@UltraFaux Your tweet captures the profound and beautiful truth that the heart of all art (of😎living?) is the creative act of instinct-- "painting outside prosribed boundaries"--or, acting without knowing the precise outcome before hand.

#OrderChaos: Imagine each dot is one of 8 billion people on earth. What Common Sense has evolved over 100k years of human existence?

1. Group power survives over individual power.

2. Today, group power is 50% Democratic (250 yrs) & 50% Authoritarian (99,750 yrs) by population.

#OrderOutofChaos is how Reality evolved from raw Nature. Life grew exponentially and with it, KNOWLEDGE. By 1900 "K"doubled in 100 years; 1950, in 25 years; 2020, daily! The whole is now way smarter than any one of us so we resort to our own truths & facts creating more chaos.

#ZeroTheorem clip: Terry Gilliam's vision of our digitally-connected society. Themes:

“All profit is made by turning chaos into order.”
“LIFE is a virus infecting the perfect organism of DEATH?”
"Each human life has no evident meaning."
"Meaning?" JOY co-created with others.

#ZeroTheorem employs a densely compacted language that seeks to codify all known phenomena in the universe that should explain the purpose of existence in this dystopian movie. Original trailer 2014: https://t.co/IEhXbCYDVz

5. #Morikawa: CONGRATULATIONS!!! I am happy for your win, but more so for your courage to go for it. Most people would have advised you to be more conservative. Why take a chance since chances were already high you would be in a play off at worse. But you soared like an eagle.

#CollinMorikawa, 23, was tied for the PGA Championship with 6 others as he stood on the 16th tee, a 293-yard par-4. Its hole was cut on the extreme right a few yards from a sand trap. A risky high fade the only choice. He went for immortality! See how:

As the leader in a major with all the pressure, Collin Morikawa dials up this drive? Unreal.

[Robert Harris PhD @viewshift1]

4. #Morikawa: after a few seconds the path curves more sharply heading down to land in 27 feet, trundling to 7 feet from the hole between sand tap & hole. He sinks the putt & pars in 17 & 18 at 13 under par, PG Champion. All from a 0.75 sec back-swing & 0.25 sec forward-swing.

3. #GoodTrouble: Our job of honoring John Lewis is to KEEP THE FIRES OF “GOOD TROUBLE” BURNING HOT, as Gwen McCrae sings soulfully in 1982: “Keep the fires burning, Keep them burning hot. Work on your love. You gotta give it all you've got.”

Will the TV program “Good Trouble” have its 20-year-olds explore what they could learn from the “Original Gangster (OG)” of #GoodTrouble - Congressman, John Lewis (RIP)? Google searches for “Good Trouble” focuses on the TV show; DuckDuckGo focuses on legacy of John Lewis.

WHY?

[Robert Harris PhD @viewshift1]

2. #GoodTrouble has a purpose: TO DISRUPT WHAT IS TO MAKE IT BETTER. It’s what we are constantly learning as we experience how dangerous and uncertain living can be, as well as how surprisingly glorious. John Lewis taught us how to live in this mixed Reality by how he lived.

1. #GoodTrouble: The answer to “WHY” above is simple: Google saves and shares personal search info, DuckDuckGo does not. Note that Google brings up a popular TV show pitched aggressively to WATCH & BUY; DuckDuckGo brings up KNOWLEDGE about John Lewis.

2. “Enlightenment on the ballot” means LOGIC in our political discourse is out of balance with the current level of MAGICAL musing. Too much of one, not enough of the other for these times. Voters will decide where balance needs to be re-established.

[Robert Harris PhD @viewshift1]

“ENLIGHTENMENT IS ON THE BALLOT THIS NOVEMBER.” Jon Meacham’s intriguing answer given on TV two weeks ago has stuck with me. He continued: “Are we willing to believe the evidence of our own eyes as opposed to pre-existing views we might have had.”

1. The two push/pull forces that shaped modern society were the #Renaissance (14th to 16th centuries) era of artistic discoveries in painting & design from SUBJECTIVE creativity, followed by the #Enlightenment (17th - 18th centuries) era of rational & logical OBJECTIVE thought.
