Philosophy and Art

Now, look at the typical architecture of our current phase:


Form follows fantasy.

The deconstructivists deduced the slogan „form follows fantasy“ from Louis Sullivan’s slogan „form follows function“.

A deconstructivist architect is not somebody who dismantles buildings, but somebody who localizes inherent “problems” to the buildings. The deconstructivist architect treats the pure forms of the architectural tradition like a “psychiatrist” his “patients” – he ascertains the “symptoms of a suppressed impurity”, as Philip Johnson und Mark Wigley wrote in 1988 (cf. “Deconstructivist Architecture”, p. 11). It is just the same old megalomaniac architecture.

Do you think that we are living in a very especially megalomaniac period?

Megalomania is typical for the human species, although this merely means that some humans are megalomaniac and some not. Now we are living in a very especially megalomaniac period, yes, and I think that this phase will show us even more megalomaniac humans in the future.

Produced by the globalists?

I think so.

Yes, by them and their functionaries.

The world was way more megalomaniac in the past than it is now and more so the further back in history that one goes
It might seem worse now simply because we are living through it but it is nothing at all compared to what came before

Well, it depends on the values that are selected - or not selcted, if they are destroyed.

We are talking about a cycle. Sometimes there is much megalomania and sometimes not.

But wait and see. Like I said: “this phase will show us even more megalomaniac humans in the future”. Think of the many problems we already have currently: 7.45 billion humans, a polluted planet, injustice almost everywhere, a lot of wars and of any kind, terrorism … and so on and so forth. And now there are plenty of so-called “experts” who want to live according to their megalomania (as if they were gods) and want to tell you how you should live.

With eugenics still happening, they are Gods on rampages, literally eliminating people from the population with their engineering.

So megalomaniac people produce even more megalomaniac people.

But when and how will this story end?

Ummmm… philosophy is an art.

The globalistic phase will end in this or in the next century, I guess, and before its end there will be a lot of terror attacks, a lot of civil wars, wars with atom bomb explosions and other disasters.

The fact is that philosophy and art are not the same, regardless whether one of them is subordianted or superordinated to the other.

Category error.

You are wrong.

Philosophy and art are not the same. Faust, you are wrong.

let us think about this…

philosophy can be art, it just isn’t right now…

for example, we consider works of fiction, words put together,
as art, so philosophy as words put together can be art, at least
theoretically…

why philosophy hasn’t been art is because philosophers have followed
such bad writers as Kant and Hegel and haven’t followed such
good writers as Nietzsche or Camus… both of whom have written
“philosophical” works of art…

it is both the language used and format used that has prevented philosophy
from being art…both of which comes from not trying to turn philosophy
into art… if we follow Kant or Hegel we can never have philosophy
as art…

Philosophy should sing and dance as Nietzsche thought it should, but that
comes with an understanding that philosophy is not about creating systems
or logic chopping or following Spinoza in creating a book with axioms and
corollaries and this follows this…philosophy can be art if it is about
who we are and what is possible for the human to be or to become…
we can be or we can work on becoming…I believe it is more important
that we strive to becoming and not just to be…and our philosophy should
reflect that and thus becomes art…“Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance”
is art as is the book, “Sophie’s world”

Philosophy can be and ought to be Art… as we know art… it just
takes some effort and imagination for it to do so…

Edit: another philosophical book is “The Razor’s Edge”

Kropotkin

Philosophers are bad artists, artists are bad philosophers. Is that what you mean actually?

Kant and Hegel were good philosophers, if not the best philosophers of all times, whereas Nietzsche and Camus were bad philosophers, especially Camus, but good philosophic artists.

If that is what you mean, then I agree.
