Designing Product Gestalt: Semiotic and semantic influences of ablution development

Product gestalt is a way of thought explaining how the designer's brain perceives design in its immediate development process and environment. Any endeavor to create product gestalt requires aesthetic, technical, including the chasm and fuzzy design approach. This paper thus attempts to provide a usable direction to researcher discuss fundamental demands on structuring a new concept with the design principles and monitoring used for concept resolution strategy. The organization of design gestalt is based on the correlated ablution sub-function with semantic and semiotic representation. It is a principle in exploring several concept developments with possible configurations of ablution prototypes.

Flower Bouquet

When we started working with flower shapes, we realized we could work with Gestalt\u27s principles of closure, continuation, and proximity. Starting with the concept of a flower vase this demonstrates Gestalt\u27s principle of proximity. Starting with the concept of a flower vase this demonstrates Gestalt\u27s principle of proximity. People group things together when they are close to each other and a flower bouquet is the perfect example of this. The second principle you see in our work is continuation. Continuation is the way our minds sees segments of a line as a continuous line. This is most commonly demonstrated in plaid where we see the lines of a color as one line. In our project this is used on the various flowers such as a circle on the orange flower, and the black and white fabric on the golden flower.https://digitalcommons.liberty.edu/theoryinaction_projects2020/1003/thumbnail.jp

USE OF SPECIFIC TYPES OF CONCEPTUAL ANALYSIS TO STUDY ‘OLD’ CULTURAL CONCEPTS

The article focuses on studying concepts by means of the gestalt analysis that contributes to distinguishing implicit features of the concept. Research works in the field of ancient (so-called ‘dead’) languages are unlikely to be carried out in terms of a complete conceptual analysis, as, for instance, it is impossible to perform an associative experiment. Thus, the gestalt analysis is of paramount importance in defining the structure of such concepts.Purpose. To apply the gestalt analysis to studying Old English cultural concepts as it might provide profound understanding of the way the Anglo-Saxons perceived complex phenomena.Methodology and research methods. To carry out the research, the gestalt analysis was used as the main method for the purposes of the study. In addition, the textual analysis as well as the contrastive one were used.The results of the study. Upon carrying out the research, the author identified a number of implicit features that form the inner structure of the concept under study.Practical implications. The results of the work can be used in History of English, Cognitive Linguistics, Linguistic and Cultural Studies, as well as other academic courses that include teaching the interrelation between language and culture

The adolescent substance abuser

Recent research into the adolescent substance abuser has been motivated by the recognition that the successful rehabilitation of such persons may depend on the development of a positive self-concept. Literature dealing with the Gestalt Therapy, the Adolescent; Chemical Dependency, Addiction and Substance Abuse have been discussed. The various stages and elements of social development of the adolescent were discussed in order to determine whether there exists a correlation between a dysfunctional family life or “unfinished business” and the cause of substance abuse. The interviews conducted with thirteen (13) respondents, who were referred by the court and/or educational institutions, indicate that there is a definite connection between the poor self-concept of the adolescent substance abuser (based on previous traumatic experiences) and substance abuse. The research indicates that the majority of these adolescents choose to abuse substances for comfort – to compensate for the fragmentation in their lives. In accordance with the Gestalt Therapy which advocates an integration of the various elements of the self – a holistic view - the researcher found that it was possible to treat the addiction successfully if the adolescent could deal with the “unfinished business” in his/her past. Consequently, the final Chapter of this study sets out guidelines of the development of a therapeutic programme founded on principles of the Gestalt Therapy.Dr. E. Oliphant Dr. W.J.H. Roestenbur

Side Effects Of Self-Referential Discussion: The Impact And Interaction Of Deductive And Inductive Routes Of Identity

Studies of group communication and group identity rest on two competing theoretical concepts of the group, one that prioritizes examining the relationships between members and one that examines the group as a gestalt construct. For live groups, it is not always clear which style, individual or gestalt, is most appropriate or provides more insight into any specific group because groups’ identities and communication behaviors are sometimes explicable by both theoretical concepts. This occurs because in real-world groups the formation process typically involves an amalgamation of both influences. In other words, live groups form identities built around both members’ individual traits and categorical commonalities among members. When group formation occurs, it is not always clear which theoretical concept should guide the analysis because when both identity formation styles occur together, research currently lacks a way to determine which has more influence on the resulting group. The present study brings our theoretical understanding of group formation closer to groups in a live context. It does so by forming groups under conditions that provide opportunities to foster both formation styles and measuring members’ perception of gestalt or individually focal group identity. Results indicate that members tended to perceive a greater degree of gestalt identity, but not to the exclusion of individual identity

Husserl et Stumpf sur la Gestalt et la fusion

Dans la seconde édition des Logische Untersuchungen, Husserl affirme avoir investigué le premier, dans l’école de Brentano, les objets d’ordre supérieur et les qualités de forme. En effet, on retrouve dans Philosophie der Arithmetik une discussion des moments figuraux et de la fusion qui pourrait donner un certain appui à une telle affirmation. En considérant les concepts de Gestalt et de fusion dans leur contexte historique — particulièrement en relation à Stumpf en ce qui concerne ce dernier concept — nous constatons que Husserl a effectivement une conception plutôt originale et intéressante de ces phénomènes d’ordre supérieur.In the second edition of the Logische Untersuchungen Husserl claims to have investigated higher order objects and Gestalt qualities before anyone else in the School of Brentano. Indeed, in the Philosophie der Arithmetik we find a discussion of figural moments and fusion that could lend some support to such a claim. By considering the concepts of Gestalt and Verschmelzung in their relevant historical context, the latter especially in connection to Stumpf, we find that Husserl indeed gave a quite original and interesting account of such higher order phenomena

Simon’s scissors and ecological psychology in design for behaviour change

Copyright @ 2012 Social Science Electronic PublishingThis paper introduces a series of working papers (Lockton 2011a,b and 2012a-f) providing a background literature review of different disciplinary perspectives on behaviour, informing the development of the Design with Intent toolkit (Lockton, Harrison and Stanton 2010a,b). In the first section of the paper, Herbert Simon's 'scissors' metaphor, and the relationship between context, cognition and behaviour are discussed, while the remaining sections introduce some ecological psychology perspectives relevant to design for behaviour change, including Barker's behaviour settings, ecological interface design and Gestalt psychology principles
