepared.

In the end, unless a kid found him/herself masochist enough to feel happy during all these classes, i pretty sure that the kid will quit them all with the all sorts of excuses for example final exam coming yada yada yada and for results and their "face" sake they will happily cancel all the kids class.......And they also unconsiously thought their children that giving excuses will prevent them from problems thus all sorts of nagging kids grown up turn into a ungrown adult......
