~80 Percenter~
Quote: "I’ve always thought of myself as an 80 percenter. I like to throw myself passionately into a sport or activity until I reach 80 percent proficiency level. To go beyond that requires an obsession and degree of specialization that doesn’t appeal to me."

Connecting the Dots: Sir Kenneth Robinson speaks on the future of design and academia.
"Design has more bearing on industry and commerce than one might think. The education of future generations should place more emphasis on creativity and a successful integration of design thinking into these arenas."

While {innocently} checking out creative(s) websites...a habit i picked up from way back paid off. I got here: Hi-Res and viewed the source code and voila ! I found an interesting {albeit short} story. Enjoy:
" Dali established four major artistic themes, which would form the core of his work for the rest of his career: masturbating, enigmas, Gala, and melted clocks. The images were produced using what he called the "paranoiac critical" method, which Dali explained as a "spontaneous method of irrational knowledge based on critical and systematic objectivation of delirious associations and interpretations."
The paranoiac-critical method was simple. The artist tricks himself into going insane, while somewhere deep within remembering that the reason for the insanity is to create a great work of art. Dali chose to do it the hard way -- by actually going mad, rather than simulating madness through chemical means. "I don't take drugs. I am drugs," he once explained.
Happy New year everybody...i finally decided to start blogging.I still can't figure out the compulsion to just keep writing stuff (I guess it keeps a lotta people from blabbing on and on)...well, I have been getting loose tongued these days and eroding my famous 'cool' exterior.
I hope (sincerely) that I turn out good contents though...Keep your fingers crossed...and re-visit my blog.
Thanks for stopping by.
Ciao
