Brief:

This is a fan-creation artwork from a doujin artist, featuring characters from the commercial game Arknights.

The story explores the connection between an orphaned priest and the malevolent spirit haunting his church. To relieve the church's burden, the young priest is sent to live alone in the cursed chapel. For survival, he must confront the evil spirit using only his faith and compassionate heart.

This is ultimately a story about love and self-discovery.

Personal Reflection:

As a former Arknights player, I dislike how commercial games treat their characters like commodities—this is where I share common ground with this fan artist. Unlike typical fanworks, her creations don’t just express love for the characters; I also see her resistance, a form of pushback against the game’s shortcomings.

Brief:

This is a magazine interview with artist Santong. I want to discuss her graduation work A Night Ride to the DAY mentioned in the interview. The story follows a girl named Dizzy who, while sorting through her late father’s belongings, unexpectedly saves a middle-aged man attempting to burn himself alive. They share similar family issues—both have strained relationships with their fathers. To repay Dizzy, the man joins her on a journey to fulfill the unfinished wishes of the deceased, hoping to free her father’s lingering spirit.

Personal Reflection:

I come from a difficult family background myself, so I deeply relate to both the girl's emotions and the middle-aged man's sorrow. As someone whose family members are still physically healthy, I realize that working on these family relationships will be one of the most important challenges I need to face in my life ahead.

Brief:

This is an interview with artist Ram2, featuring an introduction to their artwork. The pieces use young girl imagery and skeletal motifs as symbols, combining functionality with the lines of the human body. Using 3D printing technology, the artist has created a series of shelves and accessories that evoke feelings of pain and melancholy.

Personal Connection:

Since childhood, I’ve been exposed to subculture, where female melancholy, pain, and blood have always been significant themes—especially in anime and alternative art. At first, I found it beautiful, but now, when I encounter such works, I feel a sense of discomfort as a woman. Seeing girls’ bodies twisted, bent, with exposed bones and lingerie, turned into shelves—I can’t help but think: Is this how women are seen in their eyes? Why only women? I believe this shift in perception comes with my growth.

"蝉已经开始鸣叫了。晒田还在持续，稻子被太阳晒得绿油油的。树木舒展枝丫，仿佛要捕捉澄澈的天空。 除我之外的所有事物都迎来了清晨，除我之外的每个人都活着。 "

结尾的转折像是突然把明媚的午后埋进一座阴郁的坟墓，美好与死亡的对冲刺眼又梦幻。日本小说家乙一在1996年的成名作《夏天、烟火和我的尸体》中的这段文字，曾像藤蔓般长久地缠绕着他的读者。

夏天一轮轮地上演和谢幕，直到最近，网友们在香港艺术家Ram2的作品里又找回了这种实感。

这是一座禁锢着少女的"纪念碑"，她的头颅、心脏、大脑和骨骼像是被埋在公园的土壤中，作为养分供应着一旁盛开的乐高花朵。当禁忌致郁的元素和梦幻纯真的形象同框，一种奇异的吸引力瞬间填满眼球。

安置在桌面边缘，像是通关后触发故事剧情的纪念碑，工位也成了游戏的背景板。

构思草稿中也有很多可爱手迹："Insert picture of the person you miss（把思念之人的照片放进来）"

让每一位亚b烟民都能享受到梦幻的精致感。

但Ram2也并没有将它让成为"美丽废物"。很难想象最终次元壁碎裂的声音，是来自于梦幻造型下的高得离谱的实用性：它可以是钥匙挂、记忆卡储存盒、小型相框、充电线头收纳......甚至是只允许你抽一根烟的烟灰缸（小容量造就健康）。

发布几天就斩获2.5w赞，理智尚存的网友忍不住提问："灭烟不会把塑料烧掉吗？"

诡异的点赞数

Ram2回复："确实烧了。"

某种程度上，坦率且微微摆烂的语气也很贴合作品本身。或许被烟烫化的塑料，也可以解读为破坏艺术的一环。

冲浪时的Ram2，就像是你列表里某个很爱《星际牛仔》《天元突破》、收藏了大把抽象meme的二次元网友，但皮下的他却是游荡在漫画和3D打印雕塑领域的高产大神。

"试图将动漫视觉效果脱离原始的故事情节，以达到空洞的状态，呈现永恒与超越的感知。"翻译一下就是--在他的主页，你可以看到一部"邪典致郁番"创作的过程。

从脑洞炸裂的手稿，到超强的落地执行力，Ram2双手就像在不断地打印3D梦境。

*本文所有图片素材源自Instagram@ram2isflat，如无授权，不得私自转载
他还创作过一款"穿心烟托"，也以同样反差割裂的视觉观感暴击过网友们的审美。

