The Omnipresence of Art
00:22:52
Speaker
great Great discussion a lot of critical analysis and movies and a lot of fun check it out Next up we have from the hallowed launch pad of Cape Canaveral We have a space weed with a little bit of thoughts about art and then onto their track Bong lizard welcome space weed here we go
00:23:23
Speaker
One of the main questions we ask, and I know we started with this, about art. You mentioned some of your experiences with art. One of the things I was wondering is, do you have a definition of what art is? And Francis, if you wanted to start, just what your thoughts about what art actually is. That's really good. I think about it a lot, too.
00:23:55
Speaker
a lot of aspects to art. Um, but I think that it's also like a very prevalent and, uh, very important and also ingrained thing. You know, I think that it exists, uh, subjectively and everyone sees it all the time. And I think it exists objectively in the sense that it's like ways around. So you can't, you know,
00:24:24
Speaker
Yeah, the perception of it. Right, right, absolutely. It's like omnipresent, effervescent art is everywhere, you know. Whether or not you appreciate it or look at it, it's still there, I think. And I also think that it's like in a very experiential aspect of being human, like,
00:24:52
Speaker
If you enjoy it and you do see where it is, you can see it in everything. And then you like have a connection to it. So it's, it's an important thing. And it's, uh, what it is, I guess, exactly, if I were to put it into words is just, uh, observing the created consciousness, you know, in a medium. That's what I would say it is. And all right, Matt, what were your thoughts?
00:25:22
Speaker
What's not art is my first thought. Everything to some degree is art. The fork in my silverware drawer, there's three or four different kinds. Get them from Goodwill, just gonna lose them somehow. I don't know where all the forks go, but anyway.
00:25:47
Speaker
have all these different forks open up. Each one has a different like squiggly design, a slightly different shape and contoured like different length of the whatever the pointy parts of a fork are called. The prongs. That's good. All those things are different artistic choices. And that's just the mega fork that you take for granted every day. That's going to be like what's not art. Everything is. Some of it's way more intentional and highbrow or like, you know,
00:26:16
Speaker
banana duct tape and some shit and then there's the practical and then there's some space in between that I think is magic and all of it yeah I love that
00:27:18
Speaker
So...
00:28:06
Speaker
you
00:31:48
Speaker
Next up we have a track from a friend Greg Clifford.

00:33:01
Speaker
I call your name, but you don't recognize me Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
00:33:41
Speaker
you
00:34:04
Speaker
We're sweet and we've desired your hand. And you will run by an empty vessel drift from the coast.
00:34:34
Speaker
I knew it's not your fault But the thunder above Says enough is enough When it's breaking my heart
00:35:05
Speaker
about my love. Who are you?
00:35:39
Speaker
I'll forever miss you I'll forever miss you I'm very happy to arrive back at the well-bred Mongrels with this cover of True Faith.
00:36:30
Speaker
I feel so extraordinary Something's got a hold on me I get this feeling I'm in motion A sudden sense of liberty I don't care cause I'm not there
00:36:50
Speaker
I don't care if I'm here tomorrow Again and again I've taken too much Of the things that cost you too much I used to think that the day would never come I'd see the light and the shade of the morning sun My morning sun is the drug that brings me near To the childhood I lost
00:37:17
Speaker
Replace my fear I used to think that the day would never come That my life would depend on the morning sun When I was a very small boy
00:37:35
Speaker
Very small boys talk to me Now that we've grown up together They're afraid of what they see That's the price that we all pay Our valued destiny comes to nothing
00:37:56
Speaker
I can't tell you where we're going I guess there's just no way of knowing I used to think that the day would never come I'd see the light in the shade of the morning sun A morning sun is the drug that brings me near To the childhood I lost
00:38:19
Speaker
Replaced by fear, I used to think that the day would never come That my life would depend on the morning sun
00:38:52
Speaker
you
00:39:04
Speaker
I feel so extraordinary Something's got a hold on me I get this feeling I'm in motion A sudden sense of liberty For chances are we're going to fall
00:39:24
Speaker
You took my time and you took my money Now I fear you've left me standing in a world
00:39:40
Speaker
I'd see the light and the shade of the morning sun My morning sun is the drive that brings me near To the childhood I lost, replaced by fear I used to think that the day would never come That my life would depend on the morning sun
