I think art purely as emotional expression is petty, especially when I'm told to 'open my mind' to it. I choose what goes into my mind very carefully, thank you, and none of it is any work by Rothko and friends. That's paint on paper. If you feel negative emotions, and express them by whacking off onto a blank canvas, that's fine with me, in fact I might try it sometime, just don't put that s**t in a museum.

IThis has nothing to do with the for loop topic, but since there are other "artists" here (not that I'm one of them), have you ever used woodless pencils? oh man, they kick ass.

I think they're rather nifty, but they seem a little fancy for my crappy work. They are much better than my crappy graphite pencils.

Yeah, I've grown to love them

They're really awesome for large shaded areas and when using blending.

Oh also, Maddox is awesome. I forgot about that picture lol. [addsig]

Well, it's the opinion of the Oxford dictionary. But as for Oxford's opinion......I hereby nominate myself to represent it, with no justification whatsoever

Personally I appreciate art that has involved some considerable skill and effort - that is to say, craftmanship - in its creation. But I prefer to say that Matt's pictures are indeed art, although not particularly deep or significant art. I like them a lot, but they are fairly dispensable.

In considerably more detail, here is my rough view on definitions of art. It's changed slightly since then, but I still go with a form of non-elitist institutionalism (albeit one that admits of multiple and intersecting artworlds).

I've never been to PSU, but I am truely sorry for you if it's actualy worse than PCC

IMO

Art is pretty much defined by the society in which it is produced, much like anything else. if you can get enough people to agree that somthing is "art" then it is. that's how language as a common conceptual framework functions.

That is the correct definition of art, if you live in the Monty Python artworld.

Oh, I certainly know what you mean. I don't even try to ascribe any explicit emotion to his work, either (I.E. "This represents his inner turmoil resulting from him eating a bad burrito" kind of a thing)... I simply look through the chaos and just see... Something I find beautiful. I really don't know how else to explain it, to be honest. [addsig]

Then don't bother trying. Flash MX (We've had this convo before) is about 50MB+ And its not very learner friendly.

Well, it is, imho.

The tutorials & lessons are clear and comprehensive, and there are sites like www.flashkit.com to help you with other questions.

I learned flash & actionscript without many problems ... just like mapping ... practice, practice and ... practice.

There's probably other programs out there that could let you get the same effect.

Like a spirograph, for instance. [addsig]
