MIND MAP (Yorkshire Sculpture Park)



Here is my mind map for Yorkshire Sculpture Park, which I call 'My experience board'. In this I have visualized my personal experience of the park. I have divided it into different categories and shown them through info-graphics( which is also my main project). The whole experience is divided in these 4 categories.The categories are: learning, a day out, adventure, inspiring environment and YSP shop.


MY EXPERIENCE in these categories:
The trip was a study tour, where I saw exhibitions and was a part of the discussion for the mind map. It was an informative and learning experience.




An enjoyable one day outing. The coach journey and friends around was fun. We clicked a lot of photographs and enjoyed coffee and apple pie.






It was an adventurous journey. The weather was difficult to face but at the same time the beautiful scenic view and hiking up and down the hills made it more adventurous. 




The whole environment of YSP was inspiring. The YSP shop had some very exclusive stuff.


Feedback:
Visually satisfying looks like a black board. Well structured

YORKSHIRE SCULPTURE PARK

All of us (MA Graphic Design students) went on a one-day trip to Yorkshire Sculpture Park. The weather this day was very bizarre and not at all corporative. It was sunny at one moment, the next rainy, again sunny, than cloudy and all through that.
This season it was an extensive exhibition of over 200 works by artist 'DAVID NASH'. David Nash is a British sculptor who has worked worldwide with wood, trees and the natural environment.

Again I had so much interesting stuff to talk and show about in todays tutorial. I came across a series of 21 different visual representations of a romantic movie called 'Jules & Jim' onto info graphics. The main psycho-physical features of the three characters and their long and turbulent relationship have been synthesized in a mathematical model enlightening the relationship as a real chaotic system.
I was overwhelmed by the designer's work and appreciate the way he has expressed a relationship. The  mathematical representation  is so different which i haven't seen before.

EASY JULES                                                           
Starting from the analysis of the            From the punctual analysis of the  
 film "Jules et Jim" it emerged               the facts of the film a more model-
that during the plot Jules is the              like representation has been created       
character that never really comes           In this model the nine main phases of 
up with a strong, decisive decision;        the triangle relationship are reported;
he rather prefers to stay calm and         here instead of what showed in the 
watch what happens around him.           analysis, there are no punctual events,
So Jules can be represented                  it is all more like a loop which occurs 
mostly as a straight line, around            several times during the story presented 
which the other main characters             in the film
Jim and Catherine move.The first 
analysis led to two main kinds of 
measure: "happiness", that states 
how much a character can be 
considered be considered happy 
and self-realized at a certain 
point of the story, and "sentimental 
distance" that indicates the actual 
status of the characters
in relation with others. 
PREDICTABLE CATHERINE:
This visualization tries to represent some important feelings that Catherine, 
the protagonist of the film Jules & Jim, experienced with Jim & Jules. 
Friendship, love, anger, missing and physical attractions are measures in some
 key scenes and at the end of the map, based on common "feelings reactions" that 
Catherine has during the sequences, I kind of "model of behavior" shows 
which could be her possible caused by some other similar event.
