How have “thinking wrong” and confronting your heuristic biases impacted your process of exploration thus far?

First of all, i don’t completely agree with “Thinking Wrong” and heuristic biases impacted my process of exploration. Anything has two sides. Analytical thinking wrong and heuristic biases should from different aspects. First of all, if i have a specific goal and specific deadline, these two factors appear will have adverse impact on my design process. For example, when i design something for client, have thinking wrong and heuristic biases will be farther away from the intended purpose, thus cause losses the interests of the customers, also will influence out design process and design ideas. When this situation happens, i will feel restless and everything out of control, finally more and more difficult to achieve the purpose. Due to thinking wrong and heuristic biases will make the whole design process restless, and won’t expected the perfect outcome. Another point is when i realized thinking wrong happens, to correct them as soon as possible is also a process to make myself improvement. This process is like planting trees, if you want the tree grow straight, you need to cut the oblique branches during the growing process. But for heuristic biases, i have another view, i think this may be an expression of personal style. Sometime, i will allow myself to thinking wrong, but this situation only occurs in the fixed project deadline. I think the Thinking Wrong process similarities to the week’s mind mapping, even though start for different reasons. Mind map is the purpose of exercise of thinking, thinking wrong is unexpected or most people want to avoided. When i encounter this situation, i didn’t immediately stop it, but collected these thinking wrong thoughts, perhaps in the future design process, these can bring me some inspiration.

Successful graphic designer can capture the details of life, gain experience and skilled. Creation is most important aspect in graphic design, it is able to breathe new life into graphic design works and bring a unique perspective to the viewers. The creation of graphic designer need to sentiment the life details, then seize the inspiration to assist the design process. As graphic design student, can seize the flash bright spot in my brain, recorded different things in my life, accumulate and store them, and this is accumulation and enrich my creative space.
In this week learning process, i understand the daily life had huge influence to design area, our world is not lack of beauty, but lack of observation of beautiful eyes. The second thing is, i got so many inspirations from classmates’ comments, there are a thousand Hamlets in a thousand people’s eyes, everyone has their own explain about metaphor  things showed in the video. Actually, i really did found so many metaphor in that video, but through their , i can understand how they  look at the problem and what’s in their mind, so this week are enrichment.

Depends on my design experience in the past and GRDS 701 teaching methods, i feel a mature design comes form life, but different from the life, which  requires the designers to have a good design method. However, many designers lack of this design method. In the exercise of this class gives me a great inspiration, through three practices and exchange ideas with partner makes me feel design ideas can be constantly refreshed and there are variety of design possibility came from one word. Ordinary people only have the basic logical thinking, but this is not enough for a designer. For a design artwork, it requires a steady stream of design inspiration, seeking for changes; which requires designers must have a good imagination, association ability, the ability of innovate. Therefor, the role of divergent thinking is prominent.

Under the background of globalization, western science and technology and a variety of cultural forms are influx of out lives. For graphic design, a various of design layout and different design style show in front of us, they affect Chinese graphic designer developing direction. As a SCAD graphic design student, i will i could connect my Chinese background and the understanding of western design to make a further way. Graphic design in all the areas of life, no matter packaging, newspaper, magazines, publishing, billboards and so on; almost all the existing products have a graphic design needs. Graphic design is very important part in art area, it is one of the most intuitive visual communication. the late 1950, in Switzerland and Germany, had formations of a new design style; this design style is clear and concise, but it monotonous. Due to design towards international route development, works also integrated into a variety of design styles.
