    Mid-term blog post "Visual"

    by
     On this blog I will focus on word "visual". Visual means appearancce. When do people consider vidual the most? I assume that is first time you see something. Visual of people, vidual of paint, visual of design etc. In Japan, there is a genre of pop music called "visual kei" and of course they are musicians but their vidual is actually more considered by audience. Please take a look at this picture.

    Their cloths are very unique and even guys wear make up.If you are interested to their fasion and makeup, please watch blog of  Hikaru-Setsuna I am not arguing about people's perspecting at all. I think music is borderless to people to enjoy. However, It is kinda interesting that vidual could be combines with music style. it shows how much we believe what we see than actual self. It is obvious that their vidual taking their huge part of their performance
    Please take a look at this youtube video, it may help you to understand the connection of their vidual and music...




    First, If you like this band, please visit  their official blog.
     I have a opinion and question by researching them... My opinion is their vidual is what they can not express if it is only music... I have a friend who loves one of "visual kei band" and she always says " I like them just because they are cool, good looking, and famous. Because they express what they are without hesitating. I feel im released when im screaming at their live performance. " Do you agree with her idea?  I agree with her because "visual kei" people are clearly being different from another people. And since they are even more famous in foreign countries, their vidual is going abrouad and inspiring world widely. Vidual affects people. I put this as a good way but I know there are people who doesn't like their visual so it really doesnt have answer. what is your favorite kind of vidual?



    Well, lets think about how I choose my cloths everyday
    When I wear cloths, i tend to wear flower prints when I want to feel nature and feel happy. I wear something flower print everyday...
    I tend to follow fasion color of each seasons too... I do not know why. This fall, fasion color is wine-red. That is what the magazine that i read says.... I love colorful color, not old lady one like wine-red... But If I go to store and see alot of wine-red products, It started look pretty cool.....Fasion(=visual only) is changing momentalily. If you take a look at a blog of New York fashion... You can tell how much fashion changes.

    so...what vidual does to my brain?

    Oh wait, maybe part of the reason why people like "vidual kei" is they keep their style and not follow fasion? well, now my opinions are

    1. Vidual effects first impression
    2. Vidual represents your perspective
    3.Vidual could be used for business such as fasion,


    But you know... where is the truth?
    I think it is only in yourself no matter what...
    Visual is the very strong tool to express yourself and even able to communicate with others.
    Well, now Im  excuited to do ds106 assignments!

    I hope my blog gets all of requirements. I simply enjoyed from middle of the way of writing this blog...

    Thank you,
