I have to disagree with your statement that all art is now
made only for fiscal purposes. While it is true that there may be more of a monetary
motivation then in the past there are still several artist and creators that
are making art solely for art’s sake. The
first example that comes to my mind is the army of street artists and graffiti
taggers on the streets of every city and town in the world. These are people
who are creating great works of art and don’t want to be known. For most of
them being anonymous is key to their ability to do what they do. I think that
creation is still done for creating sake and that for a lot of artists and
creators the money is an afterthought to the creative process.

Change of Mind: Postmodernism
I agree with your ideas on postmodernism and rules. I really
did not know much about postmodernism and couldn’t give any form of definition
if I had to. It was the idea of the system
of systems that caused me to get some form of grip on the ideas of
postmodernism. The scene from the movie on corruption was extremely true in a multitude
of ways. The whole idea of rules being there only so that we can break them applies
to several different situations from small communities like in the school to
full on international relations between countries. In a way it almost defends corruption
in that corruption is really the only way to get anything done.
