I have aesthetic thoughts whenever I’m fulfilled, complete, and selfless; metaphysical thoughts when I’m empty, sad, and helpless. Today was a metaphysical day!
Went to a talk by Professor Levingston on philosophy of music. Aestheticians, professors of aesthetics, distinguished professors of aesthetics! Fuck them all! They over-intellectualize art. They want to define terms. Art is about feeling; philosophy about thinking. One should not mix them together. I would much rather want to feel beauty than to define it.
