About plays on ideas. Aforista and other questions. Aforista and other questions. Says a character in one of our essays, I think that the relationship of art to reality lies in the creative act itself. It’s not in the images or other results produced. The creation of images is part of the learning process, not something carried out after it. Creativity is another topic we could go on about. We think that self-expression is an overrated part of it. Those of you who’ve visited our Madeira Press. July 23, 2...

Intimations of Immortality « playsonideas
https://playsonideas.wordpress.com/2015/08/10/intimations-of-immortality
