Thinking about the origin of design

For a long time, people have been struggling to explore various conditions in the period of human origin. In the field of art, how various types of artistic activities have come about, how the specific forms and traits of their beginnings have been, and all this is so fascinating that she seems to Deep hidden behind the curtain of history, it makes people vaguely visible and no hope of seeing.

Nowadays, people generally believe that there are primitive forms of various arts in prehistoric times, such as painting, music, and dance. These primitive arts were originally formed in the late stage of the Paleolithic Age, when humankind practiced for hundreds of thousands of years. On the basis of this, it began to generate initial thoughts about nature and human society. It has certain generalization and association capabilities for the things that are repeatedly practiced and re-felt in daily life. They began to consciously think about nature and human society. Day, month, thunder, electricity, water, fire and other natural phenomena heart human relations, human life, old, sick, dead, dream and so on. These thoughts formed the earliest human perception of nature and society. Due to the huge gap between subjective understanding and the objective world, this view of knowledge has a strong mystery and become a primitive religion. Its manifestation is the earliest human artistic activity. . These arts began as a hybrid of music, dance, painting, and other rudiments. There was no obvious independent form.

Art and craft design is a special category in the art field. Its origin is clear, and it comes to the world earlier than any other art. As a practical plastic art, it is visible and tangible. The history of material craftsmanship, the handicrafts produced and used by the primordial people before us cannot change their true nature, and the design of arts and crafts is accompanied by human beings. As we all know, the history of mankind began with the manufacture of tools. The manufacture of any tool was based on the labor needs of the time and the material materials that could be harnessed. The material that nature first provided to mankind to make tools was mainly stone and stone. In terms of source and hardness than any other natural materials, there should be wood tools, bone tools, etc., but their manufacture is also inseparable from the stone itself. Therefore it can be asserted that the earliest arts and crafts design originated from the earliest tool design, and the earliest tool design was stoneware design.

For a piece of stone tools made and used by a "Beijing man" fifty years ago, naturally there is no conscious aesthetic processing. However, at that time, human beings had indeed formed concrete performance on stone tools in the concept. Blueprints, in thousands of iterations of practice, relate to concepts such as "tips," "thinness," or "symmetry" that are built up in a specific manufacturing process, and the thrill of using these shapes during specific chopping. The establishment of thinking became the objective material basis for the earliest understanding of the United States. This kind of understanding has no illusion, and the concept of arts and crafts design originated from this kind of thinking based on the relationship between form and utility. The later philosophers have concluded on this point. For example, Socrates, the first philosopher in ancient Greece to view aesthetic issues from the perspective of social science, once thought: “The beauty must be useful, the usefulness is beautiful, and the harmfulness is ugly.” (g Sennafin's “Memoirs”) Mozi, a philosopher of the Warring States Period of China, later put forward the aesthetic concept of “usefulness is good, uselessness is flawless”. This kind of aesthetic thinking based on the relationship between body shape and the use of pleasure makes the shape of the stone tool continue to develop more regularity, ie, more effective and more beautiful direction. When we present in front of a stone tool of Neolithic era, who can deny that it is a tool design with a clear aesthetic pursuit? This aesthetic is fully reflected in the symmetry of the body, the proportion of various parts, the precise drilling, the beautiful colors, and the smooth touch. From humanity to grinding, the human has experienced hundreds of thousands of years of time, which shows how difficult the pace of human origin has been. It is also during this long period of time that the basic qualities of human beings and the different characteristics of human beings of all races have been established. It also eloquently states that the design of arts and crafts originated from the human social labor, and that labor created the beauty of craftsmanship.
It is the late Paleolithic period 1 to 20,000 years ago when humans were able to make polished stone tools that were polished and drilled. This is precisely the period when the artistic activities of the species gradually formed. Human thoughts of this period have been imagined. Wings encourage people to explore things that do not exist in reality, or to think of other things and other things from this matter and these things. The rich imagination of prehistoric people has become a divine state and legend. It is full of many absurd words, but it cannot be denied that they played a huge role in the history of mankind. The imaginary function made another high-level art and craft design of prehistoric mankind come into being. It was the earliest mankind used to dress up his own original decorations. It and other art forms together expressed the human understanding of natural society at that time. . In our country, the earliest physical design of this type of ornament is the "strings" that were carefully ground, drilled, and drilled after the "Paleokin" was used by stones, bones, and shells in the late Paleolithic period 18,000 years ago. ". This “string ornament” stringed with a string dyed in red is worn as a symbol of beauty for a long time. If the aesthetic of the stone tool is mainly to satisfy actual utility, the aesthetics of these original decorations are used to satisfy people’s psychological needs. Pleasant, of course, this kind of pleasure is inseparable from the natural repentance and social repentance of prehistoric people under the prevailing conditions. It contains people’s perceptions of nature, human society, and primitive religious views. It is full of fantasies from stone tools. From the manufacture to the advent of decorations, the craftsman has also experienced hundreds of thousands of years.

From the advent of the original decorations of the Peak Cavemen, we have to move forward. By the Neolithic Age of about 10,000 years ago, the stone tools and original ornaments have become more and more exquisite, and the human society has transitioned to a stable settlement dominated by the farming economy. In life, another type of arts and crafts design, namely, daily-use crafts and pottery, was born. Especially, the colorful pottery crafts started 7,000 years ago put the arts and crafts design on an unprecedented culmination. Its great significance lies in: it takes stone tools. The integration of aesthetic pursuits based on material utility makes it both practical and imaginative, thus making the richness of people's richness in the original decorations have a broader application, resulting in being The rich and colorful pottery shapes and decorative patterns that are hailed as the artistic pearls of the childhood of the Chinese nation. The inherent duality of arts and crafts design that is laid down by the fusion is the aesthetic of the shirts, and has become a common practice in the arts and crafts creations after guidance. The important principle is that its influence is extremely far-reaching.

In addition to the above-mentioned stone tools, original decorations, and colored pottery, the craft design of human origin also gradually formed the earliest human textile technology, textile craft, silk weaving craft, dress craft, carving craft, and lacquer wood construction craft. It shows the people's pursuit and exploration of the beauty of life in the primitive society, and forms the art and craft design series at the time of origin.
