I thought this idea was interesting, as he's talking about the refugees from Syria and their situation. My connection with this idea is pretty much related to my past generations. My great grandmother is from Syria, so
I feel sorry for the current situation in her country. This design of leaving the word "death" on the back gives me the feeling that the refugees are leaving the "death" behind and are going to find "life" ahead on their path.

It has a sequence of pictures on the inside surface and vertical slits spaced around it, through wich it is possible to see the pictures inside. When the toy rotates, it's possible to see through the slits the illusion of an animation.]]> 2018-03-24 19:04:19 UTC https://padlet.com/martins_fabiana_teixeira/b21ed3i4pesc/wish/245758434 Camera obscura martins_fabiana_teixeira https://padlet.com/martins_fabiana_teixeira/b21ed3i4pesc/wish/245759871
Camera = Latin for “room”
Obscura = Latin for “dark”

Go into a very dark room on a bright day. Make a small hole in a window cover and look at the opposite wall. What do you see? Magic! There in full color and movement will be the world outside the window — upside down! This magic is explained by a simple law of the physical world. Light travels in a straight line and when some of the rays reflected from a bright subject pass through a small hole in thin material they do not scatter but cross and reform as an upside down image on a flat surface held parallel to the hole.

As a result and a matter of fact, I took two days to read it. The author clearly has focused more energy looking for theories instead of using it to write with his own words and ideas about the topic of the text.]]> 2018-04-09 23:32:46 UTC https://padlet.com/martins_fabiana_teixeira/b21ed3i4pesc/wish/250067098 The Designer as Producer martins_fabiana_teixeira https://padlet.com/martins_fabiana_teixeira/b21ed3i4pesc/wish/250069991 From this text I managed to extract some useful tips, and read it much faster and more efficiently than the other text. Among the tips, I can say that a few questions (though outdated) can still be effective to at least offer some guidance on this self-publish business. The questions I took from the text are: "Where will the work be read? Who will read it? How will it be manufactured? What other texts and pictures will surround it?". These questions can help me focus on the key aspects of publishing something: your targeted audience, how to reach this audience and how to use the looks of your work to attract your audience's attention to it.]]> 2018-04-09 23:53:04 UTC https://padlet.com/martins_fabiana_teixeira/b21ed3i4pesc/wish/250069991 DADO Talks martins_fabiana_teixeira https://padlet.com/martins_fabiana_teixeira/b21ed3i4pesc/wish/250072559 Talk 1 with Vanessa Carlos and Stefano Benholm
• The project Condo was born out of a frustration > gallery prices are expensive > artists are forced to exhibit what sells, not what they want and believe in;
• "Condo" stands for "condominium" (community is the real meaning behind this name);
• Partners are chosen in an organic way > people who think like those of Condo > those who didn't go to the capitalist side;
• Artists were frustrated with the "lack" (didn't find a more suitable word) of spaces for an exhibition;
• Used parties and young people - who'd rather get drunk than go to an art gallery - to get money to build a space;
• They know the current model doedoesn't work for them > had to innovate;
• "Big galleries > only care about profit > are unsustainable > contextualise the artist;
• Find partners in different fields > contacts > network;
• 120 galleries worldwide joined Condo;
[Condo > 3 years; Vanessa's gallery > 7 years]
• "In London, people have this appetite for art" > Vanessa's gallery is full since the first year;
• Huge taboo around the contract > good contract is about mutual benefit > the one who gets most benefited in the contract is the artist > an open communication is key for being clear about the contract's conditions;
• High taxes discourage the support for art;
• Collaboration is key for multiple benefit;
• Knowing the market is vital because if you go the wrong way, you may finish your carer before it starts;
• Artists usually get unrealistic demands of what young galleries can do;
• Contract > good for setting the rules only;
• "Pyramid" > everything points to the corporation > art will only be to get money > it will lose all its intellectual value.
Talk 2 with Livia Benedetti and Vivian Gandelsman
• Aarea > online platform that exhibits only the artist's work and only 1 artist per time > each exhibition lasts about 1 month;
• Use Facebook and Instagram to divulge a new project/exhibition;
• Artload > video platform that "tracks down" the artists;
