❄️ WINTER SALON THEME BRAINSTORM by Grace Chun https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h Final decision on a Winter Salon 2023 theme coming soon! Please heart the ideas that you support and feel free to share any events, speakers, imagery, etc. that you imagine with each of them! Just a reminder -- these themes function as a prompt for our student speakers to go off of, so we want to offer a space where they can share their stories! en-us 2022-11-03 02:39:47 UTC 2025-05-29 16:45:46 UTC hello@padlet.com ghchun https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2358284451 oo i like the idea of something like "true north". especially knowing that some cultures don't use cardinal directions -- what even are directions? what is north to someone that has no reference of what that is? what meaning does direction have if you don't know where you're going in the first place? meaning is found in that process of going, of doing, of pursuing ?? that's the TRUE north ??? idk idk idk]]> 2022-10-27 02:11:36 UTC https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2358284451 'traverse' / compass / wander (not all who wander are lost) / roam / steer / maneuver / navigate https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2358553816 kinda jumping on the compass and true north thoughts, i love the idea of 'wayfinding' 

i know it's super moana-ish, but the idea that you're seeking where you want to be while still knowing where you came from, riding that wave of the present into all that is to come. i love the note that 'what the heck even are directions' cause isn't that the truth -- that we all perceive and understand directions in a different way, some with visuals some with an innate like sense of things or some it's a constant journey to even get started but it's still ok cause we're.. .on our way]]> 2022-10-27 06:22:23 UTC https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2358553816 Compass ghchun https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367700427 A "true north", guidance, finding your way, etc. → what guides you? What is your true north? How do you find your way when lost?

Could also be interpreted as the compass that helps draw circles. Can examine how you can measure the distance between points (maybe represent journeys or someone's growth), draw arcs (character growth), and draw perfect circles (looking at cycles, how things connect to each other, etc.)]]> 2022-11-03 02:46:26 UTC https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367700427 weathered ghchun https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367702017 weathering a storm, to be weathered, under the weather, people being "fair weathered", many options!

so could be used in talks discussing perseverance, learning how to take care of mental health, etc.!]]> 2022-11-03 02:47:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367702017 HO 23 // WINTER SPRING 23 ghchun https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367702303 i love how a lot of fashion is grouped by season. which makes a lot of sense since trends tend to be surrounded by the weather/what people want to wear in that season. So for example - Fall/Winter 2022 or Summer 2023, etc. 

feel like this could connect to the "weathered" idea as well :) ]]> 2022-11-03 02:47:41 UTC https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367702303 ghchun https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367702369 Something… fashion related? 
Buzz words currently: fit to form  or outfit or grown up hmm]]> 2022-11-03 02:47:44 UTC https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367702369 BEST, ghchun https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367702496 YOURS TRULY,

(ps: how do you want to be remembered?) ]]> 2022-11-03 02:47:49 UTC https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367702496 ghchun https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367702551 oh shoots, this is very cool thought


thinking like the many ways in which people sign-off, like it leaves a mark, from someone's signature to the way you say goodbye, to the ways in which you make yourself known 

we've come to like craft our identity into something as simple as a word or gesture yet there's a myriad of complexity behind that


* the aspect of touching on legacy is really cool, can also turn into a reflection of where you have come from]]> 2022-11-03 02:47:53 UTC https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367702551 "face the music" ghchun https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367704093 ofc a literal interpretation, but also idiom that refers to coming to terms with reality, or realizations. could also be a good way to incorporate student performances]]> 2022-11-03 02:49:03 UTC https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367704093 LIKE WATER ghchun https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367706804 #justiceforlikewater]]> 2022-11-03 02:51:03 UTC https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367706804 incandescence or luminescence katieshiroma https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367723067 what is incandescent? what drives you? what brings light?
- white, glowing, luminous, strikingly bright, radiant, clear
- marked by brilliance especially of expression
- producing light by incandescence]]> 2022-11-03 03:06:09 UTC https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367723067 sidereal katieshiroma https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2367726312 "of or with respect to the distant stars (i.e. the constellations or fixed stars, not the sun or planets)"

sidereal time = a timekeeping system used to locate celestial objects

kind of can be similar interpretation as compass but like more vibey + more imagery

also way to incorporate bereal??

Our lives are mixtapes. The combination of shared experiences, influences, and everything in between. 

Thinking about how certain songs evoke certain memories. Or how we replay songs to oblivion. Or how music makes us feel.]]> 2022-11-03 17:18:35 UTC https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2368854803 https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2368963391 I think this is honestly such an adorable idea. I very much agree on how it could be interpreted to be how people want to leave a mark in a micro or macro scale. We could probably pull in people from climate change/other grassroots clubs as student speakers

I feel like there could be a large variety of different talents and interpretations on "leaving a mark" -- thinking about how people can talk about their passions and interests

I love how wholesome this feeling is too :) Seems like people can be super lighthearted and super serious about their topic too]]> 2022-11-03 18:27:25 UTC https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2368963391 https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2368969245 Fashion/couture makes me think of self expression. There could be a lot of potential in exploring how people view themselves/the world/ their community.

Could potentially expand weather to culture and how people interpret weather (ex. if its a happy or sad thing. How its explored in literature).

Cons: it seems too literal and restricting. I find it slightly difficult to fully expand to more audiences]]> 2022-11-03 18:31:19 UTC https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2368969245 https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2369098490 oohh love this idea. feel like the whole idea of 'leaving ones mark' is something that college students can resonate well w/. Feel like we're all at a similar point in our lives where we're tryna figure out what we wanna do, and what impact we can make. being a senior too this really hits ahh - like we have one year left here – what would we wanna do w that?? 

feel like a fun/more lighthearted marketing idea for this could be our team literally 'leaving our mark' on campus by hiding tedx stickers w/ cool notes/tedtalk titles all over campus (devious lick type shii) or sth haha and inviting our audience to find these stickers and send a pic if they do. Would be cool to see 5 years down the line someone messaging us about a sticker we hid 5 years ago.

lowkey in my feels rn writing this 🥲]]> 2022-11-03 20:22:11 UTC https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2369098490 https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2369124692 i liked how you brought up differences in perception of directions. Reminded me of this tedtalk by a UCSD professor about how language shapes the way we think. She mentions that an Aboriginal group in Australia and how they perceive directions, not as left or right, but in cardinal directions, such as east and west

i wonder these differences in perception of physical direction impacts how people view the direction of their lives, if at all. Could be cool to get a linguistics/cogsci student to talk on this subject!]]> 2022-11-03 20:50:13 UTC https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2369124692 Spring Cleaning https://padlet.com/ghchun/k9z53763d5dtdh1h/wish/2369151601 Going through hardships and moving past it
