A Friday diversion

This week's weblog conversations about intelligence, authenticity, and evolution found a fitting closure in the YouTube video featured on ArtsJournal.com yesterday.

The overview of Theo Jansen and his extraordinary work with kinetic sculpture and hand-crafted biology is just the thing to remind us about the energy, insight, and mind-transformation our colleagues in the arts can deliver.

Thanks, Doug, for posting the link. Always nice to have my awe reflex re-calibrated.

This was amazing -- and reinforced the importance in recognizing the creative process. So often in the arts we are involved in the final product, the painting, the production, the performance -- that we forget the experience of creating has its own value. This value may be applied to life easier than the end product.
