My Alien Conformed The Typical Alien

Walton Ford creates paintings that are based on the style of the naturalist style of John James Audubon. Audubon was a naturalist who studied the biodiversity and anatomy of animals in their habitat or by examining a dead specimen. Ford uses the style of Audubon, however, unlike Audubon, Ford does not make the subject of the painting life-size and proportional to the real life animals.(Ford, Artnet) Ford does this to make the art seem more conceptual, rather than logical and realistic. (Ford, Art21)

Let us first start off with some good examples of Physical Appearances and Artifacts, or the personal objects we use to announce our identities, interests and backgrounds. Our appearance includes everything from our body type to our hair style to our skin color to eye color to height. (Orbe & Bruess, 2005) We have five characters, all representing a possible cliques in high school. We have Andy, the clean cut jock; neat blonde hair,

Alien (Ridley Scott, 1979) is a science fiction film about the clash between technology and the human being. It is especially relevant to the theme of birth and reproduction. At the end, there is a struggle between two species for survivor. The clip presents the first meeting between the high technological human being and the alien. They are both a treat for each other, but at the same time the both need each other. The entire clip could be divided on three parts, the first one at the entrance into the alien spaceship, the second part, the discovery of the dead alien, and the third part, the discovery of the eggs chamber. The protagonists are three members of the Nostromo´s crew: Dallas (Tom Skerritt) Kane (John Hurt) and Lambert (Veronica

Appearance vs. reality is shown in “The Possibility of Evil” by Shirley Jackson through character development because looks can be deceiving. In the story it states that she always uses "a dull stub of pencil and always prints in a child block print"

Our brains can process perceptions in two ways: Bottom up and top down. In bottom up processing, there are 3 different ways that a person interprets or perceives what they see. Template matching uses prior knowledge of an object and creates a template using that prior knowledge. For example, the brain can use a template of the letter A in order to perceive an A. Template matching is very particular and uses every detail to create a template. However, prototype is a more generic type of matching. Prototype uses an idealized representation of an object or event. For example, to perceive a dog, the brain uses a generic idea of a dog (head, pointy ears, wet nose, big jowls). The third type of bottom up processing is called categorical perception.

The nature of appearances. Are they (as Kant sometimes suggests) identical to representations, i.e., states of our minds? If so, does Kant follow Berkeley in equating bodies (objects in space) with ideas (representations)? If not, what are they, and what relation do they have to our representations of them?

The fact that the octopus was faced with something that it had never encountered before and yet managed to adjust means that our initial conclusion is wrong: it cannot simply be down to learned behavior. In this case, the novel geometric canvas is to the octopus what a never heard sentence is to us. It turns out, an octopus has its own way of dealing with the variety present in its environment, as long as it fits in with its pigmentation abilities, the same way we have ways to deal with the expressive variety of language in our own environment thanks to our mind's capacity to recognize

We all have mental pictures like this. But the pictures we have seen may have been computerized to make them more appealing. The problem arises when we take our mental pictures and believe that the real thing should be like our preconceived notions instead of thinking that our mental pictures are just ideas of the real thing. As a result, we are disappointed with the real thing because it does not look exactly like what we thought it should.

The way we look can be argued to be mainly due to nature. The genes we inherit from our parents make the basis of we look. For example, people often say ‘Don’t you look like your father/mother!’ Genetic inheritance can determine our eye colour, whether we have straight or curly hair or how tall we will be. We

When I analyzed my self-representation I noticed many different things, from the rhetorical message that it gave to people, to the physical aspects that would be interpreted by first time viewers. If someone looks at my visual representation they would interpret that I am a very serious or conceited guy because I am just giving a smirk look. In my visual representation there is ethos and pathos appeals that helps send a message to first time viewers.

When I was in seventh grade I was constantly drawing eyes; all of my papers and all of my notebooks were littered with them, in all different shapes and colors. When I graduated from middle school to high school, my affinity for eyes expanded to a love of human features in general. For as long as I can remember I've been inspired by all the different shapes, sizes, colors, and features people have, however, I never realized this until I began to express it through art.

The first Alien movie is one of my favors whose sound evokes terror and suspense. The scene that used sounds build terror and suspense is very intense was when Captain Dallas was inside the cramped air-duct. The other members were tracking the Alien on a computer and communicating it to Dallas. The computer was making clicking sound to show were it was located and then all the sudden the tracking sound stops and you have stone cold silent. This silence creates an eerie vacuum that sense of something impending is about to bust. Then all the sudden the clicking sound started up again and begins to get louder and louder and is moving towards Dallas. Then silent, and you then see Dallas gets out of air duct, turn and is face to face with the Alien.

There are many people that you would not like because of how they look and act. Many people may have the appearance or attributes of one of their parents, but few people look and act different from their parents or any form of human traits. As shown in the short stories “The Most Dangerous Game” by Richard Connell and “The Interlopers” by Hector Hugh Munro, the people are like animals because they and act different from other

In order for alien eyes to see what humans can’t see the structure and the amount of their photoreceptor cells, have to differ.

Most of the time our outwards appearance aims at at creating our very own handcrafted message. We want to portray ourselves to the world as a specific image. We choose our outfits, polish our
