INTEGRAL ART

Posted on Jan 11th, 2007 by Michael : catalyst-producer Michael

IS about making the RIGHT connections.


ALL artwork is initiated as an IDEA in the MIND of the artist during a fleeting moment of inspiration - which is stored as a set of connections in the memory banks of the brain of the artist - as the catalyst to a thought process which is always striving to be additive to the best of what IS - which then subsequently controls those parts of the mind & body which create the artwork - whether it be song, music, drawing, painting, sculpture, poetry , photography or whatever.


The artwork thus enabled - as a "reflection" of the appropriate combination of connections in the brain of the artist - which constitute the IDEA in the MIND -  is then conveyed through the "conduit" of collective consciousness to the "viewer" of the art - whose own brain stores its specific set of connections - flagged with approval & excellence -  IF - the positive and qualitative enhancement and evolutionary benefit of the ONE collective consciousness results.

My hand is entirely the instrument of a more distant sphere wrote Paul Klee ...
and Giacomo Puccini wrote ... The music of this opera was dictated to me by GOD,
I was merely instrumental
in putting it on paper and communicating it to the public.

Ultimate INTEGRAL ART is created by the artist who - is fully cognisant of the TAO of nature & the Great Spirit of LIFE - & is driven by the Vision of Godhead - for the entertainment of those who would experience the art - at whatever level of enlightenment they had attained -  such that the potential existed for the perceiver  to perceive what had been perceived by the artist - as ONE.

In short INTEGRAL ART is that which has been created by an artist - as  I AM what I AM as an extension of the KOSMOS which IS & ain't no ISer  -  who has primarily taken action in assuming responsibility for the art  of enlightened communication - has fully understood the need to transform information into knowledge, knowledge into ideas & ideas - through imagination - into the wealth of art  - & has finally committed to freely associate with others - in order that the artwork may be communicated throughout time, space & culture.

As Christopher Galtenberg has said elsewhwere - This is our mission as artists. 
Take quests.  Quest into new worlds.  Show others that they exist.


The very best example of a piece of INTEGRAL ART would be the 3D model of The Theory of Everything - which Ken Wilber has so vividly described as  " a bowl of spaghetti "  or the puke which results from  "swallowing a box of children's multi-coloured crayons".

Everybody is an artist.  
Free the artist within.  
Free the writer within.  
Free the poet within. 
Free the musician within. 
Free the martial artist within. 
Free the creativity inside you. 
Free the sculptor within. 
Free the photographer within. 

We are all these.    Play!

ALL THINGS INTEGRAL & the ART of INTEGRAL UNDERSTANDING are ONLY to be found within.

It is the responsibility of each and everyone of us 6.5 billion on earth today to seek that understanding and in so doing switch into the ALL INCLUSIVE global mind-set of the NEW collective.

A NEW collective of artists - in fact - cogniscent of the purpose of INTEGRAL ART & committed - from however small beginnings - to the process of acting as the catalyst - to enable the evolution of HOMO SAPIENS to the next stage of consciousness of ONE.

Amen Michael!

Yes! We are “on the same page”, as they say. Your blog is one of the highlights of my Zaadz experience, Michael.

Thank you for your recent comment on my blog. Seems we are doing our best to explain the unexplainable: Artistic Author(it)y

Incidentally, I looked up “explain” in my handy “Word Origins” book. “Explain” is to “flatten out and make plain”.  What that feels like to me is trying to reduce multiple feeds of 'live', sensory and spherical information into a two-dimensional, dead, gray pancake. Not very tasty ;-)

Artistic Author(it)y - INDEED

The ONLY channeling here - is which ONE the movie is broadcast on ! - but even Luis Antonio Gasparetto's perspective must be acknowledged - if we are to Transcend & INCLUDE
