Part 1;
Go out and find an example of each type of analogy.
Post these on your Blog.
- Logical Analogies: Design, Function, Phenomena
- Psychological Analogies: Sensory, Empathy, Symbolic/Metaphor, Fantasy.


Logical Analogies



The Beaver is a furry animal with a wide, flat tail that looks like a paddle.
And they uses it's flat tail to manipulate it's control of directions.
Which humans uses this concept to use. Like a Plane, Ship/boat.

Even though, the time has changed and upgraded itself but the ship/boat would always use this concept of a beaver tail to control it's direction.


Psychological Analogy
Fantasy.

As you can see in this picture, it is a unicorn which doesn't exist in reality nor is it realistic.

But many people choose to believe it exist in a fairy world. And it creates a mystery feeling.

A unicorn is imagined and designed to be a fantasy. It is known to be able to cast and control magical powers in it's horn located on top of it's forehead. And although it doesn't have wing but it's known to be able to fly.

There are many versions of a unicorn, which no one knows which is the original as it is made-believe. There are unicorns with wings like a angel or some without. And so it all depends on our believe and imagination.(Colours used are dreamy and fantasy)

Part 2;

Try out the Synectics 3R cycle, and create six of your own visual analogs from the two main analogy categories (Logical and Psychological), using any combinations of the Synectics Triggers. Try using a series of transformations within one analogy to transform an image further.
Bonus: Try organising, or arranging the elements into a Matrix format.
Illustrate these analogies into your Mistake Journal.

Part 3;

Get familiar with your own creative processes, and do a preliminary map of your creative process on paper. It may help you to refer to an actual project to map it out (perhaps from any of the CF Studio modules).

Part 4;

And Finally: Blog about what you learned from this lecture, on the overview of creative processes, Synectics and Analogies, as well as your quest for analogies. What did you learn from your Mind/Body Map? Can you begin to map out your creative process and see what works and doesn't work for you?
