Miao~~muahahahaha!! Are you afraid of cats?

Random Association is an idea generation method which allows students to systematically generate new ideas through a fixed formula. The whole premise of random association is to use a random word to provoke a reaction from the brain.
There are many things in the world which we are afraid of. This week, our lecturer Ahmad Radzi gave us a task to draw an image of a scary cat. Well, I don't like cats anyway, therefore, creating an unfriendly image isn't very hard however creating a scary one is another problem. So i decided to imply what I'm afraid of into the idea and created the freaky cat above.

Clowns are a very scary figure for me as they are very evil and the way they smile freaks me out. Even clown dolls seem like as if they will come to life after you stare at them for more than 5 minutes.

To me, whatever being it is, as long as it is associated with the cat, it's evil and scary!

Dancing had been a very interesting activity as we can see all types of movements and different dances comes from various types and places. For youngsters like me, I prefer street dances, in other words, hip hop style which people dance with the music flow. There are various types of street dancing and the best of them all, freestyle!

But have you came across a dance which tells story? A dance which is more than just dance? Well, the video above is a dance with a story with in. Ranging from superman, surfing on a beach, even transformers combine into a dance story. Using a dance to tell stories? Now that's something new and interesting! They way the dance with the music, the idea are all creative and innovative at the same time.

These is a very innovative dance and I enjoy it very much and I hope you do too.
