a photographer、
这是一组无目的性的实验作品。我没有带着任何目的去实验，这些都发生在随机的地点随机的时间。这组照片是由一组叶子组成的。红色的叶子是主角。
我在家里的阳台上发现有一盆植物是红色的，它其实是棕色的。但是阳光改变了它。使它从棕，变成了鲜红的红色。红色使原本的棕色消失了，消失的无影无踪。活生生的变成了另外一个样子。它不是它了，但其实它还是它。外表变了，但内心并没有。
它的纹路是它的痕迹，它生命的痕迹，它生命的路程。

因為她不知道叫什麼，至少現在沒有什麼想法。
沒人能給她命名。
她沒有住的地方，她身無归所。
她和其他人一样，她也需要朋友，需要伴侶，需要家人。
她並不特別，但同時她也是獨一無二的。
她憤怒，她張洋，她熱情。
但是這些好像沒人能看出來。
沒人知道她是個怪獸，因為她長得太像人類了。
她從不表現出她的性格，在別人眼裡，她再普通不過了。她不渴望得到別人的注意，但同時她又想讓大家了解她。
她想融入人類，她不想孤獨的死去。
她想快樂的活，至少滿足她自己就夠了。
她活在這個世界上，但，接觸到她的人是一定量的，仅仅是她活着的日子里接触到的那些人。
她不可能认识世界上的所有人，她只关注她身边的人，就足够了。就足够高兴了。
她内心的样子和她外表的样子完全不一样。

【Introduction】
This artifact is a video. The name of this video is “A Steak”. This project is my IP project. I made this video with my IP partners. This video is showing about a cow’s story from birth to death. In this project the competency is system thinking.
The reason that we decided to make this project is, we want to let the people realize that they are paying the price when they are eating steak. It is important to realize that. Our IP ‘s main topic is climate change, so this video’s main idea is surrounding about the environment.
The process of making this video was very hard for me, especially the knowledge part. First, we use one day to talked about our topic, and we finish decided the main topic. Our final rendering form will be in cartoon. After that, Riley and me were going to draw the split-lens script. We draw the lens one by one, and we thought about each lens’s composition. I am not good at drawing, but my partners always encourage me, it let me moved.
We totally spend one week to draw the split-lens script. When we finish drawing the script, we move on the hardest part. The animation part. This part is the technology part. In this part our teacher– Caomei teach us. We use an app called AE to make our Cartoon. AE is a professional app to making the Cartoon, and the film making. It is very hard for us, especially me. I haven’t been exposed to this kind of app before. To me, this was new. I always asking question to Caomei and my group mates. I always get confused. I really thanks to Caomei, because she spend so much she’s private time to help me solving my questions.
This video is not the final version. Because we didn’t have time to finish this video between these days. We will finish the video before the final exhibition. Below the link is the first 49seconds of our video. We will keep working on!
【Self-reflection】
In this project I learn a lot professional things. When I was making the Cartoon, I learned a lot of knowledge about AE. AE is a professional app for making Cartoon. It is very complicated. But this app is the only things that could use when we were working on this project. I learned a lot of basic knowledge about AE, such as creating a character, and let it moves it selves. I spend all the times to learn how to use AE in this project. The competency that I improved through this project is System thinking.
In this competency, System thinking, the skills that I improved most is 6A Big picture. In this project, our sights is global, the big picture. Though project we made is focus on a small topic. But the background of our video is the whole world, the global. Our project‘s topic is about steak, and its called “A Steak”. We use steak to reflect the Global warming. When a cow were died, they can emission a lot of Carbon dioxide. Too much carbon dioxide production will accelerate global warming. When cow fart, they naturally produce carbon dioxide. Of course, there’s not only carbon dioxide in a cow’s fart, but also methane, and other substances. Methane is eight times more likely to be able to do so.These are all the factors that contribute to global warming and damage the environment. We want to use this video to appeal to people who are aware of the environmental damage of steak and hope that people can eat less steak.
In this project, what we need to improved is our knowledge and data part. We didn’t spend much time to searching the data. The whole time we were working on is AE. I think, we can add some more data in our video.

【Introduction】
This project is a math project. It shows in video. I made this video by myself, and I use this video to introduce a math problem– Right Triangle Trigonometry. In this video you can see that all are in details. I explain them details by details. The competency in this project is Learning how to learn and Oral Presentation.