飞扬的发梢和裙摆配合双臂摊开掌心向上的跪姿，像是从某部漫画的名场面里截取了一帧"拥抱死亡"的仪式。它定格了摧毁与疼痛，瞬间与永恒。

当使用者将香烟插入这枚烟托时，也就"刺穿"了少女的心脏，完成了最后极具表现力的一幕镜头。正如Ram2的个人网站所述："互动属性是被广泛考虑的因素，一些作品只能通过旁观者的双手完成。"

当然，不爱矫情的人也可以只把它视为露骨的"健康警告"。戒不掉烟？那就只能一箭穿肺了。

亚文化的地界从不缺少艺术大脑。厌倦了正确与正常，所以渴望找到一种不太一样的出口，也许不那么和谐但也足够唤醒麻木的感官，于是反叛的魅力就降临了。

想被治愈（致郁）的人，来逛一逛Ram2的打印世界吧。

1. How did it feel presenting?

I didn’t prepare notes for this presentation, so I felt very nervous at first. But once I started speaking, I gradually found my flow, and I could feel myself getting better and more confident.

2. What worked (or didn’t)?

I think this is a great way to practice thinking on my feet, and it really worked!

But my thoughts weren't organized clearly enough, and my PPT didn't help remind me of my key points.

3. What did you learn (from others)?

My slides could be more visually polished, and in these presentation opportunities, I should try to share more content.

4. What feedback did you most enjoy?

My favorite moment was when Chenying asked me a question during Q&A. She mentioned some buildings that reminded me of my special memories from that place, which brought joy to the whole class.

5. What was the most helpful feedback?

Actually, I found all the feedback helpful. This kind of interaction really encourages me to express myself more in English.

Week 3 Weekend Assignment: Reflection on Last Week's Writing

Week 3 Weekend Assignment: Reflection on Last Week's Writing

# data[].attributes.body
We practiced writing-related exercises, and I noticed that I always have a strong desire to express myself. I find it easy to describe things or objects—my mind is always full of ideas when I write. However, the challenge is that despite having many thoughts to share, I often procrastinate.

My weak English foundation has become the biggest obstacle in my writing. The vocabulary I currently know is far from enough to complete a proper piece of writing.

The approaching deadline is what finally pushes me to start writing. My desire for good grades outweighs my laziness—which might be a good thing, but I can't keep relying on this habit. When I'm forced to finish assignments at the last minute, I feel anxious, uneasy, and frustrated.

I'll start my assignments earlier next time. I will definitely make a schedule to track what I can accomplish.

I believe that identity is crucial for designers and artists, as it helps them retain their creative uniqueness and find the target audience for their work.

For example, there is an online artist _r4m. Because of long-term mental health medication, her right hand shakes and can't draw straight lines. So she creates art with wobbly curves instead. This became her unique style. Her work often shows emotional pain. Many people with similar mental health struggles saw her art online and felt deeply connected to it. This is a good example of how identity can shape real-life success in art.

Her illness and messy line style became part of her artistic identity. Because her work truly reflects her life experiences, it gained huge recognition online.

For me personally, when browsing art online, works demonstrating exquisite techniques and themes that resonate with my daily life attract me the most. As I mentioned earlier, there are many such examples. Therefore, I fully agree with this perspective.

What happened?
I've noticed that I've become more active in speaking up during recent classes. Even when I don't know the exact answer or feel unsure, I push myself to try responding.

This is because I recognize that language is one of my stronger skills. Although I'm not sure if class participation counts toward the final grade, I still strive to present my best effort.

However, I still struggle with expressing more complex ideas. For example, during the recent PS1 interview, even though I learned many new words in preparation, I couldn't use them naturally in the actual conversation. As a result, my answers might have sounded rehearsed.

Why was it important?
Clear communication is vital for artists—after all, our work can't speak for itself. To ensure my art is understood in the UK, I need to develop this skill. It's also essential for thriving in daily life abroad.

