Hey check out my friend network chicklets. Nice huh?
Well I like it. Just a note to say, if you want your site linked using those chicklets let me know so that I could make one and add there.

I wanna fill up left white space and don’t want to put another ad. Ads are ugly. I think those chicklets would go there pretty well.

Ok first and for all, this is not my shit. I repeat, this is NOT my shit and no shits were harmed in making this post.

I’ve been wanting to write about this for quite a long time but I wasn’t ready yet and waiting for the right time. Now that I got everything I needed…there you go…

Ooooh ooh, this my shit, this my shit [x4]

I heard that you were talking shit
And you didn’t think that I would hear it
People hear you talking like that, getting everybody fired up
So I’m ready to attack, gonna lead the pack
Gonna get a touchdown, gonna take you out
That’s right, put your pom-poms downs, getting everybody fired up

Right you guess it, I’m going to talk about shit.
Well sort of, not exactly…but this “Shit” plays a major role in this post.

A few weeks back, Min Thu invited me to yahoo conference with some of his friends including the guys from myothwelwin, shwenet, myohanhtun sites. We talked about our websites, blogging, technologies and just getting to know each other. One time in the conversation, this guy said something about we don’t have/talk about anything related to art on our sites. Another guy responded by pointing him that we have photos which could be counted as art. But this guy disagreed about photos being an art and only takes art as a painting or a design work. I did not argue with him since it was the first time to meet them and I hardly know about any of them. But I kept the unsatisfying feeling about his view on this term “Art” myself and thinking of doing some art related thing on my site when I have a chance.

Well, I dug up some stuff – my old drawings, lost color pencils, paper, crayons and lost inspiration. This is just an intro post for my coming art related section.
So what is art by the way?

According to wikipedia – ART!

By its original and broadest definition, art (from the Latin ars, meaning “skill” or “craft”) is the product or process of the effective application of a body of knowledge and a set of skills; this meaning is preserved in such phrases as “liberal arts” and “martial arts”.

“Art is commonly understood to be the process or result of making material works (or artwork) which, from concept to creation, adhere to the “creative impulse”

Defining art
There is often confusion about the meaning of the term art because multiple meanings of the word are used interchangeably.

So art can be anything creative, not only painting or designs but also include any other form of self express work.
So can I call the following photo an art? It’s not painting, nor it’s an imaginative sculpture. It’s a solid photograph of a pile of “Shit”.

Let me recall a story. Once an art teacher was showing a slide show of paintings and the following conversation is how I remember about so-call art over a discussion of grotesque painting and a snap shot photo.

Teacher: Is it art? Is it any good?
Student: No, I wouldn’t call it an art, it’s a grotesque.

Teacher: Next slide, it’s my mother.
Student: It’s a snap shot.
Teacher: If I say it was taken by ..… (some famous photographer name), would you call it art?
Student: Art isn’t art until someone said it is.
Teacher: It’s Art!
Student: The right people.
Teacher: Who are they?

…

Teacher: What is art? What make it bad or good or who decides?

My point exactly!
Who tells which is art or the form or the medium to be an art? I don’t know, do you?
So I’m gonna say that photo of shit is an art. Who can argue with that?
Think about it, look at it, pretty cool art to me. The texture, coloring, lighting, composition, the structure, the sensation … just perfect, and a great shot too! Bravo the photographer.

I take an art as anything that makes you go “hmm”, “Wow”, “auuu”, “ahhh” and stimulates you, no matter which medium they’re represented with. This shit definitely makes me go “Wow” so there it is – ART!

Anyway this about it for my art introductory post and hope to follow with some more inspirational shits later on. So still tune.
ShitPeace Out!

P.S: Anyone knows where I got that conversation from?
Hint: from a movie.

I just discovered the change in Bloglines feed management functions. They all Ajax now. Very smooth. Alot easier than before. Some of the functions you can do are as followed:

• single/multiple drag-n-drop folders and files,
• delete items by selecting single/multiple items and press “Delete” button.
• Ordering (A-Z), (Z-A) or manually
• Single-click to select.
• Click again to rename.
• Double-click to edit details.
• Ctrl-click to select multiple.
• Shift-click to select range.
• To reorder, drag and drop into place.

I also notice these days Bloglines feed updates are very fast and Rojo gone too slow for some feeds especially blogspot feeds. So I guess I’ll be switching back to blogline and see how things go.

PS. Oh you guys see my little logo at the right or my feed?
No icon yet, I think icons are only for those feeds with lots of subscriptions cos’ those are stored on Blogline server so they must have add them manually and not from favicon link…well me don’t know.
But I’m glad to see my logo(or whatever that is) image showing up there.

Hmmm for some reason my feed got error [!] message. I don’t know why or may be I must have done something wrong or… well just have to check this post got picked up there. If not then definitely something wrong with my feed.