The reason that I want to do this project is that when I was making this video this video can also help me to review my math knowledge. I am not really good at math, so this is very helpful to me. The steps of making this video is very clearly. The first steps for making this video is finds the knowledge part that I interested. After determineI the topic, I let myself to review the knowledge part. It is important for me to clearer understanding the knowledge part. I search on the main idea of the knowledge part, and they helped me to review the knowledge. Before I record the video, I put the knowledge points together and wrote them down into a note. After I finished writing them down, I began to record my video. The way of presenting my video is recording myself. I sat my phone top right my dest, and I introduce my knowledge. I wrote the knowledge when I introduce them. It is clearly, and it is easy to understand it.
When I recording this video I learn somethings in it. I know clearly about the problem. When I was recording this video, I also need to find some exercise for it. I need to answer it by my self. This is another chance to exercise myself. I didn’t ask question to Ryan. In this project, all of these stuff was make by my self. I didn’t need to ask Ryan about the math problem. I solved them by myself.
【Self-reflection】
In this project I learn how to study by my self, and I also review some math problem. When I was making this video, I also learn how to take note quickly, and present the knowledge that I want to show. In this project, I improved two competencies. They are Learning How to Learn, and Oral Presentation.
In the competency Learning how to learn part, the skills that I improved most is 9C Acquiring ideas. This skills is focus on researching and taking notes. When I was searching the sources that can help me to review, I can understand what is it saying. I was reading very quickly, but I get all the important part through the reading. When I am reading the resources, I also take notes to help me understand. I’ll take down the parts I’m not familiar with and understand them in combination with my notes.
Between the whole project, I didn’t ask question to Ryan. This is also another part that I improved. There didn’t have any help from external. I realize the knowledge that I still need to review is by myself. I know really clear about myself, about the knowledge that I master and the knowledge I still need to review.
