University to make children?

"Children's University" signboard、Seen at the university's architecture department building。For a moment I felt like, “Huh?”。With the declining birthrate, will we finally start studying architecture departments and research on fertilization and pregnancy disorders? If you rub your eyes and read carefully, you will find “Children’s Manufacturing University”。I was a little surprised by the confusing signboard.。

This seems to be one of the things I would like to do instead of lifelong learning courses.。Regardless of the purpose、I gave up and set off without a methodology or outlook.、It looks like things will start out with the usual pattern of passing the blame for increased production losses down the line.。It's like they're trying to keep children in a kind of circle.、In that case, it might be safer to start with a ``child-making university.''。

Compared to the difference in academic ability up to the age of 18 at the time of admission,、18I think the possibility is much greater from the age。However, in Japan, there is an 18-year-old difference in academic ability.、In a sense, we are separated by a difference that can never be taken back.。Once you quit your job, you immediately fall to the bottom of society.、Japanese society can't get out of its way by doing very little.。“Never give up and try again and again” is a loud slogan both at school and in society.、There is no serious effort to create systems and policies that will make this possible.。just cut it out。Seeing people only as a cost。about how much power people have、It's like I've lost my imagination。

That's why it becomes a third-rate university.、Students don't want to come because they hate that label.。Universities that cannot fill their capacity desperately try to recruit students.。Before you know it, each student becomes more than just a person with “individuality” or “potential.”、No wonder it starts to look like “tuition fees” itself.。

If the university is such that students only see it as a tuition fee.、Leave school quickly、一冊のスケッチブックを持って世界を見学して回る方がよほど有効な「授業料」になるかもしれない「こどももの作り大学」で小学生時分から将来この大学に親しみを持つように刷り込みをするなどなんて浅はかで馬鹿馬鹿しく情けない発想だろう文科省による近年の理科系科目へのこどもの誘導策も同じ次元の発想だこどもは大人ほど馬鹿ではないことを知らない国は亡ぶしか道はない  2011/10/23

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Modern art American

Astronaut F4 2011

I saw the Modern Art American Exhibition at the National Art Center, Tokyo.。From the era of direct imports from Europe、Gradually, American characteristics became stronger.、Eventually, it began to follow its own path, different from Europe.、The process of gaining confidence is laid out in an easy-to-understand manner.。

A female painter named Georgia O'Keeffe (who was also the wife of photographer Alfred Stieglitz)。A close-up of only a part of a flower such as an orchid on a large screen.、It is known for its expressions that can be mistaken for female genitalia for a moment.。The photographic method etc.、In addition to being a top-notch photographer、Ideas from Stieglitz, a hidden genius director of contemporary art、You can't talk about strategy without someone who can see through O'Keeffe's sensibilities.。

There are about three works by O'Keeffe on display.。None of them are very big、About 20 of them、I was particularly fascinated by the work depicting a single dry leaf.。One large whitish leaf in front。Behind it is another reddish brown leaf.。Furthermore, the leaves behind it、I'm just drawing three leaves in total.。Part of the front white leaf、There are dry cracks showing that it is a dead leaf.、I think this is the core of this picture.。The background is also white。The colors are mainly white and brown leaves.、And the simplicity of just the white background、For someone who is one of the standard-bearers of modern art, this is a rather plain painting.。

Maybe they actually had beautiful colored leaves.。Somehow I picked it up and held it in my hand.。Normally, I would throw it away after that.、Even if I try to draw it and take it back, I end up throwing it away without drawing it.。But、long there、A crack caught O'Keeffe's eye.。Something flashed、It became a picture。The leaves are also important、この亀裂が絵の核だというのはそういう意味であるもちろんこれは私の勝手な空想に過ぎないけれど絵というのは往々にそうやって生まれてくるものだからだ

エドワード・ホッパーの絵にも魅かれる男が座っている何でもない光景だしその前にもその後にもたくさんの男も女も座っているのを見ていた筈なのにその時その場所での男がホッパーに突然の閃きをもたらしたのだその男をあえてモデルに雇ったとしても描く気持になったかどうか(制作にあたってモデルを使ったかどうかは関係無い)

クリフォード・スティルこれら世代は異なるがアメリカの絵画はモダン時代の最先端というイメージが強く日本人が真似るとことさら新奇激しさけばけばしさなどを強調するが実際に見ると案外に地味なのであるその発想も自分自身に発していてむしろ謙虚で素朴というモダンアートのイメージと矛盾した言葉さえ浮かぶ日本人はアメリカ絵画の本質をどこかで見誤っているのではないだろうか絵画の本質はレオナルドの時代でも現代でも変わっていないような気がする日本でもアメリカでもそういう大事なことを教えてくれる展覧会かも知れない 2011/10/16

 

May enjoy a long war

カラスウリ F4 水彩 2011

I went to the hospital where my father was admitted for the first time in two months.、I went only for 3 days。

My first impression was that he was a different person who looked a lot like my father.。Two months ago, I had a bandage on my head.、My eyes are also puffy、I almost didn't understand what you were saying.、Still, he was a “sick father.”。This time there were no bandages or swollen eyes.、The person in front of me is not my father.、like a shell、More like a monkey than a human、It's a different person。He looked away, seeming to have little interest in my face.。

2nd day。help my father with lunch。My father can't use his hands or arms well.、It takes an hour to an hour and a half for lunch.。I asked for help with that too.。Almost impossible to eat alone。Even if you put it in your mouth、It's not even easy to swallow。talk to、encouragement、Let me carry the dishes by myself until I almost drop them.、hold a spoon、let them do it on their own as much as possible。Eventually, I became more and more ambitious.、I try to change the tableware even if I can't bring it to my mouth.、Trying to center the contents properly.、I started trying to scrape the things I didn't want to eat from my plate.。

Although my voice is almost gone,、try as hard as one can、I started speaking using many words.。It's a small voice that you can't hear unless you place your ear close to your mouth.、Eventually, I started to string together some meaningful words.、When I agreed with him, he started talking more and more.。I feel like I've finally returned from the monkey world to the human world.。Serious and hardworking type、I started to feel my father's personality.。

When I give you my favorite newspaper、try to read。I'm still not sure if I can read or not.、The eye seems to be following the articles one after another.。The way he sometimes takes the newspaper back is truly impressive.。Maybe something will work out、From this moment on, I started to have hope.。When I yelled the content of the article into his ear (it seems like he couldn't hear anymore)、I nod when I understand (but I feel like most of them don't)。Still, I'm not just nodding along mechanically.、I'm sure I'm nodding my head as a result of an echo somewhere in my brain.。What I don't understand is、Because if you don't understand, you whisper。

Be prepared for a long battle with brain disease.。And even more so if you're older。I don't have any more physical strength。nevertheless、I was convinced that my father would come back to us.。It seemed like I didn't want to eat lunch on the third day.、When I asked, “Isn’t it delicious?”、I immediately replied, "It tastes bad!" as if to throw it away.。I can't hear it well, but、“The texture is also、It doesn't taste good either,'' I understood.。all jelly-like foods、For my father who used to eat first-class seafood on a daily basis, there was no way it would taste good.。i laughed。that was yesterday。  2011/10/11
