Pinned
I am aware that this may be an unconventional digression—I would like to think that I am perceptive enough to hope at least for \textit{that}—but really any of this might be as such.

I wonder if it’s worth posting my drawings on Reddit. The exposure seems appealing, but…it’s Reddit.

I can’t believe I thought I wouldn’t do visual art ever again, gave all my supplies away, and didn’t make anything for years. What the hell was I thinking?

lol I started doodling in a new 3.5x5in and I hate it
More high school #art from a 3.5x5in sketchbook + some miscellaneous musings on #doodling, which I’m currently having some difficulty starting again:

In looking back, it seems that most of what I doodled before were mostly abstract, atmospheric nonthings, with little realism.

Looking for some #drawing advice. I find that facial features I draw look decent, but I have difficulty with the placement of them. Something is always either too close to or too far from something else.

A Franklian inversion:
Upon being given the task of public speaking in high school, I exerted myself to the point of psychological exhaustion, and without success. I pathetically stumbled through the presentations despite their meager importance.

Me: We should express ourselves clearly using sensible language.

Me (poetry mode): *incomprehensible gibberish*

This might be a long shot, but I wonder if the advent of the information age has lent enough leverage to the format of mathematical writing, where we clearly state the proposition first and only then explain it using a proof technique, to impact the format of discourse outside of mathematics.

I often consider constantly searching for things to say or post and continuously expelling my thoughts to be bad habits, but, on the other hand, that’s exactly what I need to do as a language learner. So, I suppose I’m a bit conflicted.

I find it quite good that Memrise accepts correct answers before the user submits them. It’s a great way to reward the user for exerting his unconscious intuition, rather than enforcing the stubborn, psychometric obsession with certainty.

Tempted to finally start reading David Foster Wallace’s fiction, but also hesitating because I am so not in the habit of reading fiction. It does also seem (as always) that I have tons of other things on my plate, but I feel like those other things are stagnating and boring me a little.

I find that most work in #aesthetics —from Dewey to Schiller to Kant to Herbert Read’s Education through Art (1943)—is just plain stale, but I’m not sure I can call it obsolete, since that would imply there’s something to replace it, which I don’t know is true.

Ich träumte gerade, ich war zurück in der Schule, und jemand erzählte mir zufällige Wörter auf dem Schweizerdeutsch. Ich annehme, das ist gut, wenn man von seinem Studium träumt.
