Take Away #2

Todays class was really interesting because of the focus on how we are the real authority on what are art is, and how we create it. Sometimes, as was demonstrated several times during the course of the class, we use inherited rules and structure for ideas and solutions that we really should not apply to anything at all. When discussing the textbook, and "Making it Pretty", I had never thought that my additions would actually benefit anyone. Now though, maybe I shouldn't discount my additions to anything so quickly; but rather try new things, and see where it goes (and do this much more often :) ).
