INTRODUCTION TO 2nd PROJECT: IDEAS & RESEARCH

Hello again people of the web! Miss me? Once I again I come back with a few stories to share. This time is about my 2D Foundation Class’ 2nd Project which is titled “Point of View”. In this assignment we are required to think of an object and how it can be viewed by something else in a different way. You could say we are required to think out of the box! You can have multiple objects but I chose to have one which is a rabbit!

The reason why I chose a rabbit is because I have taken a Children and Literatures module. In one of the reading requirements I was suppose to read about Alice in Wonderland. I was so intrigued by the novel that I wanted to do something with one of my ADM projects to pay homage to it that I promised myself if the opportunity presents itself I would do it. So two out of six sentences I manage to get inspiration from Lewis Carroll’s novel, while the others I try to find it myself. I ended up having 20 sentences to choose from and those are:

  1. A rabbit from the point of view of Alice is curious. (Alice in wonderland)
  2. A rabbit from the point of view of the Red Queen is a servant. (Alice in wonderland)
  3. A rabbit from the point of view of my sister is a toy.
  4. A rabbit from the point of view of a hunter is a prize.
  5. A rabbit from the point of view of a carrot is the end.
  6. A rabbit from the point of view of a snake is a meal.
  7. A rabbit from the point of view of the Chinese mythology is a resident of the moon.
  8. A rabbit from the point of view of a reckless driver is road kill.
  9. A rabbit from the point of view of a breeder is profit.
  10. A rabbit from the point of view of a tiger is a friend. (Winnie the pooh)
  11. A rabbit from the point of view of a zoologist is diverse.
  12. A rabbit from the point of view of Easter is the bringer of Easter eggs.
  13. A rabbit from the point of view of a farmer is pest.
  14. A rabbit from the point of view of Chinese zodiac is the fourth.
  15. A rabbit from the point of view of YouTube watcher is entertainment.
  16. A rabbit from the point of view of magician is an assistant.
  17. A rabbit from the point of view of a mouse is a cousin. (rodents)
  18. A rabbit from the point of view of the superstitious is lucky. (rabbit’s foot)
  19. A rabbit from the point of view of a fashion designer is a coat.
  20. A rabbit from the point of view of time is crepuscular. (active during dusk or dawn)

Shirley, my teacher helped me to short list into six final sentences:

A RABBIT FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF ALICE IS CURIOUS

Many fantasy stories start with the main character transported into a new realm. One might argue is not the rabbit hole that transported Alice, but it is the White Rabbit. All adaptation of Alice in Wonderland always starts with Alice curiously following the White Rabbit. In the chapters, Alice’s curiosity tends to be the cause of her troubles.

A RABBIT FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF THE RED QUEEN IS A SERVANT

In the books and especially in Disney’s 1951 film animation Alice in Wonderland the White Rabbit is portrayed a s a worrisome character. Well, it is understandable if you have a queen like the Red Queen. In Disney’s animated film the Red Queen is a combination of two different queens: Alice in Wonderland’s Queen of Hearts and Through the Looking Glass’ Red Queen.

A RABBIT FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF A CARROT IS THE END

Every carrot’s nightmare is a rabbit. Thanks to popular culture, people associate rabbit with eating carrots. Remember Bugs Bunny? What’sup doc? But in reality a rabbit’s diet also include grass, forbs, and leafy weeds. The exact quantities given often depend upon the rabbit, so you may need to test your buns individual limits, as a rule an average 2.5kg rabbit should get 1.5-2.5 cups of fresh vegetables per day.

A RABBIT FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF A RECKLESS DRIVER IS ROAD KILL

Road kills are animals that are struck by motor vehicles that are driven by humans on the highways. Unfortunately these incidents are causing some animals becoming endangered and other negative impacts such as injury to, or death of, vehicle occupants, loss of valuable livestock or pets, vehicle damage, economic losses (cleanup, repairs to vehicles, etc.) and it is a distasteful sight, particularly costly to locations economically reliant on tourism.

A RABBIT FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF CHINESE ZODIAC IS THE FOURTH

A RABBIT FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF THE SUPERSTITIOUS IS LUCKY

Many believe that a rabbit’s foot is considered to be lucky and bring good luck. This belief is held by individuals in a great number of places around the world, including Europe, China, Africa, and North and South America. It is likely that this belief has existed in Europe since 600 BC amongst Celtic people. But not all rabbit’s foot are considered lucky. There are three conditions that need to be fulfilled which are:

1289766729-952

  • It has to be the left hind foot of a rabbit.
  • The rabbit must have been shot or otherwise captured in a cemetery.
  • However not any left hind foot of a rabbit shot in a cemetery will do: the phase of the moon is also important. Some authorities say that the rabbit must be taken in the full moon, while others hold instead that the rabbit must be taken in the new moon. Some sources say instead that the rabbit must be taken on a Friday, or a rainy Friday, or Friday the 13th. Some sources say that the rabbit should be shot with a silver bullet, while others say that the foot must be cut off while the rabbit is still alive.
