creativity and cleverness are by their very nature intertwined. a clever rehash creates a new setting, a new presentation; and - especially in this postmodern world - is not presentation an integral part of art? a caveat to this is that art can be both creative or destructive, but it's very nature is the in formation or reformation of something (clay, marble, paint, excrement, words, thought, essence

where HAVE all the cowboys...er, opinions...gone?10ofheartsJanuary 31 2005, 01:55:07 UTC
i remember you saying something about perception in someone's lj one time (betty's?)...but, originality is almost long gone. everything that we hear, read, etc. has been said, written, etc. before; how do you think hollywood is still up and running?
i recently did one of those cryptoquip things in the newspaper, and it was a quote...someone said some time ago something to the effect of, originality is hard to come by, but easily recognized. i don't know if that helps at all, but...
i miss battleraps too, dammit...i kicked that twat-hole's ass when all was said and done. alacazam, or whoever he was...
...that fucker.
in any case, if you need to feel reinspired, or if you just want to laugh your ass off, see Shaun of the Dead (not a zombie spoof...rather, a romantic comedy with zombies). the directing is amazing...i believe you'll enjoy it greatly. peace.