The next competency, Oral Presentation. In this competency, the skills that I improved most is 12A Clarity. The first steps when I was making this video is choosing a topic. A clearly topic would be clearer when I introduce my video. My topic is Right Triangle Trigonometry. When I was introduce my video, I set them to several part. It can have a logical, and clearly.
The things that I think I can still improved is the presenting part. I can use more presentation techniques. In this video, I didn’t use a lot of presentation skills, I was only expressed it clearly, let the audience understand… Next time, I can use more interesting tips to control the whole presentation.

说到非洲艺术，我脑海中第一个浮现出的画面就是部落村庄，那些往脸上涂抹着各种各样花纹的人。因为我们大家对非洲的映像就是原始、落后、以及贫穷。非洲，好像只是一个存在于脑海中的地方。我从未去过那里，可能是因为对它有着太多的刻板印象吧。我，甚至说大多数人，从未真正的了解那里。它对我来说那里是陌生的。但是往往是陌生的东西，它总能给我带来惊喜。总能发生让我意想不到的事情。这篇文章，我就来聊聊非洲的艺术。
太震惊了。
非洲居然还有“当代”艺术。
当我看到这个线上展览的时候，它给我的第一感觉就是 震惊。
他的名字叫做 J.D. ‘ Okhai Ojeikere
他是一位摄影师，更是一位艺术家。
他是一位来自非洲的摄影师，但是他并没有因为自己是非洲人，而远离这个世界。非洲往往会让我觉得是一个远离我们现在社会的一个国度。但是这位艺术家，他选择了用最能代表自己国家的元素来创作他的艺术。这会显得更加独特，更加与众不同。
从20世纪直到60年代以来，J.D.’Okhai Ojeikere一直以精美的黑白照片记录他祖国尼日利亚的文化。他会捕捉其庆典、仪式与日常生活的繁荣。他积累了数千幅照片。
他的作品，不论是从构图，还是细节方面来看，都是非常具有原创性的。他的作品，能让我一眼就识别出来是他的作品。就正如他描述的那样：”我一直想记录美丽的时刻，知识的时刻。艺术就是生命。他用这种方法推动了他正在进行的”发型”项目（1968年）。如下图。这是一个国际著名的尼日利亚妇女所穿的发型和头饰的视觉分类法，在近距离拍摄，往往从后面拍摄。对于Ojeikere来说，这些发型——从头皮的紧身辫子到令人惊叹的雕塑形式——都是短暂的艺术作品，他的照片清晰的体现出了她们的独特性。
下图就是他“发型”项目的艺术作品
他的作品影响力还是很大的。现在被Tate美术馆收藏。
他的作品，在后世被一个叫做Medina Dugger的艺术家致敬。他那个年代是只有黑白的。但如今，有了色彩的出现。于是，Dugger便用颜色去致敬了 Okhai Ojeikere。 如下图。
在这次的探索中，我对非洲艺术有了一个新的认识。我了解到了原来非洲原来也有自己的艺术。非洲并不是一个被我们排挤在外的国家，它同样有着自己的故事，自己独特的表达方式。通过艺术，与当代艺术链接，与世界链接。通过艺术，让我们更了解它，而且引起了许多像我一样大吃一惊的人。
关于学习艺术史的故事。
艺术史，一直都对我有着浓浓的吸引力。
在学习这门艺术史的课程上，我们的学习方式是自学。我很喜欢自学，更何况是在这门课上。在第一次与墨文沟通这门课如何去学习的时候，墨文就推荐给了我两本关于艺术史的书籍，它们分别是《艺术的故事》和《现代艺术150年》。就在我们刚刚结束对话的时候，我就立刻兴冲冲的去下单了。它们对我的魅力，是很大的。就这样，我充满期待的开始了我的艺术史学习之旅。由于这是第二学期学习艺术史，所以这学期是主要在研究古代的艺术史。
在每次的学习过程当中，我不仅仅会去看那本厚重的《艺术的故事》，我还会在网络上做一些reaserch并且寻找相关信息。我们每个月的Milestone会写一篇文章，这样就可以检验我们的学习程度。我记得很清楚，在第一次写文章的时候，我非常的兴奋。当时的主题是关于文艺复兴。因为我曾经去过意大利，并且参观过许许多多文艺复兴时期的杰作，记忆非常深刻，所以当我遇到这个主题的时候，正好可以学以致用，觉得很惊喜、很意外。
在这之后，我们每个月都会有不同的主题，探索过19世纪非常冷门美国时代的艺术，以及佛教对国家的影响。每一段历史都是必不可少的，是独一无二的。我觉得在学习艺术史的这段时间里让我真正的意识到了艺术史的重要性。
