Eva Tumanova's connection post
she connected Fernando Botero and Richard Feynman describing their divergent monds and misunderstood work.
I thought that your connection between the artist and the physicist was a very unique one required several different angles of view and complex thought in order to find good connections between the two men. Despite the challenge your connection does not seem forced but rather very natural and true. It shows your passion for the work not only for the artist but presumably found passion for Feynman's life and work. I thought the part in the middle paragraph where you mentioned some shortcomings or negatives in Fernando Botero's such as copying other artist styles made the blog much more interesting to read because it makes it seem much more real. Instead of just shoving happy fun facts down the readers throat you make it real and say this guy wasn't perfect then you take his imperfection and connect it to Feynman which make the writing truly special.
nigel howards captured thought blog.
he described how academia block out creativity and how creativity is not recognized in school
i really enjoyed reading this. it got to the heart of problems i have seen in school since early middle school. i don't fully agree with your statement that the talented in the fine arts don't stand out but i do see where you are coming from in saying it. however i feel as if school stresses academia over art and flaunts the good student over the creative ones so i definitely see validity in your point. i also really like the part where you mention the amazing student misses out on school. i could not agree more, i see students bury their nose in a book that block their view of the outside world. all in all i thought it was very well written and a good read.
