Not to be ruled by form: Nihilist and Artists
Not to be ruled by form
Unlike the nihilist who presumes an entitlement upon the moment for the action,
for the artist it is the engagement of both mind and emotion, contending with whatever
forms from and of which they would have to give shape to. The nihilist is more self-centered
on how they are affected than the artist who is more focused on the change in the conditions
of the perceived cognitive space.

For both, the surrounding conditions are a platform still incomplete and insufficient
for their aesthetic or operational utility. The nihilist wants to be the performer for their
own sake. The artist sees the external as an extension needing alteration so to be enhanced
for its sake, than primarily for the artist's sake.

In either instance, the external is not something to be accepted as is, but a starting point
for what can be. Forms, generally, are the first draft of objective reality, not the immutable,
literal definition for reality.
