Quote From Samuel Johnson
I am always sorry when any language is lost, because languages are the pedigrees of nations. -Samuel Johnson, lexicographer (1709-1784)

Delineations Between The Aesthetics Of Math And Art
I would like to invite discourse into the construction of these ideas. Everyone is invited to comment. Making these delineations is not an easy task and I feel the statements may evolve. I will address any comments to these statements.
I feel it is very important to understand the differences in the disciplines of art and math so that we can join them in the most creative, clear and meaningful ways.
Delineation #1:
Mathematical truths are discovered Artistic truths are mediated.
Delineation#2:
Mathematicians generally agree on what is mathematically correct. Artists generally have no idea what is artistically correct.
Math illuminates the supportive skeletal structure of thought whereas Art illuminates the metaphoric wind, which blows through that structure.
Science reveals the body of GGod and Art reveals GGod's mind -- or is it the converse?
Delineation#5
Pure Mathematics has no expression for poetic metaphor however; it does provide us a structure that can be used for it.
Artists have an insouciant tendency to get lost in their imagination Mathematicians have an attentive tendency to map their imagination
A mathematical theory seems to come in a flash of intuition before the final product is rigorously constructed. An artistic theory seems to come much after the artwork that has been constructed in a flash of intuition.
Delineation #10
Artistic creations are uniquely invented by individuals.
Delineation #11
Mathematics, among other things, is a language.
Art, among other things, uses language.
.
In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it’s the exact opposite. —Paul Dirac
.
Art is the expression of culture.
Pure mathematics is independent of culture therefore, cultureless.
Some of these were published earlier in Bridges proceedings 2002 “Sentences on the Aesthetics of Mathematics and Art” page 256

Unlikely 2.0
This is my first Korean artwork
Dog Dream = Irrationality / Importance
The poem is in the form of an orthogonal space poem
Check out the lastest Unlikely Stories. My latest two pieces are among some wonderful new art/poetry work.
