I’m basically a modern postmodernist lol, someone who talks a lot of shit about everything and anything on the internet, but never offers up much of a solution.
With all this shittalking I do it may surprise some to know that I’m more or less usually pretty happy. I think when it comes down to it, it’s because of my relationships. No matter what happens with me I just know I always got my gang to support me. I’m super lucky to have found a passion at such a young age but at the end of the day passion means nothing if you don’t have people to share it with. That may seem counter-intuitive, but I believe if you are passionate about something it should be a given that you should have no shame in sharing it with the world.
For example, If you feel like it’s your calling to make art but you don’t share any art with the world around you can you really say it’s you calling? In the eyes of everyone else you are not an artist, so you may as well just not be one.
I think this shows two things. 1. Do not stress about your passion because it is meaningless. A passion is really just anything your proud of. And 2. Relationships reign supreme. I am proud to show my art to my friends only because I’m proud to call them my friends.

The 4th dimension is not a new concept. Ever since the 1700’s scientists and artists have worked together to predict what it would look like if humans figure out how to fold into different dimensions. Even a lot of Picasso’s work has to do with his interpretations of 4D space. Today though, the general consensus most artists share in regards to 4D space is that it’s some Joe Rogan DMT fused psychedelic trip. Sure this conceptual art usually looks cool, but it has no basis in reality. I’m here to propose a different theory, this is what “My Interpretation of 4D Space” looks like, allow me to explain myself.
When we look at a 2D object like a painting, for example, we see the whole thing in its entirety because we are in the 3D. But what happens if we were in the same 2D space as the painting? We would only see a certain aspect of the whole depending on where we are located in the space. See my diagram below. Looking at the piece of paper we see a stick man and a circle. But if we pretend we are the stick person what do we see? Not a circle, but rather just a curved vertical line. It would be impossible for the stick person to ever see the circle because he can’t access the Z-plane to move either in front or behind the circle to see the whole thing, he’s stuck on the X-Y plane. Therefore, it leads me to assume that in 4D space we will be able to see everything that makes up the 3rd Dimension, in the same way, that we 3D beings can see everything in a 2nd dimension. In the 4th dimension, we will be skinny dipping in space and we will be able to touch stars that used to be thousands of light-years away, it will be beautiful.
This may seem like nonsense now, but in 50 or 500 years whenever we discover how to fold and unfold space-time like Einstein predicted I can’t wait to give y’all a fat I TOLD YA SO.

So, for the second time, [The Pharisees] summoned the man who had been blind and said:
“Speak the truth before God. We know this fellow is a sinner.”
“Whether or not he is a sinner, I do not know,’’ the man replied
“All I know is this: once I was blind and now I can see.”
I’ve never read the bible before but I like that quote. Thank you Martin Scorsese for enlightening me.
