To have a renaissance and / or age of enlightenment, it requires a few things, like leadership. Who is leading you into your renaissance. Good leadership = good renaissance. Are you including the arts into your renaissance. If not, how good can your renaissance be?
Kentheseer -- You make some good points. The main New Liberal leader is Ayn Rand. She wrote novels too. And there are artists associated with her philosophy of Objectivism. Try Cordair art gallery.
The philosophy, which is associated with ( fine ) art, is aesthetics. I just did a video called The Genius Enlightenment and the Avant-Garde Abstract Art Movement. I took a look at Cordair at gallery. The art they represent is actually craft. They are actually guilty of misrepresentation. But, by today's standard, that's common practice. No one is going to like the truth. Cheers!!!
Kentheseer -- What is the truth? I LOVE the truth!
And how is "craft" different from art? What are some historical examples of "craft" mascarading as art? Cordair's work seems like real painting and sculpture to me!
I'm going to be doing a video called The Difference Between Fine Art and Craft, soon.
Fine art has been art, which has been on the cutting edge or avant-garde. The avant-garde abstract painters created fine art, relatively speaking. That movement evolved to the likes of a Pollock. When an artist copies out dated fine art, that's craft. Kant defined fine art as the product of a genius and that it needs to be original, and not original non-sense.
Kentheseer -- In their respective fields, Pollock and Kant seem like evil, failed, incompetent, tedious, vacuous, empty, rancid, loathsome sewer-dwellers from hell.
As far as I can tell, the rational liberal cultures of Greece, Rome, the Renaissance, and the Enlightenment produced the best, richest, sweetest, most expert, most dramatic, most vivacious, most inspiring, and noblest art of all time.
Sorry to disagree so much, Kentheseer! :-( I look forward to your upcoming video!
You made no comment of my definition of fine art vs. craft.
Do you know how the arts and athletics are interdisciplinary? To enter into the 21st century renaissance and age of enlightenment, this is essential knowledge, which I'm claiming to have and be an expert in.
Indeed, there are many hopeful signs for the advancement of freedom and culture in the future. This video does an excellent job in pointing out just how much progress has been made during the last two decades (and some prior to that). Hopefully, we can follow it up by still more accomplishments in science, politics, philosophy, and culture.
I think humanity has all gone downhill starting in the 19th century. I hope you are right, that the dark night of the 19th and 20th centuries is coming to an end.
NukeMecca -- The history of humanity seems to be "two steps forward, one step back, two steps forward, one step back." I think we're in an ascending New Liberal phase now as evidenced by the fall of communism and crime since around 1990, as well as the neoliberalism of China and India -- which is 40% of the whole planet!

Are you an expert in any field and / or fields?

Kentheseer -- Well, you claim knowledge and expertise, and you say certain things are distinct and "interdisciplinary." But you don't explain much.

I don't think you have aptitude for learning what I'm explaining, if you don't mind me saying.