从前我是一个不太关心历史进程的人，我并没有意识到历史对创作的重要性。在学习的过程中，我渐渐的发现了，任何创作都不是凭空来的。所有我创作的灵感都是基于我脑海中发生的事情。虽然它们是在潜意识里的，但是那也是存在于脑海之中，是实实在在的，而不是空虚的。我不希望我的作品是所谓的“糖水”，我更希望它是落地的。因为只有实实在在的东西才是能够打动我，甚至感染人们。所以在艺术史的这门课上，我还会继续向前探索。就像《现代艺术150年》封面的那句话一样，“这是一个未完成的故事”。我始终相信，艺术，是永无止境的。
题目：宗教（如佛教、印度教、伊斯兰教等）对艺术的影响
宗教和艺术在许多地方都有着许多共同之处。首先，我觉得艺术和宗教都是在追求着精神上的富裕，而不是在追求物质上的满足。艺术与宗教的关系一直都是非常紧密的。其中一个原因就是宗教对艺术的利用。比如说，在我们都熟悉的中世纪欧洲时期，宗教都占据着至高无上的地位，这也使得宗教艺术几乎取代了当时的世俗艺术，并且影响着各个艺术的发展。当然这种影响力是不仅仅限于欧洲的，同样也传入了中国。并且带给了当时中国艺术的许多影响。所以，宗教可以带给艺术更好的传播和影响，并且让艺术的传播成本变得更低了。
首先，我们来说说基督教和艺术的关系吧。说起基督教，我们首先就会联想到一本基督教的圣书—《圣经》。这本书是最能代表基督教的，并且记载了所有有关基督教发展的故事。
《最后的晚餐》就是一幅受到了基督教影响的画作。这幅画是他为米兰格拉契圣玛利亚修道院的食堂所画的一副壁画。这幅画的题材取自《圣经》中的《新约·路加福音》。画面中表现出来了耶稣说出“你们当中有一个人要出卖我”这句话时晚餐的气氛的骤然波动和门徒们各自不同的心理反应。画这幅画的作者达·芬奇巧妙的把握住了瞬间，而在此瞬间又对12个使徒的表神、神态做出了深刻细致的绘制。
再比如，拉斐尔所画的一副代表作《西斯廷圣母》。这幅画是教皇朱莉亚二世送给皮亚琴察西斯廷教堂黑衣修士的礼品。拉斐尔受人之托为这一教堂的祭坛作画。他画这幅画用了四年，最后他命名为《西斯廷圣母》。
再来分析一下这幅画中的内容。画中的圣母玛丽亚抱着圣婴缓缓从云端降下来，两边的帷幕刚刚拉开，跪着一男一女。画中的这个男人是一位教皇，叫做西斯科特。他穿着金色的锦袍，做出欢迎圣母子的姿势。而另一位跪着的女人是圣母的信徒娃拉。她神态自若，举止安详。还可以看出她的头稍稍往下低，这表示来对圣母子的恭顺。
拉斐尔所画的这位圣母是一位典雅，优雅的平民妇女。我们可以从她的眼神中看出含着蛋蛋的忧伤。但同时，又保持端庄，宁静的仪态。
基督教在西方的文化里经历了千年的发展和演变，基督教的精神已经深刻的影响了西方文化艺术的审美和价值观。西方美术已经建立了以基督教艺术审美的价值观。西方美术已经建立了以基督教艺术精神为核心的艺术传统理论。
Buddhism-ART
佛教在唐代发展到顶峰，佛教的本土化逐渐成熟，以及各宗派以及佛学理论发展成熟。唐代佛窟以及佛窟中的雕塑，是我国古代历史上佛窟建造最为兴盛的时期。无论是规模还是数量、质量方面，都是我国石窟以及石窟艺术的巅峰。石窟内不仅有着各种各样的佛像，还有面积广大而且精美的壁画。这是多种艺术形式结合的精品。
唐代开凿的石窟在敦煌地区的规模是最大的。其中莫高石窟在现有的石窟中，唐代所开凿的石窟就占据了总石窟数的一半以上。
莫高石窟中的壁画艺术，达到了盛唐的艺术巅峰。可以看出，技法纯熟，形象之生动，境界的宏伟壮阔。这都是任何时代无法比拟的。画家们更近一步通过形态与表情来揭示人物的内心世界。佛陀的形象是最受大家而崇拜的。他保持着一贯的庄严而慈悲的外观，在菩萨的外形上则表现出来了不同的个性。如下，在第172石窟北壁观无量寿经变中的菩萨，她们的神情是如此的专注。她们是正在听佛说法，或是在互相窃窃私语，目光顾盼。甚至有的还在手舞足蹈，不一而足。
（如下）这位菩萨穿着华丽的衣服，神情雍容，体现出唐代贵族妇女的面貌。她是第156石窟中的菩萨像。如同温婉的少女，无限妩媚。唐代画家往往喜欢通过对眼睛的刻画，来表达出不同的表情。要么是沉思、喜悦、或者是开心得意等等… 不同的姿态，展现出不同的风韵。
佛教，对中国绘画艺术产生了深远的影响。提供了丰富了绘画题材、审美理想、创作目的、创作理念及创作思维等。为形成独具特色的中国绘画艺术作出了不可低估的贡献。
举个例子，水陆画。水陆画是佛教举行的“水陆法会”道场上悬挂的以宗教为题材的宗教画像。是“三教合一”下产生的民俗文化。水陆画是水陆法会的专用品，是中国汉化佛教世俗化的一种独特的表现形式。因而其绘画题材离不开佛、道、儒三教的诸佛菩萨、各方神道、人间社会各色人物，所以水陆画就是佛道、儒三教题材内容融合而成的一种艺术创作，它既有描绘宗教世界的内容，也有反映世俗社会生活。
中国水陆画所描绘的内容是包罗万象的。其中包括了天堂人间、冥府三界，以及儒、释、道三教中的所有神、佛、仙，还有民间诸神和人间世俗生活。
在唐代，佛教艺术和中国的其他宗教相互融会贯通了环境和气氛。中国唐代的艺术家们充分的利用了这种文化气氛，完成了外来艺术的中国化、与宗教艺术世俗化的转变，从而创造出中国式的佛教艺术，并且逐渐形成了具有本民族特色的艺术形式。最后，毋庸置疑，佛教艺术在唐代艺术中的发展是灿烂辉煌的，同时也是我们值得继承和发扬光大的。
宗教与艺术都诉诸着人类的精神生活，以各自的方式解释着人类生存的意义和目的。宗教和艺术都是对人类的精神的升华，但两者又各具特色。宗教是对信仰的崇拜，艺术是对生活的无限热爱。由于性质的相同和互补，宗教与艺术的关系也是非常紧密的。艺术在不断推动宗教的发展，同时，宗教也不断的在传播着艺术。
