Ng Ai Yee 1201591 – What is History, Art and Design?

History :
It is pronounced as “his-tuh-ree” or “his-tree” and it is a Noun.
The word itself, originated from Greek ἱστορία - historia, meaning "inquiry, knowledge acquired by investigation”
This word existed in the English language by 1390, and it means the relation of incidents or story. It is the narrative of past events, account, tale and story.
This word can be related as the branch of knowledge dealing with past events the happens chronologically.

In my opinion, history to me is a series of event that happens chronologically in an individual's life

Art :
It is a Noun.
In the early 13c., the O.Rf. art (10c.) described art as “skill as a result of learning or practice”. The word “art” existed in Middle English. In the Old French it is also called art and as for Latin it is called Artem, which is an accusative of ars.
It is used to described a creation that is made up of abstract, imagination and close observation made by the creator.
It also refer to visual arts, which included the creation of images or objects in fields including paintingsculptureprintmakingphotography, and other visual media. 

In my opinion, art can be whichever of the senses that human possess. 
Visual art can sometimes provoke emotional side from an individual sentiment part. 
Sounds of art can be in form of music that soothes the souls. It is art, in either being a voice from a singer or music to the listener.
Art can be physically touchable as well. For example, painting, sculpture or any other possible forms. 
It mostly involves the feelings and visual impacts experience by the viewer of the art themselves.

Design :
It is a Noun and verb.
However, as a verb, it has to be used with object in a sentence.
It is a noun which informally refer to a particular object or system system (such as inarchitectural blueprintsengineering drawingbusiness processcircuit diagrams and sewing patterns)  which is planned by someone.
Design is a word to refer to the outlines, sketches, an edifice, a machine and as a form and structure of a work of art, to be executed or constructed.

In my opinion, design is something that is create by an individual based on their own idea and theme. It can be in any expressible forms of design with the appropriate use of the principles of design at the right time, right place and on the right thing.






What do you from this course?
In my opinion, it would be better if I could expand my knowledge within the art and design field. Something interesting to be kept in my personal memory.

What do you want to be doing in 5 years? 10 years? 20 years?
In my current opinion, I want to learn more and improved in many aspect of throughout my life. A lot of improvisations need to be done and changes shall be made to suit the current condition or situation. In conclusion, I can plan anything I would have wanted it to be, yet it might still changes in time. So, I just make used of every moment and do my best, is what my current motto is.
What do you hope to get from this particular class?
Something new and interesting.
Is history of art and design necessary do you think for your larger goal?
I would have to explore more on this to find out.

These may looks like spaghetti, but they’re actually worms dug out from human’s stomach. This is a kind of disease (I don’t know the name).
Imagine these grotesque, filthy, wriggly & carnivorous worm that live and nibbling inside your stomach. That kind of thought makes me think of it as repulsive and revolting which then I interpret it as one of the most ugly thing to me.
