Aesthetics

Dragon Energy, (the unfounded, unwavering and absolute belief in the self) is a conceptual pathogen that lays waste to human intellect. This video takes a look at the issue. We’re going to take a look at a diagram that I’ve constructed, to try to make the case that ALTHOUGH we’re currently living in the midst of a Global Corona Virus Pandemic – We’re also living in the midst of a Global Dragon Energy Pandemic. We’re going to look at 3 Vectors of this diseases, Donald Trunp, Kanye West and Fousey to try to understand the effects of this conceptual pathogen and how it’s transmitted. If you stick with it to the end of this video I engage in a discussion with Musican and Artist Jacob When on ways that you can inoculate yourself from the disease. #dragonenergy #bigyouselfup

In so many ways we are “living in the future” (it’s never been later than it is right now). From COVID-19 and Trumpian “Truth” to the long overdue exposure of police brutality, culture convulses with the possibility of massive change. In what ways are these forces affecting the ideas that underlie art making? In episode 107 I offer a few thoughts on making art in the midst of a global pandemic.
