people create some really awesome stuff. i saw a vid talked about the sublime in art, and it’s like these grand sceneries that make you feel small as a human. and i’ve felt that in nature. in movies. like how long do you gotta really sink into that to be able to put it on paper or a screen? and then i get it when i see it? it’s not just words.
I don’t think you have to inherently get into the line of “content creation” to create. Create for yourself, not others. Only share publicly if you think others would appreciate it, but sharing shouldn’t ever be the sole reason. If it is then you’re “doing art wrong”.
no i’m more like bummed that people don’t stop to appreciate what’s already out there and just consume tons of slop
Oh I think I’m finally understanding your angle now. You’re more sad about that even when art is created with the best intentions it still feeds into the machine of content consumption for those on the other side?
Yeah!
