Born under Saturn
According to Born Under Saturn, over the course of the Middle Ages, a new paradigm was born. Before, in the ancient world, artists functioned anonymously. Artists were seen as craftsmen who produced works, often in a fairly formulaic manner, for specific religious and civic purposes. In the Middle Ages, artists as individual creators with unique visions became more important in the culture. Gradually, the reverence for the 'magic object' became transferred onto the artist him or herself.
There are some perils to this paradigm. Firstly, it tends to isolate the artist from any sense of community. The technique, craftsmanship, and assumptions of what constitutes art are disengaged from the production of the work. Artists are seen as 'natural' and either born or not born, rather than created. This mystification of the character of the artist can lead to certain persons being shut out of the possibilities of generating art and gaining the right to create art because they are excluded...
Even if the artist may come up with his or her idea sitting in a state of solitude, the artist is still the receptacle of cultural ideas and conceptions. Also, the reception of the artist is highly culturally 'bound.' What we think of as genius is impacted by what we learn is 'correct,' artistically speaking, and although some artists may move our culture forward in terms of its ability to conceptualize art in a different fashion, there is a discernable progression from one idea to the next. Nothing comes from nothing. What would seem like a problem, or simply a mess to a 19th century viewer might look like great art to a 21st century gazer, simply because he or she had been schooled in the artistic observation techniques of the 20th century movements of Cubism or Abstract Expressionism.

Future Food lust advertising design: Applying the concepts of 'luxuria' and 'chastity' When comparing cars such as Hummer and the Prius, the contrast between the two brand identities seems obvious. One is a large, gas-guzzling vehicle that denotes the purchaser's wealth. The Prius is a small, snub-nosed vehicle that apparently proclaims the user's interest in environmental sustainability. However, beneath the surface, there are even more complex issues about how the vehicles

Future Technology: The University of Phoenix Workplace & Classroom In 1976, Dr. John Sperling founded University of Phoenix (UOP) and made a commitment to provide working adults with local higher education options at convenient class times. Today, students study at more than 200 locations, as well as through online programs available in countries around the world. Not only will adult learners attend classes that are convenient for them, they will earn
Predicting the future is not easy, but using past and current trends is the right way to go. At least that will allow those who are making the decisions to be sure that they have considered everything in the best light possible before they choose which direction to take.
