I saw the video : http://tinyurl.com/2dthj5l Impressionism/Post-Impressionism Lecture
This video describes the differences and sameness between impressionism and post-impressionism. Impressionism is about light and color; impressionists draw paintings with color theory, they put colors on the palette, and mix colors, it's called optical mixing. They draw paintings by learning directly from nature. They draw paintings with vivid colors. The painters paint the subject over and over in order to catch the exact color. And the post-impressionists use impressionist techniques but they want to take the style to a whole new level. They paint with more patience, more expression, and use color to communicate about the world; they were searching a deeper meaning in the art.
In my opinion, I can't tell the differences between impressionism and post-impressionism, because I don't have any art sense. But according to Monet's paintings, he used several colors and mixes them, so the paintings are filled with the variation of colors and light; his paintings make the scenery more colorful. In order to create colorful scenery, the painters use colors to cover the original colors.

My Favorite Art
I saw the pictures on http://tinyurl.com/22tu8jo and http://tinyurl.com/2epptc7
The shadowgraphic is a folk art. The puppets are made from animal skin or paper. The entertainers use light to illuminate on a white screen, and perform a show with music and singing songs. It has the fame of movie ancestors. In the past, movies, TV, etc, those media were not popular; the shadowgraphic was one kind of popular folk entertainments. In Chinese history, the entertainers performed shadowgraphics for soldiers; the soldiers had to fight a war in daytime, so the shadowgraphics were their entertainerment at night.
I have seen the shadowgraphic several times. The entertainers play the puppets carefully; they especially have to cooperate in music and light. But as the media has become popular, the shadowgraphic has been downfallen; people seem to forget this traditional performance art. Nowadays, if we want to see the art, we have to go to the museum.

The Painting
The painting by Laetitia was described a situation of a downtown. I saw the residents, cars, children, and families. A woman's car was broken, and a mechanic helped her fix the car. A man pushed his cart and sold something fresh. Probably this painting described some evening; people just finished their work or school and wanted to go home. Maybe there was a school near the street; I saw a mother bringing her children and a father driving a car with his family. A store was crowded, so a woman must wait outside of the store. Some people were living in an apartment and a mother was holding her baby watching those people. I think this painting described the end of a day of a downtown; it was bustling. Probably the artist likes to draw daily life.

Summary - How To Remember Your Dreams
I read http://meaningofdreams.org/dream_recall/rememberingdreams.htm
Dreams happen in the Rapid Eye Movement. People can't remember what our dreams are when we get up. Dreams are like a computer; they record every event everyday. Dreams aren't continuous memories or photographs. Just write down the dreams that we can remember. This is a description about how to remember our dreams.
In my opinion, it gives me a useful method to record my dreams. Dreams are a part of our life; by the dreams, we can understand ourselves easily.

Dream
I have dreamed that something will happen in the future. For example, I have dreamed that I am talking with somebody or doing something a few weeks or a few months later. So when I am at the timing, I fell familiar about my action, disscussion, the person, and the surrounding. Although the dreams don't include bad events, I would like to know the meanings about the dreams. Why do I know what will happen in the future? If I can find the answer, perhaps can tell people what accident will happen and prevent it. Or I have the prediction ability.

Summary
In this reading, it describes the fact that the Pirates ride combines the movie and popular ideas; it not only makes popularity but also brings money. It also describes the pirates' characteristic that cause people to imitate the action, and even want to be a pirate. Women got effects deeply; they carried bags of food into the park. Of course, these effects are given by Disney's technologies, and Disney will continue to expand other parks in different places in order to make money.
