Observe People In Party
Music plays a big role in a successful party.
Meet people is the main reason why people attend a party.
A bad party song list which is not liked by guests may ruin a party's atmosphere. Therefore, create a party song list is every party host's prior issue.
Sometimes making new friends isn't that easy when we don't have issue to chat. People tend to show their own taste of lifestyle in parties.

Pesist Workout to Success
Target Audience Emotion
Muscle growth doesn't happen in a short time after working out once or a week, it takes months of process.
Psychology "Theory of planned behavior" shows that the more resource a person get, the more opportunities he will take action to do things.
People often get lazy or busy getting to workout, then nd excuses or persuade oneself for a day rest. Therefore, the biggest problem they confront is to persist on working out.
To keep college students persisting on working out, increase their motivation and help them with their workout tasks is the way I aimed at.
Concept Phase 5 A personal helper give you advice and aid on your whole workout process, which makes you enjoy working out and feel no worries on every phase on the process.

TURN GARBAGE INTO SEXINESS Combine Taiwan traditional lacquer craft with plastic commodities in Taiwan. In order to show people how lacquer craft can be appreciate by people, issue of plastic waste as well.
When light glows in dark, people start to see things what we made, what we appreciate. And that is culture, wisdom, idea and beauty.
PLASTIC WASTE ISSUE Things we should be aware of Over the last ten years we have produced more plastic than during the whole of the last century
50 percent of the plastic we use, we use just once and throw away.
We currently recover only ve percent of the plastics we produce.
It takes 500-1,000 years for plastic to degrade.
Billions of pounds of plastic can be found in swirling convergences in the oceans making up about 40 percent of the world’s ocean surfaces. 80 percent of pollution enters the ocean from the land. Over the last ten years we have produced more plastic than during the whole of the last century
One million sea birds and 100,000 marine mammals are killed annually from plastic in our oceans.
Spread the word. Talk to your family and friends about why it is important to reduce plastic in our lives and the nasty impacts of plastic pollution.
Volunteer at a beach cleanup. Surfrider Foundation Chapters often hold cleanups monthly or more frequently.
RISE ABOVE PLASTIC
Bring your to-go mug with you to the coffee shop, smoothie shop or restaurants that let you use them, which is a great way to reduce lids, plastic cups and/or plastic- lined cups.
Things we can do
Choose to reuse when it comes to shopping bags and bottled water. Cloth bags and metal or glass reusable bottles are available locally at great prices.
Reduce everyday plastics such as sandwich bags and juice cartons by replacing them with a reusable lunch bag/box that includes a thermos.
WHAT I CHOSE TO DO LACQUER
Traditional Taiwanese artcraft
Lacquer is an traditional Taiwanese art craft which is not as vigorous as its summit period before. However, it is an delicate art craft which take time to learn and produce. Therefore, advocate this declined art craft is an important part to revive the lacquer art craft, also important for us to inherit this beautiful art craft.
I learned lacquer from a master called Gee Hong Lee. Lacquer is a kind of liquid from trees in nature, after purified we can apply them on materials like wood, bamboo anything which has rough surface.
With lacquer on it, things become durable, heatproof and resistant from acidbase. Last but not least, it become beautiful. Therefore, I decided to change plastic itself to a lacquer product.
FORM FOLLOW NATION T
WS
Color, shape, material Token, emotion, usability A nation own its feature About people, about culture
Recycle work I collected plastic container manufactured in today's world, divided them into pieces to create my testing model.
RECYCLING & MODELLING Plastic containers These are the containers only appears in country I live in, Taiwan. I tested them by combining them in propotion, dividing them into pieces, finding a special appearance to present classical style and feeling.
Lighting model Try out different posibilities, includind color, structure, combination, material and shape as well.
1
Sandblasting
When surface is rough, lacquer is able to attach on it. Therefore, we have to roughened the plastic basin.
2
Painted
Paint lacquer gently on the surface horizontally and vertically. Then it will blend into a nice flat surface.
3
Dessicated
Lacquer is more tend to be dry in warm and humid environment, and it takes about 1~2 days for a layer of lacquer to dry.
LACQUER PROCESS
4
Thickened
The more layer we get on our container, the more protective and color fullness will present. Normally, we paint 1~2 layers of pure lacquer, 5~7 layers of color lacquer.
5
Grind
Finish the painting, we put the dry lacquer in water for grinding. Use 2000 grit number sand paper grind until the surface is flat.
6
Leaf Gilding
Leaf gilding is a art craft skill use in lacquer. We put gold foil on wet lacquer surface then brush it flat. Beautiful patterns then perform on lacquer containers.
METAL PROCESS
Metal Spinning For shape continous, I chose metal to combine with lacquer. Metal presents gorgerous and contemporary style so I tried to combine different things together. Metal spinning is an normal metal processing for round surface. By spinning flat metal piece on the turner, metal piece is heated and become deformable. Then attached on metal mold will it be shaped to a new appearance.
VALUE Do you notice the insect inside the lacquer lighting? This is a scene I captured in the exibition. In the meantime, there are also other lighting on the spot but only do insects visit this lighting. On top of that, we have to recall what it is made of. Originally, plastic basins don't attract insects. However, the traditional art craft lacquer made it happen.
Finally, garbage become sexy. From appearance, smell and essence Of course, from idea as well
