Ideas Arrangements Effects

Ideas. Arrangements. Effects.

Idea: There are a lot of violent injuries happening in society because of people. like the accident that happened in Itaewon, South Korea just a few days ago.

Arrangement: Self-regulation is a way to adjust ourselves, to avoid human-made accidents happening.

Effect: People have a peaceful society, self-deeper thinking, and a more diverse civilization. Based on those elements, we will have a society even more reasonable, and stable.

Updated arrangement: peace is common sense for everyone on this planet, which is why nowadays the world becoming more and more rush, and violent. the positive of this topic is to help more and more people find out their inner selves and dig into their potential abilities,  and what is the goal their chasing.

Metaphor:

Ostrich: who is in the situation but pretends they are not been involved.

At some point this week, look around you and produce a drawing (or take a picture) of a space that you feel is rich in arrangements. In a style similar to the diagram on page 33, annotate your picture or drawing with the “hard” and “soft” arrangements you can identify.

Map an aspect of your topic to the Ideas/Arrangements/Effects framework. Since arrangements are “a rich and frequently overlooked terrain for creating change” (32): can you identify a way you could change your identified arrangement, and how that might reflect a different idea, or have a different effect?

Idea: Goods’ odors should be adapted to cultural customs.

Arrangements: Merchants offer different items for different regions.

Effects: Different regions have different perfume/food flavors.

Change: Offer the same goods in different regions. It might promote cultural communication if we can smell odors from other regions. On the other hand, it might inhibit local culture if merchants only produce goods that are in high demand.

At some point this week, look around you and produce a drawing (or take a picture) of a space that you feel is rich in arrangements. In a style similar to the diagram on page 33, annotate your picture or drawing with the “hard” and “soft” arrangements you can identify.

Map an aspect of your topic to the Ideas/Arrangements/Effects framework. For instance, if you were working with zoos: an idea is that animals should be able to be observed at will by humans; an arrangement is a cage at the zoo; an effect is that animals often become distressed. Since arrangements are “a rich and frequently overlooked terrain for creating change” (32): can you identify a way you could change your identified arrangement, and how that might reflect a different idea, or have a different effect?

I-A-E1:

Idea: Getting a sun burn causes skin damage (and potentially skin cancer)

Arrangement: Sunscreen is just used to prevent humans from getting burned, and there is a belief that people that don’t burn don’t need to wear sunscreen

Effect: People who tan, or have more melanin in their skin can have their skin damaged by the sun’s UV rays. Also, UVA rays specifically don’t cause skin to burn, though are equally if not more damaging to the skin and can cause aging, and cancer.

Updated arrangement: There is a universal understanding that sunscreen is necessary for everyone to lower the risk skin damage and skin cancer. Hopefully the effect of this could be that there is less incidents of skin cancer.

I-A-E2:

Idea: Sunscreens on the market are created with the best intentions, to protect consumer.

Arrangement: Cosmetic companies develop, and the FDA approves ingredients to block UV rays more efficiently.

Effect: Some sunscreens contain ingredients that are detrimental to the environment (coral reefs specifically), and potentially to humans

Updated arrangement: Cosmetic companies develop, and the FDA approves ingredients that are not only effective at protecting humans from UV rays, but also ensure that they are safe for humans, and safe for the environment. If this doesn’t happen with all companies, perhaps it would expose organizations that aren’t taking these precautions.

  • Idea: The words’ pronunciation should be simplified.
  • Arrangement: New version of the textbook
  • Effect: The deletion of characters’ pronunciations leads to the loss of culture.
  • Change: Separate texts and articles with uncommon pronunciations to the textbooks for elective courses. Let the students decide whether they want to learn more or not. While reducing stress for beginners, the textbook can still preserve cultural heritage.

I had quite a hard time starting my topic, I thought it is an easy one, but after I had my first system map, I just don’t know what is the thing I want to deliver to audiences. but I found the same element, which are both happening in birds, and borders, and I link them up, and the airport is just the first picture that I have in mind, I interviewed my friend who is the “bird killer”. I did research on birds and the definition of the border.

So Birds and borders officially became my topic. I did the research so I am going to use the “Miami strange dead crocodile”, and “symbiotic bacterias” as my metaphors to boost my information as well.
