you can not develop modern-ism, only its pre-cursors

So it’s AL­WAYS the same
They ALL say every­thing is sub­jec­tive now didn’t they?

In the past they were all re­li­gious. So now I want them all to say every­thing needs to be art.

The cas­tle Neuschwanstein and the ro­man­tics and art nou­veau al­ready dealt with kitsch.

It wasn’t de­vel­oped prop­er­ly and de­grad­ed into cos­play and role play, and the con­cep­tu­al evolved over it and won.

Both kitsch and con­cept run dead.

To get per­pet­u­al­ly more irony out and more beau­ty into so­ci­ety should be part of the œco­log­ic and æs­thet­ic re­al­i­ty. To keep craft­ing and fight­ing our way out of the ul­ti­mate deficit which is
MOD­ERN-ISM
to be not­ed min­i­mal­ism and con­cep­tu­al­ism, and irony.

In a world where there is no con­vic­tion, the ma­te­r­i­al goods kitsch and con­cept be­come the only rel­e­vant ob­ject re­al­i­ties, the only things we can de­vel­op and de­bate on. For that you need to per­ceive the whole of the past 200 years and re­de­vel­op it.

With the irony that all that mat­ters in life is re­al­ly war and re­li­gious dog­ma, and there is no oth­er point to it.

We now need a plu­ral­ist con­cep­tion of æs­thet­ics, liv­ing and com­pos­ing in our own world, where it is ridicu­lous, we craft it and grow more se­ri­ous, where it is con­cep­tu­al, we can use dec­o­ra­tion and allegory.

In the math­e­mat­ics of im­ages feel­ing a deep­er per­spec­tive of melan­choly, hate, art, etc, we are pro­vid­ed our only mean­ing. It is this or insanity.

We can build all min­i­mal­ist can­is­ters and have sim­ple posters in­stead of paint­ings in it, stuff it with our own in­ter­ests, drink beer and eat piz­za, ba­si­cal­ly every­thing else would be con­sid­ered kitsch.

If you have this for every­one, it’s the only mean­ing, and even THAT is ul­ti­mate­ly kitsch.

So where­as you can laugh tak­ing beau­ty se­ri­ous­ly. You may laugh at piz­zas and beer ba­sics just as well. We are ridicu­lous yes, we are liv­ing, we are not in phys­i­cal tor­ment or despair.

Hence a re­build­ing of æs­thet­ics and rit­u­al un­der the whole lib­er­tine irony that all is use­less is the only way out.

Com­pos­ing the use­less is ef­fec­tive­ly æs­thet­ic and an act of pure con­scious­ness. To be alive with­out be­reave­ment is an artis­tic state. To sur­vive it with­out the need for po­lar­iza­tion or ni­hilism is not easy or im­pos­si­ble with­out art.

Schopen­hauer said the so­lu­tion was art, Ca­mus said the only philo­soph­i­cal prob­lem was sui­cide, they EVOLVED the prob­lem and this led to
MOD­ERN-ISM.

But both life as sui­cide and con­tem­plat­ing it is art, as it is life.

You can not develop
MOD­ERN-ISM,
you can only take a step back and de­vel­op the pre­cur­sors to
MOD­ERN-ISM,
treat them in a dif­fer­ent way.

Not just plunge into the cliff of ni­hilism like they all did, and de­con­struct the whole phi­los­o­phy over and deep­er again.

That re­li­gious dog­ma proves to be the only sen­sa­tion of truth a per­son has is ab­surd, Kant said the ONLY thing we know is the ob­ject to a subject.

But we ba­si­cal­ly now know of kitsch and con­cept. An al­le­goric mean­ing, or a min­i­mal idea; syn­the­sis and ac­cep­tance of both is key. In­te­gra­tion of tech­nol­o­gy and idea into a sol­id, not kitschy æsthetics.

Or at least a new course of kitsch, robed in more clas­si­cal substance.

