@NoeticJuice thanks for sharing.

I think i have a better way to describe what I’m seeing, it’s been discussed much when describing christian movies or right-wing art. Trying to sell an on-the-nose message, often leads to more energy put into the message than the art-making part.

Pick your best christian movie and compare it to a solid blockbuster... No comparison imo.

On the flip side, a lot of christians honed the craft of music making, so there are some pretty solid christian songs, but even christian music has faced the same critiques of what I’m describing.

@BlooDrinker420 this is an old comment but, how the hell do you listen to Mozart’s Laudete and not feel extreme peace, tranquility, or a divine pleasure?

I’m no classical snob, but if you can’t enjoy that, it’s kinda like pop music did to human musical pleasure, what porn did to sex!

@NoeticJuice and that’s the great artist’s tension, isn’t it. What creates a true masterpiece — how can we transliterate what’s in our head into the thing that changes the world.

It plagues the artist: “how do i make that thing that I can see perfectly in my brain???”
