| (in way of a tribute to) The Great Grand Master of The First Renaissance - Who might enjoy such a board if he were still with us today. He'd certainly be impressed by The Internet's inspirational places where One can LOL and keep it centered in the groove with all the charts alerts im's & whizbang shimmers popping in clockform surrounds @ periphery. Can't you almost see Leonardo in that giant purple velvet smock and black velvet hat with the quiver of quills in the band... blasting his favorite canticles & tarantellas... wearing those famous amber beads the size of golfballs for decoration and function as a particulate attractant by virtue of static electricity - Looky now The Greatest Artist is hollering MMWWWW00OOOOOOOOOHAHAHAHA!!!!!! Because When The Time Is NOW To Push The Button On A 30 Point Harvest on the 9 o'clock chart at the first point drop of The Divine Proportion % # ... The Button Is Pushed NOW !!! Methinks we know whose treating for rounds @ The Priory tonight! Back To The Future -
re: This Board
Artists - share your artwork if you want to, get tips and help on materials, sources, ideas, shows, great art-related links, talk about art, write stories, share ideas, methods, new styles, copyrights, insurance, commissions, business, philosophies, etc.
Inventors - share your inventions if you want to, ideas, and/or fascinating inventions, links to great inventions of the past and present, latest inventions by others of interest and perhaps fabulous value (TICKER??) Talk about solutions to problems, model making, patents, stories, half-baked discoveries, suppliers, sources, models, marketing, etc.
Discussions on the psychology of creativity, Jung, stories of the great and of all artists and inventors, history, one's own means of access to the muse, etc. would be fascinating.
Of Course, good stock steers and dd and news are always good!
Format - If this board grows big, there will be many varied interests here. For the sake of keeping it organized and easy for everyone to find their own interests, let's try to always make a subject header when possible (WATERCOLOR, INVENTION, ??PATENT??, re:PATENT, SPINOFF DD, LOL, etc.) And - please - about implants/url's/animations etc. ... AVOID placing that here. Links are good. Eyes are sensitive to visual surprises, especially when concentrating on watching charts and numbers and tickers.
Ambiance - If there's any investment site where we could achieve the good and generous and intelligent and hilarious fellowship of a community of artists at an exciting show opening, or inventors at a convention somewhere jazzy, it would be right here on SI. Aiming for making money and having fun in The Studio, with the charts and tickers and good art stuff all right there at our fingertips, is What It Is. Witty and hilarious talk and chat and jokes are of course the style here. You needn't be a professional or even a hobbyist to like the board and post. Creativity is for everyone, and if you're interested in learning how to make stuff materialize that you thought up on your own, this is a good place. This Board is what Leonardo would have dubbed "A Gift" !
NO-NO's - no wmds or anti-humanity stuff art or inventions or ideas unfit for broadcast in these times, no bum steers no bad vibes no politics here either. NO awards NO boos NO public judgement calls on anyones work or ideas (PM them), NO ranking, no busting chops, no repetitious trivia to annoy our intelligence. Undesirables will be shown The Eighty-Six Button Of Course the above paragraph does not pertain to YOU !
You might THINK TWICE before posting an idea or invention or artwork or technique or new use of materials you'd been keeping to yourself. and then.... if you do post it.... keep your fingers crossed ! it's all in the timing, "They Say"
BEST WISHES TO ALL, AND GOOD LUCK !
