At some point human universals aren't universal, they're provincial.#dynaxiom

Authenticity has to move beyond an isolated individuality. #dynaxiom

We can only have the luxury of knowing less until we've evolved to know more. #dynaxiom

Be the "you" you are, not the "you" you chose for other people. #dynaxiom

Art isn’t necessarily some thing that isn’t “work”. #dynaxiom #creativity

People like to see people collaborating--even if it isn't effective. #dynaxiom

"Aphoristic Pop" based on #dynaxiom 0370, dated ~2002. (The song would end with "Stop It!") a la Utopia.

Uniqueness is genderless. #dynaxiom

If the internet existed fifty years earlier, just think how much of history would have been archived and accessible. Is this a good thing for history, or is a better #history made up of things lost and forgotten and then reconstructed? (7/2015) #dynaxiom

You know you have a good idea, or that can lead to a good idea, if there’s room for variation. #dynaxiom #creativity

There can be a bridge and a tunnel, but never both that lead to the same place. Bridges connote a brighter future based on the freedom to cross them, but tunnels, since underground, represent a surreptitious escape from places that close or even destroy bridges. In a stressed civilization you'd find more tunnels and walls rather than bridges. #dynaxiom #mlk

When you promote the idea of democracy, you increase the chances of the rise of artistic movements, as democracy provides the perfect environment for ideas and innovation.

(But Futurism also arose from a "democratic" ideal)

When we talk about music having 'spiritual' qualities, it is the element of serendipity that defines it. #Jazz can have the capacity for 'spirituality' simply because of its improvisatory nature, which can, to some degree, remove the over-analytical mind. #dynaxiom #spirituality

Dynaxiom 1405: There are two basic ways to add cohesion to #creativity: 1) create the work, then serialize; and, 2) create similar pieces in an existing series. This also works in music where you can compose first, then add to a collection (album) or define the framework for the album and fill it in accordingly. #dynaxiom

Sometimes when you realize something isn't the way you thought it was, you'll never think about it that way again. #dynaxiom

The place in which a work appears, whether it be in a gallery, museum, park, street, etc. completes the work, at least temporarily. When you take a work out of a place, it is unfinished again. #dynaxiom #art

Both the #artist and layperson can see the artistic value in random connections between disparate objects or circumstances, but it's only the artist that marries the two, to be seen theretofore as a 'framed' holistic experience that can be viewed repeatedly. #dynaxiom

Music becomes more interesting when you compose and perform with the "ear's eye", i.e. "music as a painting". #dynaxiom #creativity

Everything I do has an ancillary goal of being connected to something else. If I haven't made those connections, or at least noticed them, the work is temporarily inert. It might be 'finished', but unresolved in a perfect sense.#dynaxiom #creativity #curiosity

A piece of art or music is a touchstone for a future context. In essence, it awaits unknown connections and circumstances that might occur in the future--with meanings that the original artist might not have realized. (Always consider the effect the future will have on your work). #dynaxiom
