A debate of thought is conjured.
There seems to be a consistent pattern or paradigm for this generation. It is argued to be difficult to understand the present phase or to explain.
If there were to be one word to display these times, it could be argued to be: creation.
Many American individuals have been removed from the acts of labor and expect higher waged occupations and standard of living. But there also lacks an ability to sustain life, as those industrial capabilities are lost with time. And now some want to come back to that creating, if only for the sake of creating itself. Much of it appears almost childish. Squiggly lines and burst of swirly colors. And with that, a lack of any consistent intent.
Then that presents the core of the contemplation: why have intent?
Many would argue it be for the element of virtue and having a consciousness of one's environment and life.
But is that to say that the antithesis contains a lack there of?
Or maybe it is considering the triviality of human virtue and righteousness, and the transience of humanity in general.
Why not create something, just because. It is more about the process itself then the actually creation. To prove that a person can procure, produce.
Entertainment contains shows such as superjail
or Tim and Eric
Music filled with abstract noises and blips: Xiu Xiu and
an newly found discovery, Jack Topht and the Vegetables
