Some notes about art and creation

Some notes about art and creation.

  1. It is helpful to distinguish between the author-creator, the author-public-figure and the author-critic.
  2. One commonly made mistake is to consider the author-creator knows what kind of statement their creations make.
  3. There isn’t one and only one value to a creation.
  4. It is fallacious to factor out the technological and social context of a creation, both for the author and the spectator.
  5. It is interesting to find out who makes and enforces the rules that make an author’s recognition possible.
  6. A creation is a window into human nature.
  7. One helpful axis to analyze discipline is how abstracted they are from the pure gesture of creation.
  8. One purpose of craft is to impose on us the illusion that the artificial is real.
