Social Realistic Writing 10 July of 2015

One of our elements or written values is social realism. Social Realistic Writing is con-ducted for the purpose of influencing society and the broad masses for empowerment and inspiration. However, it is important for words in such literature to be impactful on the populous and in some cases memorable. If you stay up and entire night and ponder or think why people are not improving themselves or becoming more revolu-tionary, then you need to improve your tactics on having social realistic writing. Re-member that the best ideas come from pondering and thinking not celebration. Con-sider, how Marx discovered Dialectical Materialism by combining the works of Dialec-tics and Materialism. This is why we need to study words and persuasion and how it could be useful in fiction and non-fiction. In this particular pamphlet, I take a look at Adam Khoo(Singaporean capitalists) theory of 8 Elements of Super-memory.

1)Visualisation: It is important for social realistic literature to involve elements of imagery. Revolutionaries such as Bhagat Singh often used Theatrics or acting in his group to help elaborate on plans. This is why it may be hard to remember quotes from The Communist Manifesto or The Poverty of Philosophy by Karl Marx. However, it is fairly easy to remember or comprehend What Is Communism? by Engels be-cause it requires to use more of your visualising side. The human mind thinks in pic-tures. Hence, words are not as impactful to readers as images. This is because your brain operates from two sides, the right and the left side. One side is focused more on logic and the other side is focused much more on creative and visual side. The more part of your brain you use the more you can remember certain things. When writing fictional books and authors, authors may choose to use a lot of imagery, smilies and metaphors, in order to encourage the reader to stretch the readers imagination. Preferably, such metaphors should be used in reference to something which the reader is familiar with. I have learnt that using written metaphors and similes may be very hard and hence I use the plot and actions themselves as metaphors and educational tools. Simile and metaphors may also be used in moderation to appeal to the visual side.

2)Humour: The human mind is proven to remember facts or opinions which appear to be more humorous. We tried to used a lot of humour within our written values manifesto, our short stories and play, to allow the words containing in them to be more memorable. However, focusing too much on the humour can distract you from your writing. Learning to be humorous however organised is a skill that you have to learn and currently something Im still trying to find a balance for. Find a way to be humorous and organised at the same time. This is a challenge. However, should be considered. Due to this, it may be important to add humour into fiction and non-fic-tional writings in order to make it more social realistic.

See how much more easier it is to remember the painting Driving God by A.ADeika compared to Hydroplanes.

3) Rhythm: Rhythm is important in order to increase the likeliness of a person re-membering and comprehending a particular piece of fact. This is probably why songs on the radio are much easier to remember in comparison with school notes. Hence, it is important to input rhythm into our writings. This may be created by rapping it over a beat such as a rap piece, or simplifying summaries of notes as a simple rhyme. How come you still remember the A, b, c song for over 20 or more easy however find it hard to remember to complete a manifesto or tasks?

4) Wholism: Wholism is the ability of a particular text to illustrate the concept as a whole. A writer may brainstorm before writing in order to explore as many branches of a concept as possible. For example, if a person was trying to study The Poverty of Philosophy or Thesis on Feuberbach. I based my short story, The Unfinished Journey, on the words present within the Thesis on Feuberbach in which I tried to in the best way possible illustrate in an informal way concepts that were present in the book as they applied in our modern lives. My focus was more on the conclusions that I receive from the expansion of some of the key concepts. Personally, speaking through this I was able to personalize my reading of the thesis and I was able to con-vert that musing into more of a personal inspiration. I tried my best to think over the conclusions that I could receive. I was too tired and sick of rhethorical analysis(as I already did that for the Communist Manifesto) which later developed into the play Behind Enemy Lines. However, I should have done a mind-map or a brainstorm of the book in order to provide me with better insight into the concepts of realism and materialism present in the musing by Marx. You could also publish or write up a mus-ing to help you spew your ideas to ensure that you can be more organized when writ-ing an article or a short story.

5) Associaton: A chain of dierent information are easier to remember compared to isolated pieces of information. Rumis poetry is very easy to remember and recite be-cause it flows through and links very well. It takes a person ages to read The Com-munist Manifesto however much less time to read What is Communism? by En-gels although Engels includes much more information and if we are taking about pages than What is Communism? is much more longer than the The Communist Man-ifesto. The simple writing trick that Engels uses is causation, or the relating of one concept to another. The comrephending abilities of the reader increases as the reader is more interested. In fictional literature, we may look at how I used the coee spilling scene in Chapter 4 Starbucks of my short story The Unfinised Jouney.

6) Outstanding: We are more likely to be interested or remember things which are crazy or unheard of. If you go to Yahoo or other news channels you tend to constantly be distracted or procrastinate. Have you ever wondered why. Its because of the ex-tremity of the headlines such as Breaking News: Justin Bieber Murdered an Elephant or Photo Leek-Kardashians Bathroom photos. In a similar way, Aristotle was known for slapping his students in order to make them remember what he said. This doesnt mean that you go around slapping members in order to help them remember to do tasks or slap someone before asking them to read your text. However, it is important to include some Brechtian or out of the ordinary elements in your short story or play or your writing. Consider the scene in which people hump the ground in Chapter 3 The Alien Trick in my short story The Unfinished Journey,.

7) Color: Making your texts of a certain colour or changing colours every now and then allows for the reader to remember or comprehend more of what you write. This may be done by changing the colour of your text every paragraph. When trying to read or take notes for a fairly boring text such as The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx. A proactive reader may copy all of the text from the book into a word processing doc-ument and make the text more ergonomic or in other words change the format of the book to this or her advantage. This may be done in order to increase the speed of reading and/or comprehension.

8) 5 Senses: The human mind can also judge senses. The more sensual your writing may be, the more the reader can remember or is able to comprehend what you write. However, too much of such imagery should be avoided. If this is done in a formal way I find that the meaning becomes dissolved. Due to this, it may hard to really to cut trough to the audience. Although , undoubtfully the people are the most important people in the world. Sensual imagery should be used in a way that they are under-standable by the broad masses. The main aim should not be to glorify yourself or build a higher reputation. It should be to reach the road masses about your ideas or to un-derstand yourself
