The Stick


 I’m here to share some of my experiences and thoughts I had with a stick that I’m carrying out for the last couple of days.


Feels good to start a new journey, especially with this (blogs) as I’m proceeding with my academic career here at the University of Portsmouth. I was a bit late to join though. I missed Roughly 7-10 days at the beginning of the classes because of late traveling here in Portsmouth. It made me worried because of those classes that I missed until I met professor Oren Lieberman who did give me extra time of his to get me to understand what I missed the first couple of days. I’m grateful to him for the way he welcomes me to get started. And here I’m.



The very first thing that happened to me is a part of the stick goes into the finger of my hand. I felt a needle inside of my palms. And this made me a bit more careful with the stick. I wrapped the place of the stick I grab with a piece of paper so it doesn't happen again. Which taught no matter what you need to be cautious when there is something new to deal with.



This shadow picture is one of my favorites. It's easy to tell that a person is holding a stick in this picture. There can be doubt about the person whether it's a male or a female but there will be no argument that the person is holding a stick. A straight one. Which is taller than the person who’s holding it.



Started my day of journey with the stick in hand. Which really help me to get a good understanding on how people walks with a stick those who need them.



First impression if you ask yourself to take a picture with a stick? Its unusual, isn’t it!



The stick itself is 1800 cm long. I guess you figured my height as well!


Casual walking with the stick. It felt like I’m the queen in my own world. In fact, it creates an impression that this girl is a bold one, not shy about doing things in public.


This clip shows having trust on something does makes you stronger then ever. But a calculated one. Doesn't work when you’re being blinded while trusting. I assume that the stick could bare my weight. So I give it a try. And it worked.


Yeah, you are right. That's the place I live in.



Spinning the stick anti-clockwise. How does it feel? More than satisfactory and eye soothing. Creates a perfect circle while it spins in the air. Guess the reason! Simple, I’m holding the exact middle part of the stick while spinning. I felt good doing it as well.


Measuring the fence using the stick and trying to find some reason behind the height of the fence. Having new thoughts about it that I never bother to have.


A very ordinary picture is yet very meaningful. I and the stick is positioned precisely like the symbol of PLUS. In this picture I was pointing upside down to the road I was on. And the stick was pointing to another route. Isn’t it beautiful? For me it's a definite yes.


No matter how hard I was trying to be straight like the stick, guess what I happily failed. Confusing right? I was happy that I’m not a stick.


Balancing something is pretty important for someone whether it's in practical life or someone's imagination. It felt well when truly do it.


Another stage of balancing is done with the right measurement, passion, and patience.


It's an illusion. Don't get confused with the stick with a tree. A perfect example that can define both calculations of theories and real-life incidence.



My favorite! Which explains ways the path of accomplishing something similar in many different ways. Truly amazing when we do understand its urgency. One point can be looked at from many different directions.

  The RSVP Cycle:Creative Processes in the Human Environment  By Lawrence Halprin  My understanding from this reading:  •The RSVP Cycles: Creative Processes in the Human Environment by Lawrence Halprin explores scoring as a way to make processes visible and enable participation.   •The RSVP score makes elements of the creative process visible and seeks to aid communication within artistic collaborations.   •Scores are symbolizations of processes that extend over time, and they are used in various fields of human endeavor, such as dance and theater.   •The book explores street scores, ecological scoring, city scores, and community scores, focusing on the importance of scoring in understanding creative processes and enabling participation.  •The author concludes that the two RSVP cycles are necessary to encompass all human and creative processes.   •The inner cycle is the separate self, while the outer cycle is the colle...

_thinkMake Week-03:reading -02 ( Space is always political)

 Space is always political Melanie Dodd   The idea that "architecture is always political" by Richard Rogers was important during times of housing crises, social displacement, and gentrification. A group called Architecture for Social Housing (ASH) held a protest in 2015 that called for social inequality to be addressed in the built environment and criticized the politics of architecture. People usually think of architecture and spatial practice as being connected to money. But this chapter looks at how spatial activism, short-term interventions, and socially engaged approaches can change social and political outcomes. This chapter talks about how politics shape both space and politics.   The process of redesigning public parks in a city is one example of this. There may be different ideas among interest groups about how the space should be used and organized. This could lead to disagreements, and everyone will need to work together to find a solution. This polit...