We eman­ci­pate all the sub­jects as we can talk about the forms now op­pos­ing each oth­er. Ar­ti­san re­al­i­ty op­posed to the re­al­i­ty of ma­chine-made and sim­ple idea.

FIX IT THEN. ANYONE?

some­times i don’t know what the de­bate left right is about.
We ’t need the left right debate

WE NEED ACTION!

And I say I hate hy­per­ci­vil­i­ty and mass men­tal­i­ty as it is ob­vi­ous­ly just a RE­LI­GION, every char­ac­ter and per­son­al­i­ty mankind pos­sess­es was al­ready raised as an aris­to­crat in some form or man­ner so every per­son­al­i­ty can be a king, a monarch, a no­ble, a deca­dent in some form or man­ner – be it some­times sin­is­ter or per­haps deca­dent – even if hu­mans are USU­AL­LY deca­dent of some sort.

BUT WHY IDEN­TI­FY with ‘the work­ing class’ or with ‘the civ­il ma­jor­i­ty’ or with ‘the mid­dle class’ – it’s re­dun­dant, out­dat­ed, and ter­ri­bly embarrassing.

If that’s your play, I want to be la­belled a men­tal pa­tient and I wish and will con­vince you to do the same with your messias.

Flom­mist Aey­lyeaelle Ell­he De El­len­deh is a ne­oro­man­tic and neosym­bol­ist artist and philoso­pher, stud­ied sculpt­ing at The Roy­al Acad­e­my of Dec­o­ra­tive Arts of Antwerp Bel­gium, He de­cried ac­tu­al­ly hav­ing fall­en in love stand­ing be­fore the Psy­che of Leighton in Lon­don, hav­ing cried over the Sleep­ing Beau­ty by Suss­mann hell­born and hav­ing spir­i­tu­al re­li­gious af­fec­tions for the Sphinc Mys­terieux by Charles van der Stap­pen. Dec­o­ra­tive sculp­tor and Au­thor of a neosym­bol­ist mythol­o­gy on Kant­ian per­cep­tion, on the imag­i­na­tion, in­spi­ra­tion, art, deca­dence, es­thet­ics and pas­sion, hate, mis­an­thropy main­ly. Heav­i­ly in­flu­enced by Huys­mans A re­bours and Schopen­hauers refuge in art as Sades will to free erotics. He in­vent­ed the Eif­fel tow­er sev­er­al times the size of the cur­rent one in paris to launch trains into space in an art nou­veau way. He in­vent­ed can­dles on re­mote con­trol. He in­vent­ed a game of chess with over 200 pieces per play­er and in an en­tire­ly clas­si­cal and de­scent set­up. With a line of Bish­ops, an Army, an­gels, boul­ders, with tow­ers that need to be de­fend­ed for­ward to launch the boul­ders, with a court, and a high­er court with Elvin, Elvin King, Em­per­or, Em­press and vam­pire of melan­choly and a vam­pire le­gion. He is a self de­clared mad­man and of­fi­cial­ly de­clared in­sane by the state of Bel­gium deu to his ro­man­tic up­risals. De­sign­er and ar­chi­tect of the fu­ture city of Anae­htheana, which is best de­scribed as the most beau­ti­ful and lux­u­ri­ous place ever de­vised, with the con­crete bridges done again in mar­ble, a wild zoo where the high­way is now. And a for­ti­fied vat­i­can in­spired wall for a le­gion of Joans of Arc he is try­ing to call. Among that, he is call­ing upon all ar­che­types cur­rent­ly in cos­play goth­ic and mu­sic to build, among oth­er things, a Vam­pire Lane with goth­ic schools, goth­ic mu­se­ums and goth­ic lounges and palaces. And an Angh an­gel fortress. It is his one and only and fi­nal mis­sion to re­place all com­mer­cial bill­boards with ro­man­tic and aca­d­e­m­ic paint­ings.
