Art is something made by human. Even when it is naturally created, the human puts a lot of meaning into it. I think that humans have a basic instinct of seeking the compelling element from most of their experiences. It is the resource of our culture and education of our society.
However, the compelling experience from the art does not happen to us by chance. The artists are good at designing the structure of their forming elements. Depending on how they create their forms, and what kind of forms they choose, the audience’s experience to the arts would be totally different. Also, depending on how much the audience understands and analyses the forms, the arts provide various types of insight.
As we have learned from this semester, each field of art has different types of forms for their forming process. However, no matter what kinds of elements are manipulated, the compelling feeling from the fine arts has something in common: They are all well planned and designed in terms of construction. Whether the forms are emphasized by contrast/compare, dynamics, detailed descriptions and customized expression, they are all nicely placed and properly fit to the artist’s original intent. Thus, they are able to create the compelling experience as a whole and make the audience understand/feel their intent.
I think we can make an analogy of the learning environment with the forming process in art. All the forms which are used in the forming process in art can be represented by all the subject matters in education. Also, the forming process can stand for the learning process. Depending on how the whole structure in it is designed for students, the level of student’s understanding and insight would be affected. The compelling experience in art means the effective and personalized learning experience in education. To provide effective learning environments to students, the well planned and designed structures are indispensible, as we have learned in art. The design is not a term only for art. Designing means filtered, chosen, and refined acting for more compelling experience and indispensible process for both art and education.
My top ten ideas about the Nature and Design of Compelling Experience would be
1. Each field (music, movies, architecture, photography, fashion) has its own forms which are used for their forming process.
2. Depending on the chosen forms and chosen processing way, the result form would be different.
3. The forms and forming process are all chosen by the artists, and the artists use these for expressing his/her intent
4. Depending on how much we understand the forms and the forming process, we can have totally different insight for arts.
5. Arts and education are not different fields. The learning process in education and the forming process in art have something in common.
6. As art, the teaching and learning needs to be designed and formed by chosen forms for more effective and compelling learning/teaching experience.
7. Thus, depending how the teachers choose the forms (the element of subject matter) in their teaching, the nature of the teaching would have a totally different quality.
8. Depending on how much the students understand the teacher’s intent, they can have different insight for their learning.
9. With regard to the fashion, I think that it is very similar with the personalized learning experience. It is not only because all forms are the nature of the personality, but also because both the compelling fashion and learning experience exist only for the subject person, not for everybody else.
10. Finally, I think (as mentioned before) that both art and education needs to be designed and well planned for compelling and effective experience. Without designing, none of them can provide us better/attractive feeling.
