1)One thing I learned in my art class this term. Art changes space. We were at P.A.M. a few weeks ago. I had to ask (I’m like the annoying Kid that questions everything) "How is this art? It would take 5 mins to make.” It was two steel squares with a gap in the middle and a cyliner in the middle with 1 weld at the top holding it all together. I'm aware that art can be ridiculous. I joke about that- if you don’t know what to major in, do art. Anything can be art.
But this to me was crossing the line.
Then my teacher said, “look, its like a wall, or a barracade,and you have to walk around it. It changes space. It interrupts you and literally makes you have a different view.”
I love that! Art isn’t just directing your eyes through linear recession, focal points, colors, layouts, using negative space… and provoking/controlling/manipulating someone to think a certain way. or try to. It changes space! We as people are art. (read genesis and creation) We should change the space we occupy.

If its right its not lame. Remember what art and all media can do and the hostile deciever that uses it. "artistic integrity" will kick your butt if youre not on top of it.


2)I like old movies! I get to see what life was like back then. Its a picture of the basics. shelter, water and food. It was physically harder then. But God was valuable.
Now post age of industrialization and dependence on other things, we’re doing it. We control, we’ve got it.
Back in the day people had a better sense of “I have no control” and didnt depend on them selves.
Inventions are great and helpful for living and the economy…, but forgetting that God is in control = we lose. Matthew 6:19-20
We don’t need God in a tangible way now. So its even harder to recognize him.

- this is how I see it. How do you see it?
