Poets Creed Reading Notes
-Looking at the rhythm of language – all language can be looked at as a metaphor- as a symbol – as a representation of reality (reminds me of Semiotics)
-What is metaphor’s use in design? – Allows for audience interpretation/ can also create a particular idea or suggestion
-One is honest as an artist when you are being true to the imagination- (Borges)
-Idea: Beauty is timeless, forever endeared. – There is a relationship invested between the feeling and the actual form of something- feeling and form help to shape audience perception, as well as the meaning/ significance of a particular design.
The World on Stage Reading Notes
-All that is on the stage is a sign- Theater and performance can be viewed from a semiotic perspective- everything on stage becomes a self contained illusion outside of reality, that can conceptually refer to the world in either a literal or abstract method
- New word: phenomenological ☺
- Art/ Theater perceived as an act of removing things from a world in which they have become inconspicuous and then seeing them anew
- Objects always carry their worldly meaning with them- which makes us as theater practitioners ask how do we instill/ develop/create new meaning and what is its significance in different contexts
- Phenomenological philosophy is a continual de-symbolization of the word
-When looking at a signs: is it repeated? How and why? What is the sensory experience created by this sign and the relationship it shares to other signs? What is the difference between sign and image- what it the relationship between the physical image and it’s intended objective? How is meaning revealed in the sign? What limitations are imposed on the sign or object?
- An efficient sign is a recognizable sign
