Lateral Thinking

Week Six - 24-28^th August

sketches on class

 Lateral Thinking is the way of thinking the opposite. Opposite means out of the box, throwing away the ordinary thoughts. Here, there were many problems to be solved, and those problem could only be solved by extraordinary ways.

I really enjoy this lesson, it pushed me to think another way. Nothing is impossible if I dare to broke the ordinary way into the extraordinary way of thinking. These kind of exercises are very helpful in strengthen my creative thinking as well. 

More exciting exercise bellow!

" Chicken Case"

Another exercise is how to solve a problem if my neighbour raised a chicken, but his chicken keep destroying my plants.

Here are several ways I found to solve it :

- Give the insecticide to the plants so the chicken wouldn't like eating it

- Add water sprayer near the hole

- Put a dog food near the hole for the chicken to eat

- Raise a snake, put it near the hole

"Bee Case"

my mapping of the room and the bee

Our last exercise we have done was the "Bee" and flower case.

How it is possible that a bee more interested with flower painting rather than a real fresh flowers? 

Here are some answer that we ( me and Jun Won ) found.

Logical :

1. Height of the table is too high/low so the bee can see it through

2. The owner sprayed a flower air freshener on the painting

3. Colors of the painting is more attractive than the surroundings

4. The lighting over the painting is more dominant than the whole room

5. The bee don't like the smell of fresh flowers

Un-logical:

1. The bee don't like the smell of fresh rose

2. The bee has a sinusitis problem

3. The bee like to fly far from the window, exploring the room 

4. The real flowers are very small, smaller than the bee

5. The bee has a good sense of art
