You can incorporate things like this in your everyday life. These are just a few of the positive things in the vast field of cultural appropriation. Now, we get to the negatives of culture appropriation. I could honestly write the whole paper about this subject, but that’ll be too easy. When a style of a culture is appropriated, the people of that particular culture tend to have overwhelming feelings of anger and the thought of having been used.
Explain the criticisms of the Cosmological Argument. The Cosmological Argument has been criticised time and time again, but i am only going to go into two of the most well known criticisms. Hume criticised the link between cause and effect and says that just because we have an effect that doesn't mean we have to have a cause, an example of this is the universe it is an effect but it doesn't necessarily have to have a cause. Hume also said that our senses can be wrong, meaning the way that i may see something can be different to how someone else may see the same thing, and Hume said that when we see an effect it is instantly in our human nature to make an assumption about the cause. This shows that the argument is subjective and not solid
Dezueze is more critical, and claims that she will reveal the true effect that precariousness, as brought on by these unique pieces of works, has done and ultimately will do to this specific genre of art. I am not a proponent of her idea that these pieces of art are “precarious”, however I do see them as being very reality shattering for people who may have thought art was limited to things outside of
Many will argue that pride can cause a person to become blind, not literally but in a sense that they do not see things the way the should, or as most would view a situation. Its almost as if pride has the ability to alter a persons view of reality, causing them to believe that they are better than others, entitled to more, and some may even believe they have the power to punish with impunity. A perfect example of this is illustrated in Edgar Allan Poe's short story "The Cask of Amontillado" . Pride is a high or inordinate opinion of ones own dignity, importance, merit or superity ; the state or feeling of being proud.The Cask of Amontillado is about two men Montressor and Fortunado. Fortunado has been insulted by Montressor and now he is out for revenge.
If one hadn’t developed an appreciation for contemporary art, experiencing his work will have completely changed your view. Quoting Ed Pien, “Some may find my work scary, but I’m hoping that it’s not so dark that people can’t see the work itself… What I’m interested in, is ghosts. Whether they’re real or not, it’s interesting how they impact us. We’re complete opposites, they’re not here, where we are. When we enter their realm, we’re the other.” It’s through his vision and continuous exploration, that one can explore fears, joy, and unsettling thoughts of life and death, history and current society.
April 11, 2012 The Moment In-Between We are in a world of the known and the unknown. Some of us tend to stick to the known for their own reasons and some would prefer to understand the things that we can only imagine. In the world of art we see many ideas and interpretations of both. When coming across a piece called Vessel by an artist named Sarah Wiseman, I found the feeling of being in-between the known and unknown. The artwork had subjects that looked very familiar but took on a form that left room for the imagination.
My ethical blind spot is my belief that motive justifies the method or overconfidence in the process. I rely too much on the system of ethics and to do what it is supposed to do, but I can overcome this by thinking outside of the box and understanding that the system itself is imperfect. It is designed that way intentionally so that it can be adjusted for each individual that follows it. The system is designed to bend not break so that we all come to the same result we just might take a different path to get to it. For example, copy right laws if you use an artist song to make a track of your own but it has pieces of their song in it you must give them credit by posting a disclaimer with it or risk being sued.
Of the remaining criteria we might consider, only sentience―the capacity of a being to experience things like pleasure and pain―is a plausible criterion of moral importance. Singer argues for this in two ways. First, he argues, by example, that the other criteria are bad, because (again) they will exclude people who we think ought not be excluded. For instance, we don't really think that it would be permissible to disregard the well-being of someone who has much lower intelligence than average, so we can't possibly think that intelligence is a suitable criterion for moral consideration. Second, he argues that it is only by virtue of something being sentient that it can be said to have interests at all, so this places sentience in a different category than the other criteria: "The capacity for suffering and enjoying things is a prerequisite for having interests at all, a condition that must be satisfied before we can speak of interests in any meaningful way" (175).
When we're speaking with someone, there's always a thin line that's easy to cross. Whether it's taking a joke too far or touching a awkward topic, there are always boundaries, that if crossed, relationships can get destroyed. But do the same rules apply to art? Is there a line that shouldn't be crossed or a topic too controversial? I argue that having the ability to be controversial is what makes art, art.
Too often, though, our bond is over shared pain . . .” Beauty and looks are, in general, a shared burden of expectations between men and women. I appreciate the way in which Bordo uses work and pleasure in constructing her essay, although I do not feel that that style made this essay any easier or harder to read than others. The pace of the essay moves slowly, but it is directed in a powerful and meaningful way.
