FOR WEEK 4 WE WERE CHALLENGED TO CREATE 5 PICTOGRAMS/SYMBOLS FOR THE 5 STAGES OF OUR LIVES. I CHOSE NOSTALGIC IMAGES FROM MY LIFE PAIRED WITH NOSTALGIC PLAYS ON SONG TITLES TO CREATE EACH STAGE.MY FIRST STAGE FEATURES MY CHILDHOOD PENGUIN STUFFED ANIMAL AND THE SONG, “BITTERSWEET SYMPHONY” BY THE VERVE. MY SECOND FEATURES A CARTOON IMAGE OF THE HOUSE I GREW UP IN, A HOUSE I MOVED OUT OF, CAUSING A REACURING FEAR OF CHANGE IN MY LIFE. THE TITLE IS A LYRIC FROM DAVID BOWIE’S “CHANGES”. MY THIRD IS A SMALL YELLOW UMBRELLA IN THE RAIN, REPRESENTING THE BEGINNING OF MY LOVE OF MUSICALS, BEGINING WOITH THE MOVIE MUSICAL “SINGIN’ IN THE RAIN”. THE FOURTH IS A COLLECTION OF STICK FIGURE SURROUNDED BY MUSIC NOTES, REPRESENTING THE FRIENDS I MADE THROUGH A SHARED PASSION. IT FEATURES THE SONG TITLE “ALL IN” BY THE ARMY, THE NAVY. THE LAST FEATURES A SOCK MONKEY, STANDING AS A SYMBOL OF THIS NEW STAGE IN MY LIFE, THE PEOPLE THAT MEAN THE MOST AND MY GOALS. IT IS TITLED BY DAVID BOWIE’S SONG “HEROES”.
