P2 process work/ 100 Images

my 10 categories are:
1. dresses
2. Pillows
3. Name of car
4. Phone screens
5. Chocolate
6. Earings
7. Flipflop
8. Hand cream
9. Handbags
10. Purses

I chose these based on what i saw, and put in what i thought a lifestyle really meant. i know a lifestyle doesn't define us. it is not who we are, it is what we put on us, like a mask or a dress. our lifestyles get affected by what is around us, like people, circumstances, and living status's.

Here are the categories:



i mind mapped the other five categories according to what i wanted to work on. i wanted to keep the 5 categories more related to me and what i like doing, but still thought of. i redid my 100 pieces, because my first ones weren't successful at all. so i had to redo all 100 of them cuz they had to sequence or relationship to one another.

P2.1 Process/b



This is what I've been working on so far for Monday's homework (system).
I'm confused about something concerning the "Dimensions" which is Belief and General.
The way I designed my system is I listed the Gender, Age, Culture, and Profession. I felt there is no need to use images to represent them.
The first category I mapped out is the Necessities, which is food, clothes, etc. Then I mapped out the Value of the Necessities, and put them in order, which is food, water, and clothes. And I continued to Function, and got stuck when it came to Belief and General.

I'm unsure if I'm on the right track, I'm doing this the way I understand it, but I need some feedback.

P2.1 Process/b

Fatma J, P2.1 Process/b

The way i thought about the 5 lifestyles is: 

different people but same personality choosing different things but they all have the same color.
"Color Personality"

But, after we talked more about it and when i saw how the other had done their lifestyle, i realized that i have shifted a little bit from the track!
but this is what i did in terms of my thinking:
 

those are different things from different people, not necessarily having the same style, but they all have the same personality and some common element about how they live their lives.


The color black Dignified and impressive without being showy, people who wear black want to give the appearance of mystery, but their preference may also indicate a suppression of desires and worldly aims, suggesting hidden depths and inner longings.




Blue: Soft, soothing, compassionate and caring, Blue is the color of deliberation and introspection, conservatism and duty. Patient, persevering, conscientious, sensitive and self-controlled, Blues like to be admired for their steady character and wisdom. They are faithful, but are often worriers with somewhat inflexible beliefs and can be too cautious, and suspicious of flamboyant behavior.



Brown: A Brown person has stamina and patience, tending to be very solid and substantial, conscientious, dependable, steady and conservative. Browns are not impulsive, and may be inarticulate and tactless but they love responsibility and are reliable and kindly. If you chose Brown, watch out for a tendency to be obstinate and inflexible.


Pink: This color embodies the gentler qualities of Red, symbolizing love and affection without passion. Women who prefer Pink tend to be maternal. Pink desires protection, special treatment and a sheltered life. Pink people require affection and like to feel loved and secure, perhaps wanting to appear delicate and fragile. Pink people tend to be charming and gentle, if a trifle indefinite.


Red: The color of strength, health, and vitality, Red is often the color chosen by someone outgoing, aggressive, vigorous and impulsive—or someone who would like to be! It goes with an ambitious nature but those who choose it can be abrupt at times, determined to get all they can out of life, quick to judge people and take sides. Red people are usually optimistic and can’t stand monotony; they are rather restless and not at all introspective, so they may be unaware of their own shortcomings. They find it hard to be objective and may blame others for any mishaps. Quiet people with a preference for red may feel the need for the warmth, strength and life-giving qualities of the color, or they blanket their true feelings under a sober exterior. Red is usually chosen by people with open and uncomplicated natures, with a zest for life.



Yellow: The color of happiness, wisdom and imagination, Yellow is chosen by the mentally adventurous, searching for novelty and self-fulfillment. Yellow usually goes with a sunny and shrewd personality, with a good business head and a strong sense of humor. It is the color of intellectuality and all things to do with the mind. Yellow folks are usually clear and precise thinkers who have a good opinion of their own mental capacities and who have lofty ideals. They may at times tend to shun responsibility, preferring freedom of thought and action.



# if i were to stay with the images i picked and the way i thought about the all lifestyles, i have to name the lifestyle itself. For example, i can name the black "Mysterious life style" however, if i did name them, can i do the expanding of the lifestyle what we are asked to do as the next step? 


i am not sure whether to continue this path, or go back to the way everybody is doing!

though i like it this way! but i need to make sure of my position right now before it's too late!
