william l. palminteri Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Stephanie, why wait for some self acclaimed 'art critic' to come up with something? Why don't you come up with something yourself? I did. 'Return to the Truth'. Bill P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pathways Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I liked the Wiki lead into Christopher Alexander. All of the epochs, modernism, post-modernism, and post-post- modernism are what the old photographer-philosopher used to call "cowpaths". That is to say, trails constructed for comfortable travel with your head down. Why not just let all that go? Remember Darwin walked on cowpaths too, but he looked about, asked questions and he walked through a different world than anyone else ever had before. And when he left the cowpaths, he described a world that many people still do not comprehend. Final point (for now) remember the purpose of the original BA degree - it was to teach a student all the things he (or she) would need to go out into the world so they could teach theselves the things they really wanted to learn.
