"Incognito"
The Human Brain is a very mysterious piece of a puzzle that forms the human body and psyche. It controls and senses things that we are not yet aware of how and why it can do the things it does. I thought it was interesting that they did a study on men looking at photographs of women with some of them having there eyes dilated. Gaging there response as far as who they were attracted to most was interesting because a majority of the men chose the women with dilated eyes and had no idea why. The theory being the brain was able to detect the excitement of the women based on eye dilation. You have to wonder, how does the human brain see what we don't, its apart of us right? If it can sense excitement through the eyes shouldn't we be able to answer verbally why we were attracted to a certain feature in a photograph? There is so much that is not understood about the human brain. I have to agree with how we run on autopilot a majority of the time. I know i've had a number of times where i'm walking or driving somewhere and kind of zone out and still end up where I want to go. Theres a lot to consider when it comes to how our minds work and we have barely touched the surface.
There are so many different forms of art out their and you can use any one of them to express yourself, to show who you are as an individual. These many mediums can be used to capture a viewers attention and draw them into a story the artist is trying to tell. They are all so different in style but similar at the same time because they all require a similar start, an idea. An idea that starts to take form until it turns into a work of art. Sculpture, painting, theater, architecture and digital art are all an extensions of the mind that creates in those forms. I like having the option to learn new ways of creating something. I think trying many different ways to make new art keeps you from being stagnant. Even if a piece doesn't turn out the way you think it could've you can at least say you tried it and possibly say you enjoyed the experience even more because you tried something new. You can't be afraid to try new things or to fail at something it only hinders you. I like living in a world where there are so many different kinds of art because it always keeps me on my toes and wanting to improve in my own situation. Art is Universal no matter what the medium, some are just more common in different parts of the world. They all speak to us and try to tell us something, we just have to take the time to stop and listen.
