Juxtaposition

Juxtaposition means the compare or contrast between two variables which have some similarities or connections  side by side. They can be situation, theme, object or text. Juxtaposition can let people generate idea or understand a things better by compare them with other things. There is another type of juxtaposition which is random juxtaposition. Random juxtaposition is randomly selecting two variables to be compared or contrasted. Random juxtaposition can help us to think creatively because we can think many possibilities when we try to think of a connection between two totally different things. These are what I have understand from the class.

Class Exercise

The picture below is a game that help us to think out of box. I choose three random words from the mind map given by the lecturer and start to think of the usage of mortar and pestle.

Associated MInd Map

Associated mind map is a mind map that form by random words which have little connection to the previous word. Associated mind map help us to think out of box. This is very good for generating creative idea. It is easy to do associated mind map because we just need to think a word that have connection to the previous word. The title acts as a start point for us to generate our idea. This is my point of view for the associated mind map lesson.
