It’s easier to sensationalize the claim that there’s, “a universal moral core that all humans share,” (Stahl 06:20 – 06:25) rather […]

In the contemporary domain of art philosophy, T.S. Eliot, Audre Lorde and Walter Benjamin express many written thoughts that’ve got a lot of relevance to modern art. Three art collectives (“cults”) that produce modern art that reflect their ideas are the Chapel of Sacred Mirrors (CoSM), Meow Wolf, and Banksy. In their work, for art […]

An existentially philosophical difference between truth-seeking and narrative-creating is that, as one takes formative aspects of their individual identity and ethics acquired through time, they then apply or assert truth values to real-life situations in order to justify their relative cultural identity using internalized philosophical or sophisticated means based off of sensory or external inputs […]
