Are you still an artist if you stop sharing?

Sat Mar 14, 2009, 5:00 AM
No clue. But it's interesting to think about. If you still think pretty thoughts and make pretty things but you don't share them, are you an artist?

I haven't written here in a while, but I stayed up last night analyzing data and it's sort of lonely in my room right now (no roomates are awake! or neighbors! or anyone! and it's almost 9! lazy lazy!) so here I am.

Thank again for all of the nice comments that keep coming. I cannot believe that thumbprint piece has been seen by so many people... I can only help my science will generate as much interest!

Science is the new art.

That's not true. But it sounds good. We could *make* it true! To hell with paint and music... let's collect empirical data to make philosophical points and poetry!

Okay, I might be sleepy. Goodnight dA, goodnight sun.

Hm? Have you ever looked to see how many people who copy each other on DA and don't reference others? I am not the first and I am certainly not the last.

There's nothing wrong with using someone else's work as a source of inspiration. To clarify, check this out: [link] ~RekTruk starts with a painting by `jasinski, but makes it his own by using his own painting style and changing the species of the painting's subject. He cites the original work and links it.

The problem is not using someone else's work for inspiration. The problem is copying a substantial (some would say entire) work of someone else's and then passing it off as your own. It is unfair to the author of the original work. Their creative efforts deserve better.

I was unaware that people copy other people's work in their entirety and do not cite the original work on dA. I've always known dA to be a community of people who give creativity (and creators) the respect they deserve. Could you link me to some of these deviations that copy the work of other deviants in their entirety? I haven't come across any other than yours myself.

Okay, seriously, quit contacting me. That includes, leaving comments on my profile, notes, etc. It's to the point I feel as though I am getting harrassed by you. So climb down off you pedestal and quit pointing the finger at me saying, "YOU DID WRONG!" Because I hate to tell you, you're no more perfect them me. And I am not the first artist to do it nor am I the last artist.

A lexicographer might point out that no one can be any more or less perfect than anyone else since perfection is by definition absolute in nature (i.e., binary, in that it is or it isn't). Luckily, I'm not a lexicographer, so I won't.

A logisticians might point out that the "everyone else is doing it" argument rests on the logical fallacy ad populum, or "appeal to popularity". Logisticians love Latin... I'm not one, so don't ask me why!

A clinical psychologist might point out that using ad poplum to justify one's own actions is a classic example of the rationalization ego-defense mechanism. Personally, I think clinical psychology makes human behavior seem much simpler than it really is, so I wouldn't make that sort of point.

I just read a lot of Wikipedia, so I won't point out anything.
