Task Three-Experiment 1
I am wondering I build a circle of noticing, I will write what I am going to notice and then go to the place notice, I notice more than what I expect to notice, I found out that I normally notice numbers in Task Two, How can I notice more things?
PICK UP A LOCATION That I know well.
I am going to go to the Woolworth that near my apartment.
Step 1. Set up an alarm – 5 mins
Step 2 Stop at the point and then use one min to see what you don’t know about this place before
Step 3. Taking picture

Reflection:
In our life, we can not notice everything, people notice things for good reason. According to Mason’s reading, “We need to be selective in order to survive. “This sentence really interested me as well. I understand that we will notice things we think it useful to ourselves, so I did this experiment to draw my attention to things pass us by. In those pictures, I recognized there are a lot of things I’ve missed. This experiment is not just for intentional noting, it also draws attention to our part of everyday experience, it can help my personal further development. A lot of things we pass by, we notice that thing but we didn’t mark those things. It led me to notice more things that we don’t normally see, back to my question. In order to notice more things, we need to give a mark for those things, no matter if a picture, it a piece of voice…This experiment tells me sometimes we really need to spend the time to observe things around us, it leads me to notice what I am not already sensitized to and therefore change the way of my thinking.
Refine
After this experiment, I went to the place that I familiar with. I still got a lot of “letters information”, I am thinking that if I go to someplace that I never been there before and their almost no letters information, what am I going to notice? If I am in the natural environment, by using what I’ve learned in the first experiment, what I am going to mark in this environment?