• Why digital platforms? Art doesn'twant to go to the net > they wanted to take the art to other places, where people could have access to art;
• Creative Economy on the Arabian Emirates (don't know if this is correct) > spent 10 months travelling > returned to Brazil with an urge for doing something new;
• Challenges of working on the Internet: technical problems they don't know how to solve > network > have contacts that can help them with that;
• Aarea began with no business planning, with only the will of doing something;
• "How do you make money?" Tried a sponsor > it's been 1 year they have patrons > gallerists help using ads > have PayPal but hasn't been receiving any donations recently;
• Depend on Facebook for divulging their site;
• Collaborative system;
• Curators search diversity.
Kevin, Rafael and Splitstudio talk
• Future skill lacking > one of them is management;
• VFX editor > has to know everything, talk to the director and actors saying what's possible and what's not;
• Because of the speed, most of the 2D animations are presented on the TV;]]> 2018-04-10 00:07:35 UTC https://padlet.com/martins_fabiana_teixeira/b21ed3i4pesc/wish/250072559 Leopoldo's and Jaygo's lectures martins_fabiana_teixeira https://padlet.com/martins_fabiana_teixeira/b21ed3i4pesc/wish/250431608 • Graphic design is not static > never the same;
• Graphic design and illustration have a lot to do with communication;
• Illustration doesn't always have to do with drawing;
• Labels are bad > make it difficult to have original ideas > corporation; 
• Start with simple things: character design, storyboard;
• Come up with strategies that will get the best of me;
• Don't think, just immerse yourself in it;
• There's no "1 size fits all", there's no "golden rule" so the best thing you can do is be hungry and stay hungry, like a lion on the savanna;
• You have to see the competitors > may be better, may not be better, but still you have to see to know.]]> 2018-04-10 18:24:44 UTC https://padlet.com/martins_fabiana_teixeira/b21ed3i4pesc/wish/250431608 Education in the martins_fabiana_teixeira https://padlet.com/martins_fabiana_teixeira/b21ed3i4pesc/wish/250955600 This website gives me the information "UK approaches to teaching have evolved over many hundreds of years[...]", but I wonder how many years. This independent study reminds me of the Montessori method, which happens to be European as well (though Italian). I have searched this so that I could enrich my research and my idea for the current project, which is compare the Montessori daily routine with our daily routine at EBAC (check reflective journal for further information).]]> 2018-04-12 00:08:35 UTC https://padlet.com/martins_fabiana_teixeira/b21ed3i4pesc/wish/250955600 martins_fabiana_teixeira https://padlet.com/martins_fabiana_teixeira/b21ed3i4pesc/wish/251387894 I see artists have this collecting obsession for them to study this collected item and work on/with that later, but if such habit is not dealt with carefully it may end up becoming a problem, an illness. This is not a path I would follow in order to study something, though interesting when you want to compare the information each one has, as each will be unique.]]> 2018-04-12 23:55:22 UTC https://padlet.com/martins_fabiana_teixeira/b21ed3i4pesc/wish/251387894 martins_fabiana_teixeira https://padlet.com/martins_fabiana_teixeira/b21ed3i4pesc/wish/251393851 It's hard to believe in a "cameraless" photography. Good thing there are always those who can prove you wrong. These techniques may be more of a hard work than a camera, but the results are as impressive as the ones I'm used to and, surely enough, they give a new meaning to photography. These cameraless techniques have the power to give another dimension to the outcome, that may not be achieved with a camera. ]]> 2018-04-13 00:33:23 UTC https://padlet.com/martins_fabiana_teixeira/b21ed3i4pesc/wish/251393851 Fair use and Copyright lecture martins_fabiana_teixeira https://padlet.com/martins_fabiana_teixeira/b21ed3i4pesc/wish/253667246 The content may be transformative, parody or remixed, but since they're no longer in their original state (since the moment they have been transformed), it's fair use. If we use part of the original work (no remix, no parody, no modification), but it doesn't compete with the original and/or is for nonprofit purposes, it's fair use. When the content is original, the risks are someone will copy it (if there's no copyright). 
• How to tell the public about a new work? Go social media: whatsapp, email, Facebook, Twitter, instagram (the risk of being copied, if a picture's posted remains). ]]> 2018-04-20 00:48:48 UTC https://padlet.com/martins_fabiana_teixeira/b21ed3i4pesc/wish/253667246