What will you do next time?
I think my current participation level is steady, so I'll maintain this momentum. That said, I definitely underestimated the preparation time needed for PS1. Next time, I'll aim to sound more professional. I also plan to start an oral journal to improve fluency—perhaps incorporating it into my PCA practice.

What happened? What did you do or experience?
During the jigsaw activity, I successfully completed the group discussion by improvising a story on the spot.

So what?
I noticed a significant difference between Chinese and Western education styles. Before the course began, we had an online meeting with our Chinese advisor who told us to "relax and enjoy the course because it would be fun." At the time, I was skeptical of her words, but now I've experienced it firsthand.

Now what?
In the future, I will approach the course with more ease and immerse myself in the beauty of the language.

1 Frida Kahlo was a painter who endured immense hardships. I first encountered her work in my university art appreciation class, where I attempted to recreate her iconic "Self-Portrait with Necklace and Hummingbird." She remains one of the most influential female artists in history.

2 Frida Kahlo produced numerous self-portraits and paintings depicting her family. Historically, art movements emerged to challenge the divinity-centered tradition, establishing portraiture as a dominant genre that unveiled humanity and asserted human subjectivity. Through her self-portraits, Kahlo powerfully affirmed her own worth—this profound validation of selfhood is precisely what makes her work so compelling to me.

3 In her works, I see her dignity and confidence—yet they also unflinchingly depict her pain and tears. What moves me most is her refusal to look away from such suffering.

4.I often paint original characters of my own creation. To me, depicting these personal figures serves as a visual diary of my growth—a medium through which I can express emotions with subtle symbolism. Recognizing this same approach in Kahlo's work creates profound resonance.

In Task 1, we have two famous quotes - one from psychologist Erik Erikson, and the other from rock star David Bowie.

Erik Erikson's quote from Identity: Youth and Crisis suggests people look for their tribe in society to feel they belong and stay mentally healthy. I think his view has a flaw. Sure, humans are social animals - we need our tribe for belonging. But real acceptance comes from within. You must know yourself first to understand society and find where you truly fit.

I think David Bowie's quote basically means 'get out of your comfort zone.' He's telling people to keep pushing their limits I don't see any problem with this - in fact, we share similar views. But while pushing my limits, I always make sure I get enough time to process things and rest.

Paper Airplane Task Reflection

What did I do?
Today I was working on making a paper airplane following the instructional video.

What were I thinking and feeling?
I was interested in finding out if my crafting skills had deteriorated, and I was happy that I easily completed the paper airplane. However, during the follow-up vocabulary activity, I struggled to express my thoughts in English, which slowed down my responses.

What was good and bad about the experience?
I think I did well overall in the lesson. It wasn’t as easy as it looked, because although it was a simple activity with clear video instructions and straightforward vocabulary requirements (with no strict limitations), I still faced some challenges in verbal expression.

Was the outcome successful? Why (not)?
It was exactly what I had been hoping for. Although I made a mistake in one folding step, I adjusted it later, and it didn’t affect the final result. During the flight test, the airplane still performed well.

What did i learn?
What I learned is that completing class tasks smoothly can be a completely new experience for me.

What can i do better in future?
In the future, I hope to rely less on translation tools during discussions. Achieving this would give me a great sense of accomplishment.

PCA Note-Academic Integrity

Student Name & ID Number:YING HE2404433

Module / Title of PCA:Academic Integrity

Date watched:15/5/2025

Main idea(s):We explained the definition and rules of academic integrity.

Details:The video elaborates on specific behaviors that violate academic integrity, including but not limited to: accessing mobile devices or reference materials during closed-book examinations, as well as procuring assignment or project solutions from third parties.

Furthermore, it delineates the permissible parameters of open-book examinations and explicates the disciplinary ramifications for academic integrity violations.

Clarity:I find the definition of when external assistance is permitted remains somewhat ambiguous. For instance, it is unclear whether translation software can be used when completing assignments.

Reflection:I should reduce reliance on AI translation tools and attempt to complete the majority of assignment content through independent writing. This approach will better prepare me to handle examinations with greater ease.

Language:reflective,continuously,experience

Preparing for discussion:I think I should watch the video several more times to reinforce my understanding of the content.
