People often, mostly artists especially the painters and the writers they have a strong intend of fictionizing the world. Fiction as in creating their own characters, stories, places and representing it to the audience. But what if it happens like this, being fiction became the new trend and people find it comforting and merging the reality into it, then what happens to the struggle, the pain, the emotion, the void of emptiness they feel in the existing world where they were born and brought up by their parents?
Suppose waking up and you are like what a character from your novel and creating your own struggle, pain, emotion, or even the void. Then it will be alright to clarify the distance between the difference between the fiction and reality? Then it will be the more like the stability of feelings that are maintained by the cycle of gain and losing the grief.
Reality runs in grief and so nobody likes it and people like us the artists find the comfort in the books. I am declaring each one of us the artist here because the one who not only just perform but also even understand the art is an artist. And the reader, the actor, one who finds the meaning what is inside the painting or what inspired the painter to draw this is an artist for me. Even the philosophers they are also artists not because they tend to clarify the meanings in the society but also tend to change it from the very start to get a fresh reboot.
And I guess, in today a times reality really needs a reboot. Because as I said, reality runs only in grief and if the people who are not grieving either they are busy in corporate or runs like a puppet and nobody takes the art seriously even if they are creating a masterpiece that is just a mere simplify object for them.
One can make the fiction world like a metaverse but they cannot feel that and artists like real artists I repeat, painters, musicians, writers, actors they live through the art, they live inside the art and they have an art that inspire people to be a part of fiction that originates from reality and also feels like the reality and one might be interested in taking part of it.
The trends like Ghibli art produced by artificial intelligence is not alright. The metaverse replacing the touch of that genuine bond between people is not alright. The e-book, audio book factor is not alright. Okay at first, if we talk about the Ghibli trend, it is itself an animation the originator is also an animator is known for their hand drawn animation style but still they need computer generated imagery for the finishing work.
People who watch anime, almost every one they have been famous for only Ghibli art itself and performing well the art have been in trend and now artificial intelligence has taken its place and will slowly replace the artist. Or the metaverse, the computerized universe where the we can relive the fiction universe while being actually living in it and sense everything but we forget it is just a replica only and no matter any metaverse can came or how far people can be distant from each other, it cannot match the actual happiness we get in real to meet others.
One must be an emotionless guy but will cry while seeing somebody die not only just to react but to become one of those guys who do care for real, who do perform every ritual, who do believe if the beloved is gone, they will come back in any form and it will take a proper time but metaverse can make this happen?
No, I guess. As so far it is also made by human only and the human had done so much coding to make it look like a genuine reality and I am glad they have been passed in it but does that match the reality? Not at all. It can create our daily life being hosted from house to job or vice versa. It can show what happens to us when we are assigned to do the work by our seniors or what food is being made at our house but does it can match our sudden quick change of plans? Does it ponder the late night drives or the unplanned moments. Even the question does not arrive here.
And speaking of publishing our art work, it has been a hex in today’s life. Not talking about multiple scams that happen to people but the different modes that are not useful and also replacing the originality. As I am a writer so I will speak about the novels first. And when I talk about publishing the novel one must has an idea of publishing as a paperback or hardcopy as the work must should be printed on papers and is in our hands.
I have been modified this idea of mine from a very long period of time and in between I also used to think technology should be prioritized and I still think it should be but before you judge me I repeat only useful technology shall be prioritized like someone having a website to show their true potential of art and if someone is against even of this technology then we should learn from our ancestors how they used to get famous. Kindle and Audible is a great start of converting something new and the creators might not have a bad intention but the original should be a genuine one.
Reading books in the format of electronic mode or listening through them like an fm radio, it is not the thing that we find to be changed. Think of the actors, who perform in theatres. They sell tickets to have a bunch of audience to see their content and later going them on the ott platform, will they be alright with it. Absolutely, no.
See, having the films or series at ott platform is a different thing and a big thing for someone’s work but the one who is performing at the theatre live will that emotion, an application can give. The exact emotion at the right time. We can buy subsection of the ott platforms and renew it and watch nth times the show but the one who wrote the play, to bring actors on stage, make them rehearse the acting many a times and playing the act live in front of the audience, isn’t it just the nostalgic part going back to our schools?
The main part is if we have to change the reality to fiction, then we do not have to create a wormhole. We just have to understand the difference between the reality and fiction, which is grabbing our soul everywhere and understanding the art. If we are performing or shave to be the part of that fiction and not just some other fiction created by technology.
Somehow and moreover the one who did not want to use any technology to promote their work they also are bound by the strategies that one shall has to be used but for a good cause like for selling their art for a good price is a better option than to make out your whole work with the act of artificial intelligence in the name of technology. That is not just the insult of your art but also the defamation of you also for framing your art via using technology.
The one who plays the most number of the victim card are often use the technology to do their work and funny thing is they use the same technology also to hide what you wanted to create. Your art is not some homework of your school or assignment of the college that you can just copy or paste or just use a typical programme to utilize the skills.
Your art deserves lots of research historically either watching documentaries or reading some books but it has to be the some amount of research mostly like what thirty percent of it and the other seventy percent your very own point of views. Either you paint you draw renaissance and do the research of the old sake historical events. If you sing, inspire with the notes of ancient musicians that actually not suffered neither struggled but crucified themselves for their music.
And if you act or dance penetrate yourself with the most not so forced full actions that you learn but seek the moves and dialogues from your soul and sacrifice it with the true form of masterpiece onto audience that they don’t get tired while clapping for hours. Which may not make you an overnight sensation but your original work will be remain a cult classic and people will watch it over a period of time. If there has to be a purpose behind your art then that would be claim the best of you standing in front of others either explaining it or presenting your judgment with the skills that no one have the audacity to make you out of that state where you already belong.
If someone is listening your judgment because of your art then it is the most coolest thing for you because that is not the one of your identity but that is your identity which may console you even in hard times without feeling disappointment and awkwardness or even embarrassment either with others or making a fool of you.
And this is how you will bring the worthiness in front of the other eyes that they listen to you or you feel comfortable around them because that is what a respect is shown from both outside and inside and when it is delegated you know what you had started it is came down to fulfill at its highest.
