I think that the arts that one community, country produces makes its culture. If you want to find out on what level is the culture of certain community, check the number and quality of movies,music, and other art that community is producing and you will see the level of its culture.
If there is no art, there is no culture, if there is art, then the quality of that art determines the level of culture of certain community. How to make great art? What makes the great art great? My thought about this is, the art is in the air, and there are people out there that can capture that art and materialize it on piece of paper.
Is the pen and paper the only stuff that you need to make art, well yes but that art won't be so great. To make great art persons or person that creates puts all his/hers energy, spirit, concentration, thoughts and creative thinking to realize all that art that's floating in the air.
The most important essence in art creating , the inspiration.And we look for inspiration everywhere we can. From other people art, nature, books etc. If there is no inspiration there is no art there is no culture. Why is the culture so important? Because the culture demonstrates the power of one community, their way of thinking, their way of living pictured in the art.
Mind power vs muscle power.What will win? I think it depends. In direct confrontation physical strength will win. Although not always. Mind can't survive without muscle and muscle can't survive without mind.
In the future people will probably relay only on their mind. Human made only of brain. Or maybe will use our knowledge to improve our muscle, we will become The Borg. Or maybe we will become higher form of existence and become some kind of electric particle beings and share our thoughts without talking, on some weird electric telekinetic way.
I don't know for sure this is only my imagination talking. But the future is in our mind, without mind we have no future.
So is the pen mightier than the sword, is the written word stronger than the steel. I think it is or if it's not now, in the future it will be. Because to make the steel we first have to have idea and to think about how shall we make it. And then write down all those thoughts and start creating. To build house, we think about how shall we build it, we draw sketches and the start building.
I don't want to ignore the essential muscle power that is required to build house. In the future we may probably use robots, androids that will build the house. Until then there must be some kind of balance between muscle and mind, that can enable us to think and to realize all those thoughts (creative thoughts) and ideas into subjects and actions.
And the final conclusion is "The pen is truly mightier than the sword"
Simple, because English is the universal language of understanding between people. Because most of the content on the internet is English. If any other language was made standard for universal understanding i would choose that language to write.
I will never forget where i was born and where i come from and where i grow up. I can't escape that i would never try to do so. Your place of origin is inscribed in your DNA and you can't change that nor i have any wish to do that. The first language you learn is the one your parents speak. The first letters you learn to write are those of the country you grew up in.I will never forget that and ill continue to improve to speak and express in that language.
If i write in English doesn't mean i forgot the ways and culture of the country i grew up in. Nor i have forgot the art, music etc that this country has created and the country i was born in created. And i have big respect for the artists and all the people that create and struggle to create and improve the culture on their main, mother language in this small but full with spirit country.
I have great respect for all Balcan ways and culture. And ill try to care for that culture in the music ill create in future. I haven't forgot where i come from. This place is in my chest with every breath i take, in my head with every sound, smell, taste and in my heart with every pulse. It's my home, it's where i belong.
Money the stuff that make the world spin. The stuff that makes some people happy and some sad by having much or by lack of it. I still think money is the dirtiest stuff on earth. People put it everywhere, you may find it on the road and it goes from one dirty hand to other.
But it must exist, it existed centuries ago and it will exist in the future.It will probably evolve in other form, like online money. It will lose it's paper form (that will probably make it cleaner) but it will still exist. Can person live without money? Yes he/she can, only if they revert to prehistoric way of living, where they depend on them self for food, shelter etc. Plus they will have to move out from the towns to the forests.Where there is no other laws other than the law of nature "eat or be eaten","drink or be drunk"(no that's not right).
That means that person becomes animal, but i think that's not the way to go.We should be going forward instead of backwards. If you want to live in civilization as it is today, and it's very harsh, you need money.
Money is power, money is freedom, money is respect. If you have much you have the freedom to do what you want, not that you have the right to do what you want but you have the power. If you have money, you will buy food, you will be healthy, you could get good education that will get you better payed job so that you can make more money. Why? For your self , to enjoy life even more.
