Our Design = Our Intention

When I watch the Ted talk by William Mcdonough, the quote "the fundamental issue is that for me design is the first signal of human intention" strongly grabbed my attention.
I sturdily believe this quote is a fact. No one will design and create anything that does not have any meaning to it.
In William Mcdonough's Ted talk , he said that the design of the toy duck has some problems. Usually, people do not see anything wrong with the duck; however, you will notice the problem when you look more carefully.
This duck is suppose to be safe because it is a toy for children, but on the back of the duck, it said " the product contain chemicals known by the state of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproduction harm". After seeing this, a question popped up in my mind: What is the intention of this design? Was the toy duck made for gaining profit or for the good of children?
Now, tie "Design's intention" to "Ecology of commerce" we read. In the reading, it talks about how business affect the world from many things. When I read the reading, the first thing that popped out from my mind was credit card. The invention of credit card seem harmless but it is actually harmful. Credit cards can cause financial crises.
Relate to what we've learned in English class "Things that make us feel safe is the thing that give us control". I think that the true intention of credit card is to take money away from people. Credit cards make people buy things without considering the price, which is a bad buying habit. People receive bills later, but a lot of people could not afford the bills, therefore the bills becomes huge debts. From the example, I think our intention for designing things is getting worse and worse and I believe the consequences will affect everyone, including the people who design the product.
The impact corporations can bring is huge. I think that organization, group, and corporation should design things with good intention and be ethically responsible for the design they make. Only good intention can make our society and environment better.

Waste not and Senior project

In waste not, the author discuss about issue of US being wasteful. United State is a developed country and is a model that many developing countries look up to. However, US did not do a good job of being a good model because life style in US makes a bad model for developing countries. There is one section in Waste not that I have the most impression is the “How much waste is there”. This section talk about statistic of how much US waste is and show how bad the pollution in US is. Although, the statistic did not tell any moral, it makes me feel we are living in a trashcan and with a lot of illness caused by us.
For four weeks, I have interned at Agnitio as a quality tester. My responsibility is to keep the quality of product stay in a certain level and make sure the product work. What I can learn from working as a quality tester, I can learn how the detecting process work and different ways of detecting things.
From motivation of the waste not, Senior project, and Angus’ presentation. I realized that my internship is connected with the reading in the sense that it is about protecting the Environment around us. From Angus’ presentation I feel that we still have a chance to rescue the world and we can do it. For me my method of rescue the world is by investigate what cause our body sick in this polluted environment.

Thoughts and Inquiry question
How does air pollution affect our body
How does air pollution affect our body? This can answer from the reason I chose biochemistry for internship. I choose science because I want to save this environment and help this community become a better place.
I want to investigate how does air pollution affect our body because in this industrialized environment we often forget the negative side of chemical exhaustion but only know the convenience of it. Recent years, we can hear many news about having bizarre sickness and found out that it is cause by pollutions. From the Cadmium polluted rice to green oyster, Every case is another step toward hell.
I want to find out how does air pollution affect our body and educate the community the right knowledge so we can all b aware of our environment.

"Science" Park ? Taiwan?
"Science" park? it's really "science" or it's industrialization park?
From the reading, I can see the disastrous humanity of most Taiwanese people. I believe the case in reading is just a small edge of a big problem.
Often, I have the same thought as the reading (The Silence of Silicon Lambs). However, I do not want to focus on only science park but the whole Taiwan. Since US and Europe countries were industrialized, Taiwanese trying hard to push Taiwan's economy and wanting Taiwan become a developed country. Oppositely, we pushed and saved the wrong way. Media, government, and governors try to cover the negative fact. Therefore, it caused many corporation doing underground illegal activities. In recent years' news I found out that these cases are NOT just happening in Science park but also polices and education.
In Taiwanese education, many things in textbooks are not really doing the duty of education. Taiwanese education are focus more on test, job, future. Often, they ask to memorize the isolated information in textbook and not think about the saving environment or helping the community. The only people who were concern about our environment were only researchers or scholars. Economy of the Taiwan may seem important but avoiding the truth cannot make this country's education improve because it loses the point of education.
In Taiwanese politics, It is wrong that politician use "helping economy" this excuse to mess Taiwanese's mind. Media are like amplifier, it makes the things become more crucial and more well known. However, most of politician in Taiwan knew the affect of media. Therefore, they started underground activity and started to pointing finger to other politicians. Nevertheless, most of them were actually taking the advantage of making money and getting more support but not improving the environment.
In conclusion, this modern and convenient world, things looks harmless but in fact they are hiding the inconveniences in the future.

the end of the Cat's cradle

I personally think the end was pretty straight forward. At the end everyone died and the world sounds like it ended. Kurt Vonnegut wait till this moment showing the whole idea. At last he describe the book name cat's cradle. He satire the humanity of this society. I think he just criticized the region and the humanity. From my perspective of what he trying to do was to tell that cat's cradle is similar to life. From previous pages He is trying to tell the reader that Cat's cradle is a fun looking string game that means nothing and telling that the religion today is phony.

8th grade exhibition presentation
Today is a important day because I am going to present in front of whole school. I am a person who is excited to present but I felt really stressed and nervous that I am going to face all those people.The reason of that is When ever I get nervous my brain will get froze up. The consequence of that are I cannot talk properly, I will lose my point easily.
After I went to school I felt so nervous and so excited that I can heard my heart beating, pumping and hand trembling with sweat. Feel the heat from my body. The all school gathering is in the morning at eight and it is 10 minute from now. When I settle my things down and put my stuff in locker, I immediately run up to fifth floor and set my mac and be ready.
When people are coming up I was reviewing my material for the presentation and see if I lose something. Until everyone come up and sit in the circle, my heart beat pump faster than before now and I start shaking my foot. I see my self shrinking and the face of the people become more devious. Whenever people look at me and ask if I am nervous I will reply I was excited. I believe I was excited although people say I look calm.
After Mr.Loken announce, It is the time to show. First person going on was Daniel Wu. I want to thank him a lot because he make me be the second one to go on. When Daniel comes off, I went up. I feel like to pass out so I was holding the table all the time. Suddenly, when I was going to speak, I forgot everything. I do not know what to say so I squeeze my brain and trying to have a description that could tell the audience and get rit of it fast. Eventually, I read the whole presentation and add what I thought. finally I finish the presentation
It is a stressful process to got through. After school gather Everyone said that my presentation was funny, great, and alive. Those words had made my day.
