Hi Platt,
I agree with so much you say in your last post that i have not pasted it but
rather wish to indicate that others should simply read it.

All cultures worship beauty in one way or another which leads me to feel
beauty is the aesthetic, background unconditioned continuum from which we
select what is useful for us? The Sistine chapel was drawn from beauty and
embodies it at the same time as you say. To try and capture this for
ideological purposes may be clearly designated as evil as you also point out,
and i would agree with that - quite horrific.

On the creative front, i dabble in melody when the muse visits. I wish i
could paint, as i like water colour painting as a medium a great deal. I like
impressionist art because for me it suggests without delineating, if that
makes sense!

Peter.
