Other - Arts & Humanities - September 2007

I've seen some paintings done by some people on the ABC channel and some of them are fantastic. They match the realism and authenticity of some of the great artists of the past. I dare say that many are even better than what Picasso did. There are also great film composers who's compositions are as great as those written by the old composers of the past but they're hardly recognized. What's going on? Even at school and uni whenever a lecturer or a teacher mentions an artist or composer it's always someone who's long gone.

I am a creative person, but right now I have a "Creative Block" (same thing as writer's block). How can I get my "Creative Juices" flowing and come up with good ideas? I don't want ideas, I want to know how I can become more creative. I am starting to make some short comics, but just can't get any good ideas.

Thank you for anybody who can help.

I'm a homelss man who is very down and out. I often wonder why most, (not all) ignore or abuse the homeless. Why is this?
I struggle everyday for food and shelter. I'm not a drug user or drinker, just suffer from severe depression...and being homeless just adds to my depression. I search everyday for work...i'm not lazy...and yet when some sense that i'm homeless....they turn there backs. I was also nearly killed while trying to rest at night...three young kids nearly killed me, as they thought it would be fun to hurt me. Why? Why does this happen? Why does God allow some to suffer so much?
And for those of you who will say "homeless and on a computer"...i'm at a library...the only place i can get peace during the day...and also use the computer and read the news papers...in hopes of finding work.
Please...if you ever have the chance to help someone who is homeless and hungry...do it...you have no idea...how much you can lift someone from the lowest place on earth....BEING HOMELESS

I posted a question asking for senior project ideas last week, received a few helpful answers, and finally realized what I want to base my project on.

In order for me to graduate in June, I have to have a senior project completely. I have to have 30 hours of work, a mentor/expert, an issue that can prove to be controversial in some way or form, and I have to end up writing a research paper, etc.

I finally decided that since I plan on attending art school after I graduate and it's a strong point of mine, I would like to do something ART-RELATED. anything art. anything involving art. but it has to be artsy.

PLEASE GIVE ME IDEAS!
i really, really need help asap.

thanks for any assistance<3

Conflict between the known and the unknown has often labelled many a man insane. As we came towards the abounded asylum we all felt a mixture of seduction and repel. The image of decay tormented our imagination with fears of ghosts and terrors. Yet still our egos pumped desire and excitement through our body at the prospect of a challenge.


"Its huge" Scot said with excitement raising his eyebrows.


Built in the early 1900's the building had kept all its original features. The manor like windows with the chapel on one side and the morgue on another. To us the building was not just sand coloured bricks and red tiles it was an emotional playground for us to explore.

Why do I always hear negative stuff from Americans trying to criticise the Chinese government, when our country has been peaceful and developing at a very fast pace all these years, whereas the US is having wars and trouble everywhere?

I just don't understand.
Why do they call us axis of evil, when the government is trying to develop good relationship with most countries now.

Why do they call us bad human right? when we didn't have any invasion against other countries, and most citizens in mainland, China are happy with the laws and regulative system?

Why do they say we are a threat, when we don't spend more than half of our budget like some country into our military expense? and when we haven't invaded anyone all these years?

Why do they say communism is bad, when it is working very well in China, and the overall development of China is thriving under the communist system?

Why do they say communism never works, when any idealism can't be 100% achieved, includin democ.

It's they who rush into print in response to questions the understanding of which is so far above them that the humorous undertones are quite beyond their reach. How dreadful to be like them!

I need to know what colour everyone would call this. I know everyones monitors would see it differently but anyway.

When will the day came that we can all meet in peace
For the unprivelaed beings who live on the streets
For the teary-eyed parents standing at their child's grave
Because overseas fighting took more than a few days

When will the day come that we can finally see
The sun rise up and actually feel free
If the American Dream is really true
Then why hasn't its promises followed through

When will the day come that we can sleep without danger
When violence won't be the only thing known to a stranger
When will the day come that we can sleep without fear
When we can get through that night for this day to appear
