JUXTAPOSITION
Let's have a simple tour go through the meaning of Juxtaposition and Random Juxtaposition!
What is Juxtaposition?
"Juxtaposition can be defined as placing two variables, side by side and their contrast or similarities are shown through comparison. Many creative processes rely on juxtaposition. By juxtaposing two objects or words next to each other, human brain will automatically associate or transfer meaning. Usually 'turning' something familiar to something less familar or vice-versa."
- Juxtaposition (literary), synonymous with contrast, two objects or texts that oppose one another.
- Random juxtaposition, two random objects moving in parallel, a technique intended to stimulate creativity.
------cited from lecturer notes
What is Random Juxtaposition?
Random Juxtaposition refers to the stimulation of creativity in problem solving, design or other creative pursuit by confronting two unrelated concepts or objects, usually the goal or problem to be solved on the one hand and a randomly selected object or concept on the other. Similar to an oxymoron.

Class Reflection
The person who mainly using left brain are very sensitive in numerical and mathemathic,they are logical thinking and very potential to become the leader of society . However the person who mainly using right brain are creative and they are also a day dreamer. They are potential in music and art. I am the second once.
The table above shows the function of our left brain and right brain.
After finished this activity,Lecturer was take out the mortal and pestie from his bag and ask us to tried and think for the creative usages for mortal and pestie.(* mortal and pestle: an Malay traditional utensil use to crush and grind spices.) For example in year of 20100, woman were used the mortal and pestie as accessories. Mortal as their cap and the pestie as their earing.He also ask us to do the mind mapping about mortal and pestie in class. Below is my mind mapping which i had did while in class.
After choosing five words, we start thinking about another functions of mortal and pestle in the future besides using them as a mortal and pestle according to the words we choose. The image above is mine result after thinking process. The three words choosen is Great Wall, Game, Accessories,Power and School.
It is an interesting and useful thinking process. By doing in this way, we can think out of the box and avoid ourselve being limited by our logic.
