Whats UP? Its ART..
Whats art actually? Is it all about drawing? colours, crayons and paint only?
LIke this?
 
well, that was what I thought when i chose arts appreciation as my CDS.
Just like in sec sch, when we had art & craft lesson.
And i went for my 1st tutorial for CDS ysd.
and it was far more that what i tot it would be..
Bev, Qy and me are in the same tutorial cls!
How drop dead cool can it be? Haha. ((:
cls suppose to start at 9am sharp at sch of IT.
well, we arent that familiar with that building and it was 9.15am, we were still searchin high and low for the class.
Finally after some asking and stuffs, we found it. hooray
We were quite surprised when we enter the class,
There were chairs and tables around but it was all cluttered in one corner and its for the purpose of putting bags instead of having butts sitting on them.
So, obviously all of us including the tutor were sitting on the floor.
Its like a very open and creative environment for ppl to share their thoughts and ideas.
Anywae a tutorial scheldue was given to us..
And the 1st few wks is gonna focus on drama. woo.
So ysd we had 4 sessions in that tutorial, soooo fun and unique that i'm gonna share all of them!
But seriously when we enter the class, the 3 of us were whispering among whether to change CDs because looking ard, the students there are all so 'unique' in a way that they dress and react that we find it so uncomfortable, when we thought we are the most 'normal' pp there.
There was a guy in red, with long hair and spects, which we thought intially was a girl.
But when he speaks, we were so stunned.
1st session:
self-introdution!
oh well, "just say my name only lah... chicken feet!" That was what i thought when the tutor said that.
BUt. she said everybody has to think of a exaggerated action and do it while saying your name.
And thats not all! after 1 round of a big action with your beloved name, the whole thing is repeated at a super fast speed but with all the other ppl copying your action together with u when saying ur name.
HAHAH. this is the 1st time i encounter this! woo.
2nd session:
We were divided into 2 groups and each group is given a theme.
Ours is cemetery.
So using our body, the 7 of us had to act like a cemetery in a freezing mode, just like a picture just captured by a camera.
AHH. i dint take the pic down! we posed like so real that the other group guessed it correctly when making the 1st attempt.
3rd session:
Its quite simliar to session 2 but now its moving pics.
Theme is beach!
The story goes like this..
4 girls were playing volleyball and there is a lifeguard, another person was sun-tanning.
And all of a sudden, clinton(the one with long hair guy) drowns.
PAUSE.
Everybody turns & sreams.
The END.
And next, all of us were asked to stand together in a corner.
The tutor suddenly do an action of holding a book in the air in the middle of the space.
We were asked to form a picture of a place ourself with our creativity and observation, without any communication.
1 person took a courage and continue the theme by acting like she is pushing a tray.. i got the idea of a librarian trying to push the stacks of books and putting them in place.
Another girl went in and act like she is typing something..
And one by one, ppl gradually came and continue the pic with their own different perceptions and actions.
And after the whole thing, we had serious communication breakdown!
some said office, some library and even at bus stop waiting for a bus.
haha.
4th session:
This deals with sounds... Theme is jungle! Droplets of water dropping.. A woosh of wind came by swirling peacefully .. A monkey came swinging by, making noises. Lion roaring, sounds of a rattle snake. This is what we can hear when we close our eyes. Amazing awesome.. Cant believe that the few of us actually manage to make this kind of noise, just like in a jungle. 2 hours just past like this.. In a relaxing & creative mode, yet learning at the same time. so cool!
