I've changed my blog to express my feelings, and the feelings and ideas of others on the effect that the Electric Universe and Project Thunderbolts have had on personal Art being produced by an individual, or trends in the Arts that may present an growing awareness of our Electric Universe. I'll kick things off with a recent post that I shared.
Some thoughts on the Electric Universe Creative Arts Facebook Group. Most people are unaware of the Electric Universe. Questions that come up are: How is EU Awareness going to affect a particular artitst or group of Artists? For instance, how will a Universe without expansion and the Big Bang, impact explosions, a Universe based on Electrical interactions be different and present itself differently in Art? What areas are most likely to inspire the artist? Life Sciences mirrored in a 3D fractal scalar Universe, Truth and Paradigm change, Myth and Legend, or another of the many disciplines and areas covered by the EU? Also...does the artist have to accept all or just perhaps a part of EU perspective that he or she is interested in? These things can be presented through music, writing, dancing, the visual arts and much much more. I certainly feel the inspiration and can explain it to others. One thing, though, you should not consider it to be didactic...the inspiration should be energized by the EU, and everyone has their own style and views on Art. An example: Should the endless battles, explosions, and militarization of space be a staple in contemporary Science Fiction, with the plot merely serving the effects? I say no, but the way to prove that is to create the art itself. I am just finishing up a new book that will place that idea in an unstated perspective. Jules Verne started out very excited about Science in the first part of his working Artist's life. In the second half, he became very critical of Science, and some of his overlooked works from that period are just being translated, and published for the first time! I just gave a lecture at the NAJVS (North American Jules Verne Society, of which I am a member) Conference in Phila. Pa. on Jules Verne. I walked out at the end of the day with some new insights, and perhaps I can share them from time to time.
