Art 250 - Manifesto

The laws of science: gravity, potential energy, momentum, statics, superposition, thermodynamics, Ohm, addition, etc. I am bound to this. You are bound to this. We are all bound to these laws.

The laws of creativity: .none.
We all have the ability to create.

Originality.
Who is original?
Has every good idea been taken?
Good artists copy, great artists steal.
To waste time trying to be original would kill the purpose of trying to be creative.

Perfection.
Who is perfect?
How do you achieve perfection?
Perfect practice makes perfect.
To waste time trying to be perfect would kill the purpose of trying to be creative.

What lies in between the delaying space is there for me to fill.
I have the potential. I have the energy.

It begins with a message.
It continues with a process.
Theres the discovery of a medium.
It follows with continually refining the message.
Continually looking through new viewfinders and angles.
All of the worlds beauty, majesty, and vividness should be absorbed.

Not for pride.
But for the satisfaction of capturing creativity.
For Its bound to us.
