First Person (entry type):
Greetings.
I thought I would engage you all with a particular philosophical conundrum that has existed for some time. It’s a simple question, but strangles all attempts to answer it.
‘What is art?’
Something you may wish to consider before you answer is that elusive concept of ‘context.’ Can context give something a new value? What happens if we take the Michelangelo’s ‘David’? Because it is on a pedestal, we know it is ‘art.’ But if it is locked in the back of a storeroom, does it cease to be art? What happens if we take something otherwise worthless and place it on the same pedestal, does it in turn become art? Tracey Emin’s 1998 piece ‘My Bed’ is a work that consists of a bed and miscellaneous items in a messy state. Would it be art if it were in a bedroom? Is it art outside of it?
Tell me then-what is your opinion?
Third Person:
The dry sliding noise of paper on paper persisted. Flip. Flip. Flip. Just a tiny effort from a brown thumb sent a page tumbling over, and yet that page contained a whole world. In the chapter of Gluttony, the page held not only words but truly the items themselves. A Hershey’s NutRageous bar. From some time ago-the longer, more flat style. And just below it, another from a day ago. The packaging had changed, along with the shape of the product.
Noah stared at the page containing these treats for some time, considering all the implications of the entry into his collection. He’d been having a few doubts about this recently. Two of the same product, and yet different. One had to be superior to the other-one had to appeal to him more. One had to be ‘the best form of a Hershey’s NutRageous bar.’ Which should he choose? Which one deserved a place in his world? Which one should be banished never to be seen again?
“Sheesh…” The mage reached up, tipping the brim of his hat down his face a little, as if shielding his eyes from some invisible sun that wanted to blind him. “These are the kind of hard decisions I hate…”
A few moments later, the book slapped shut with a noise signalling a definite ending, followed by the tearing of thin plastic and a crunching noise, smooth fillings breaking out from under a hard shell.
The older types were definitely better.
