Welcome to the Real World

I am a highly opinionated and political individual. I also have some ideas that may sound strange or far fetched. I really don't think that everything is a conspiracy and that everyone is out there to get me. But even paranoids have enemies...
You may not like what I am saying but this doesn't give you a right to flame. Keep calm, take a deep breath, think and post a comprehensive reply.

Ars Longa, Vita Brevis.

Art is long and life is short.

Life is short, art long, opportunity fleeting, experience misleading, judgment difficult. Art is there for the duration, is immortal, but life of the flesh is short. You will die before your artwork.
Hippocrates said so, and he was of course, right!

On the following pages I will display my art.

Ha!

I haven't created any of this "art" yet, but I am still advertising it.

I may SELL my art before I create any...

the truth is that I discovered long ago that I may be great at imitating, copying or even improving on other peoples work, i really lack on the creative side. It is almost impossible to create something new and interesting.

why bother?

because I found the answer: what is the ultimate copying tool? A photographic camera! YES!!!

I can now hide the lack of any creativity on my side, I can copy shamelessly anything I see and I can still say I am making art

so stay tuned, once I have created something I will upload it for the world to see.

I have a dream... I have a dream of being very famous (or infamous) until 2012 and then... get into politics.

This is primarily for me: I am trying to discover where I stand in a world of rapid changes, where people try to define their world view through philosophies that are at least 100 years old and, as we can see, don't apply anymore to this world. We came a long way from the times that political philosophy was intertwined with religion.

Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel is, in my worldview, the father of them all and if we could refer to his point of view on a contemporary society (e.g. if he lived today) we would have a clear enough stepping stone to live buy. But he is terribly outdated, as everybody else.

Most modern (mid 20th century and later) philosophy is focusing on studying navel lint. We urgently need some kind of -ism to guide our collective of this interconnected globalized village we live in.

Let Me Hear you
Make decisions
Without Your Television
Let Me hear you speaking
just for me.
