Paintings, photography, aesthetic objects, beautiful communication, and anything I consider to be art, artful, artistic, artsy or whatever.
Art is subjective. It is a quality of communication can be contributed to by the viewer through empathy or agreement with its creator.

This NASA video shows the Earth through the “eyes” of a combination of satellites that measure and record various parts of the electromagnetic spectrum and are above or below the visible spectrum of human eyesight. This enables us to see a much more complete image of of the interactive currents of weather and other atmospheric phenomenon. NASA claims the video (from 2006) is “evidence” that global warming is real and the aerosol pollution from Asia is responsible. Of course they don’t mention anything about the pollution from the US, or the influence of HAARP to artificially control weather patterns! The imagery is fascinating, with or without the “agenda” of corporations and governments who hope to profit from the spurious mythology of “global warming”.

“An early description of the way contemporary culture is now full of re-creations and themed environments was provided by Umberto Eco. In a brilliant essay, Eco saw that we create these realistic fabrications in an effort to come up with something that is better than real — a description that is true of virtually all fiction and culture, which gives us things that are more exciting, more beautiful, more inspiring, more terrifying, and generally more interesting than what we encounter in everyday life. In his description of Disney, Eco also saw that behind the facades lurks a sales pitch. Put these ideas together and you have a succinct characterization of the age, which is forever offering us something that seems better than real in order to sell us something.” — Umberto Eco (born 5 January 1932 — ) is an Italian semiotician, essayist, philosopher, literary critic, and novelist.