What if you don't have much money? Some will say, well find job. Ok, so you only have money for food. You buy food, your clothes are old, .You start to stink, you don't have money to buy soap, nor you have enough to buy new clothes. You lose most of your friends because they can't stand your smell. You don't have great education because you can't pay for it. You don't have money to pay rent, you lose your living space and end on the street. You can't ask your parents for money they turned their phone off and locked the door of the house. You try to get job, but nobody wants stinking people with no education no friends walking around in their store. And the only choice you have to survive is to steal. Why? Because the people who had excess money didn't wanted to share.
Money is power but that doesn't mean some can live like gods while others don't have for food. There should not be people with excess money, only people with enough money for all their needs and luxuries. And the excess money should be shared for the common good like healthcare and education for everyone. That means free education and health for everyone. Which means more intelligent and healthier community for free. So people have free education, free healthcare, enough money to satisfy all their needs and luxuries.
Money becomes less important than before thus people think less about money and start thinking about other stuff. Smarter stuff. And i think then all forms of art (movies, music, games, theater etc.) will become less bound to the subject of money and improve its quality. Plus relationships between people will greatly improve. People think less about money and have more time to think about friends. There is no reason for war if everyone have food,education,health and all their needs and luxuries are satisfied.
So to end my thought here, i am not thinking of destroying money out of existence, just make it less important for everyone. Or everyone make the money less important.
I woke up sad , i was thinking too much about everything and ended overloading my self.
Anyway i stopped for a second and put some El Dommo on. This song reminds me of my personal search for myself.
In today world we have all kind of pressure by media, society, friends, to be or become something, someone that we are really not. Sometimes i felt embarrassed or guilty of the person i am and tried acting in some way. But nobody is perfect and to learn to accept and embrace and not to be embarrassed by your imperfections is true courage.
People are different people are strange, and if you are different, have different interests and tastes, ways of thinking you get judged. They will try to convert you to their way of thinking or if you do not want to change your way of thought they will throw rocks at you, well maybe they will not do that but in some way you will find yourself alone.
While i was in college (which i quit, maybe ill write about that in other post) i always got comments like "whats that garbage of music you are listening to","nobody listens that", "what kind of garbage music you are playing", "haha your music is for sleeping and meditation".
Well first, quality of music is not determined by the number of views or number of listeners, popularity is determined by the number of views and if you ask me a simple fart sound could get over million views on you tube if you have money to promote it on tv, radio commercials, internet ads etc. There are tons of music out there which is of great quality but the producers, bands, composers don't have the money to promote it, and they stay lost and forgotten in time and space until some persons which know what quality music is upload them on youtube or other online webpage so that other persons like me could enjoy the hidden music gems as i call them.
And about the stuff i am playing and trying to create, it's my music i may play whatever i want for myself. If you don't like it, turn off your speakers, unplug your headphones, don't bother to open link to listen my music.
They called Jimi Hendrix music electric church music, but it rocked the whole world and put some new fundamental ways to create music. He didn't only created music, he changed the world, and after that something went really wrong, and here we are in year where everything is commercialized including the music. Where the artistic style of creating music is dead, the uniqueness. I am trying to make something new even if that is meditation music full with cracks buzzes clicks and other noises those cracks buzzes clicks and other noises where created by me. ....ill try to stay me.
Greetings people. I am young artist and i open this site to share as it says all my thoughts and creative ideas about music ,games, arts, music, food, drinks, society and everything else. I finished 1 year law school and i quit because i didn't had the money to continue and somewhere in the middle of the year decided that,everything that college has to offer is not for me. I decided to look for some job but that didn't went quite as expected. So now i have lot of time in my hands that ill spend writing about everything and maybe earn some money on ads i hope.
What do i like? I like everything from art,literature, poetry, games, movies and the biggest passion is music. Rock and blues music. Mostly old 70s rock music. I like to listen old music records, i must mention i don't own a record player (i tried making one and managed to get some unsatisfactory sound and big scratch on some of my records) but ill get one soon.
I like Russian literature and books and i am big fan of Tolstoy. So that's short intro about me and my interests i hope you will enjoy spending your time on this blog. Cheers!
