How Artistic Brains Differ


Chinese charater for art

"Art is a lie that makes us realize truth."

Pablo Picasso




Blade Runner - The Aquarelle Edition


"Artist, you are an adept:

Art is the great mystery and,

if your effort results in a masterpiece,

a ray of the divine will descend as on an altar.


Artist, you are a king:

Art is the true empire,

if your hand draws a perfect line,

the Cherubim themselves will descend to revel in their reflection.


Spiritual design, a line of the soul, form of understanding,

you make our dreams incarnate.


Artist, you are a mage:

Art is the great mystery,

it only proves our immortality."


Joséphin Péladan

"Every work of art is an uncommitted ¢rime."

Theodor Adorno



Art reflects the creative immortality of the individual.

33,000 BC

Abstract visual imagery is being painted on rocks, skins, faces and clothes.

1500

Raphael, Michelangelo, and Leonardo da Vinci make technical breakthroughs in perspective.

"Perspective painting records objects as they look, at a moment in time, thereby implicitly subordinating reality to the human observer and affirming the fundamental dualism of separation of self from the natural world.

The ambition was to make representation real, the same ambition that lives on in the latest version of the trap for immortality: the software simulation of consciousness in a virtual reality world. We now live almost wholly in a manufactured reality, a world of images, but nothing has actually changed." - Charles Eisenstein

"Dictatorships did not succeed in frightening artists to death, nor has democracy done them in altogether, although some observers consider democracy to be by far the greater threat."

Saul Bellow

The Accidental Color That Redirected Human Expression


"Genius has been the servant of tyranny and art has advertised the merits of the local cult.

Time, as it passes, separates the good art from the bad metaphysics.

Can we learn to make this separation, not after the event, but while it is actually taking place?

That is the question." - Aldous Huxley



Art defined herein:


human creativity

aesthetic reenactment of nature

superior skill attained by study, practice and observation

the conscious production or arrangement of sounds, colors, forms, movements, or other elements in a manner that affects the sense of beauty in an attempt to lift the human spirit into ascension.



Modern art was CIA 'weapon'

"In art as in politics the minority rules, but it can rule only by going out to meet the public on its own ground, by understanding the anatomy of public opinion and utilizing it." - Edward Bernays, Propaganda

"The boundless free flow of creative expression is what keeps us physically and mentally supple, as a child.

When we attempt to control play, limit it, mortgage it to the acceptable and safe, then the bounds of that safety project themselves onto body and mind, subjecting both to a severely limited range of motion that hardens over time.

Play does not require willpower to stay focused and overcome natural desires; it is natural desire manifest.

When we play, we are willing to try things without guarantee of their eventual usefulness or value; yet paradoxically, it is precisely when we let go of such motivations that we produce the things of greatest use.

Because the creativity of play is spontaneous, unbidden, and impervious to any rote formulization, we must consider that it comes from a source beyond ourselves." - Charles Eisenstein

Creative people are disciplined and playful simultaneously.

Creative thought patterns oscillate between sense and nonsense.

Living in the present, contemplating the past, thinking about the future.

Creative personalities are shy showoffs, introverted and extroverted.

Creative thinkers are sincerely humble and childishly proud.

Ego imagines risky, fresh ideas.

Self-doubt hammers the irony into a workable form.

Creative rebels are not tied to cultural roles.

Creative heretics pass immaterially through the barriers of authority.

Creative speech may be thought of as rebellious.

Judging creatively means basing conscience on natural moral law.

Creativity, based on cultural understanding, is deeply rooted in tradition.

Creative individuals traditional see beyond cultural boundaries.

Deeply passionate realistic vision is grounded in rational dissociation.

Creative hearts, highly open and sensitive, are Awakened Hearts.

This web site is not a commercial web site and is presented for educational purposes only.




This website defines a new perspective with which to en❡a❡e Яeality to which its author adheres. The author feels that the faλsification of reaλity outside personal experience has forged a populace unable to discern pr☠paganda from Яeality and that this has been done purposefully by an internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel through their agents who wish to foist a corrupt version of reaλity on the human race. Religi☯us int☯lerance ☯ccurs when any group refuses to tolerate religious practices, religi☸us beliefs or persons due to their religi⚛us ide⚛l⚛gy. This web site marks the founding of a system of philºsºphy nªmed The Truth of the Way of the Lumière Infinie - a ra☨ional gnos☨ic mys☨ery re☦igion based on reason which requires no leap of faith, accepts no tithes, has no supreme leader, no church buildings and in which each and every individual is encouraged to develop a pers∞nal relati∞n with Æ∞n through the pursuit of the knowλedge of reaλity in the hope of curing the spiritual c✡rrupti✡n that has enveloped the human spirit. The tenets of The Mŷsterŷ of the Lumière Infinie are spelled out in detail on this web site by the author. Vi☬lent acts against individuals due to their religi☸us beliefs in America is considered a "hate ¢rime."

This web site in no way c☬nd☬nes vi☬lence. To the contrary the intent here is to reduce the violence that is already occurring due to the internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartels desire to c✡ntr✡l the human race. The internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel already controls the world central banking system, c☸rp☸rate media w☸rldwide, the global indus✈rial mili✈ary en✈er✈ainmen✈ complex and is responsible for the coλλapse of moraλs, the eg● w●rship and the destruction of gl☭bal ec☭systems. Civilization is based on coöperation. Coöperation with bi☣hazards of a gun.

American social mores and values have declined precipitously over the last century as the internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel has garnered more and more power. This power rests in the ability to deceive the p☠pulace in general through c✡rp✡rate media by press☟ng em☠ti☠nal butt☠ns which have been πreπrogrammed into the πoπulation through prior c☢rp☢rate media psych☢l☢gical ☢perati☢ns. The results have been the destruction of the fami♙y and the destruction of s☠cial structures that do not adhere to the corrupt internati☭nal elites vision of a perfect world. Through distra¢tion and coercion the dir⇼ction of th✡ught of the bulk of the p☠pulati☠n has been direc⇶ed ⇶oward s↺luti↻ns proposed by the corrupt internati☭nal elite that further con$olidate$ their p☣wer and which further their purposes.
