i wonder

what's art?
perhaps art is about beauty
but whats beauty?
is it in the expression and interpretation of human emotions or in technicality?
maybe it's because i'm not good at anything
but i'll say its in emotions
technicality, in my opinion, should only be used to better express these emotions
should only be used to just enough to get the emotions across
but it seems like most of 'art' out there is about technicality
it for its sake
it it all that we care for?
then why not we get computers to create art?
or is it about emphasizing how humans, as imperfect as they may be, can be close to perfect?
and we value technicality because we see in these 'art' signs of human qualities most people dream of, of perfection, that most can never achieve?
is art about glory, about showing how good you are, for the sake of it?
have we became so obsessed with getting to the top, that beauty, instead of being associated with humane emotions, have became with perfection?
i guess it did
cuz people seem to use 'beauty' and 'perfection' interchangeably
or maybe it has been all the while and i was just a disillusioned kid
but still, if only we could only separate art and perfection
we might get to the heart of life
yeah i know its good
