Resources
My intention with this resource section is to provide information and links that may be useful to any individual, person or artist looking for encouragement to continue to wage protest against the mechanization of human experience, a world where efficiency, speed, and utility have been prioritized over meaning, where thought and labor are reduced to data, and where technology threatens to flatten the depth of human existence. I claim no ownership over any of these materials. I simply believe in the necessity of sharing these perspectives with those who might find meaning in their messages and strength in their words.

The New RepublicAs society becomes obsessed with technology, numbers, and quick answers, choosing to deeply engage with art, literature, and human questions becomes a radical act of defiance.Oscar WildePreface to The Picture of Dorian Gray
1891Art, as Wilde positions it, creates a realm of pure symbolic form where meaning is transformed into beauty, suggesting that artistic expression operates in its own space, independent of practical or moral concerns.
