Postmodernism.

Above is a short animation about postmodernism. Enjoy.

Leonardo da Vinci.

Most think of da Vinci as an artist, others, a scientist; but in my view he was more of an idol. When I was young my grandmother bought me a 4 movie set on painters, some from the present, some from the past, all from different places around the world. When I got this gift from my grandma, my response was unenthusiastic, to say the least. But there were a few great things that came out of those movies, and one, was my discovery of Leonardo da Vinci.

To me, he was an idol, not in the way that I wanted to draw or paint like him, though that would be wonderful. But the thing that he inspired me most to be, was curious. Da Vinci had a constant craving to learn more. He satisfied it with his paintings, wrintings, inventions, and ideas.

In my eyes Da Vinci was a revolutionary, he had theories that were not yet being thought by people as a whole, he dug deep into ideas to find out more. He painted like nobodies buisness, and he is continued to be thought of as somewhat of a legend to the world.

Leonardo da Vinci is a huge influence to me, he in a way taught me to satisfy my curiosity and go far with my dreams.

Above is a one of my favorite paintings by Leonardo da Vinci.

2150 A.D.

2150 A.D. is a book by Thea Alexander. It has always been one of my mothers favorite books, and growing up she always told me about it, bringing up things in it, and telling me how it changed her life. I always wanted to read it, but she never let me, "it's too mature," she would say, "wait until you're older." Finally at the age of 15 I picked it up and decided all by myself that I was mature enough.

The book 2150 A.D is about Macro philosophy, and a new world. It was published in 1976, and takes place in two time periods. The first time it takes place in is 1976, and the second is 2150. The story follows a man named Jon, in 1976 he is a professor who has lost his leg in the Vietnam war. But when he goes to sleep in 1976 he wakes up in 2150 with his leg back, and a body of a man of 24. Through his journey in his dreams he sees a world, and a way of life that people in 1976 have only dreamed of having. There are no wars, no chaos. It's a utopia, and it works.

The thing about this book that changed my life, and my mothers, is that the ideas these people use to achieve the lifestyle most people wished we had, is that they are realistic. In the book they explain all of their ideas and they all make sense, and can be made real, you just have to take the time to alter the way you think and view things.

I recommend this book to anyone who 1) enjoys complex books, and 2) enjoys books that change the way you think. The only problem is, this book is terribly hard to find, and there are two versions of it. But if you have the time, I really do recommend it.
