RE: Art is a Threat

in Art Talk2 months ago

I have written a post on the tyranny of words in the urban environment. I need to take pictures for it, but it will come at some point in the future. I look forward to publishing that.

I agree entirely. Literature and music are threats of their own, and well beyond the scope of what I could write about ina single post.

Echo chambers are not great environments for expression; and well cultured individual will be able to participate in many fields competently, and flit like a butterfly, cross pollinating across many.

Thank you for you enormous depth of reply.

Sort:  

Well cultured? But we live in Australia - few butterflies here... Bahaha.

The fewer the butterflies, the more beautiful and terrifying the ones you see are. Even lions agree:

Great painting. Thanks. Keep slapping me with art.
