Welcome to life, machines of living

If you think of us, we are such strange creatures. We are biological machines, created only on the purpose to live and get the most out of it.

We are intelligent creatures, we have learned about the world we live at, we have deduced many of its properties and we have made our own forms of life ourselves, still fairly inferior to ourselves, biological machines.

I was thinking a few days ago. Did you realize why is it that your calculator does math faster than you but can't do stuff half as complex as you can do? because it's hardware implemented. We have logic hardwired to a very good processor and a pretty huge memory. But our math isn't hardware implemented. It's software implemented. And poorly implemented, by the way, our algorithms are terribly slow and inefficient for the most part, wasting most of our cache memory (processor speed access memory) and resorting to a whole set of inefficient steps.

Yet, our bigger abilities are not hardware implemented. We have a lot of abilities but they are things we learn and learn to perfect the algorithms we have done for them. We do because we love said activity God knows why.

We are machines especialized on especializing on something and becoming proficient at it. Surviving is one of our objectives but as society has made it this far, surviving is not a priority for everyone.


So, what have you learned of this world, biological machine?

What do you conclude after having spent X years of your existance on this place? do you ever think? Do you act on impulse? do you ever wonder how you work, biological machine? do you ever wonder why you love, why you do art?

I have.

And while I have still not found an answer, I simply noticed enjoying the process has pleased my search much more than the worry of finding the answer, since I get more busy passively seeking the answer and enjoying what I find than if I would right now just find the ultimate answer. Do you get to enjoy life and your search? do you even search? what do you seek? what makes you happy, biological machine? and why do you even seek to be happy? or do you?

Why is it important to get your life together with someone if most people end up bad at it? why do you effort on actually trying to make it work? how much have you actually taken a shot at life and really tried to make something meaningful of it?


Imagine, biological machine, that this is the end of your existence and you write a book right now of all you have lived thus far. How much sense does it make what you just written? how much of a life have you made out of your existence, biological machine?

As long as your circuits work, how much more do you expect to do? do you intend on ending your life looking back and thinking 'that was one hell of a ride' or do you just not want to think about it?

Worry about others' problems, worry about politics, discuss about stuff but in the end, all that really matters is what you have made of it all.


What does this all mean, you ask? I don't know. I simply believe it's interesting to look back and forth and back again and think about where the hell things stand.

We are the most intelligent creatures on this planet and perhaps on the whole Universe and you, biological machine, what have you done of it?

Welcome!

Ahem. Hi there, welcome to my Deviant Art page.

I'm a 2D and 3D artist (most versions of 3D Studio known to man, Photoshop, Flash, Maya, Z Brush).

As well as website designer but you won't see much of that over here. If it is of your interest, you may visit [link] where I work.

I've dedicated most of my time developing 3D art skills and I've relatively recently (three years) picked up on 2D art and I think it has come to a rather decent point at which I can call it reasonable to post it over here :)

I personally dig the mix between the two styles. A sort of balance between both worlds where things can settle.

Please do feel free to make any comments or critiques to any of my artwork, from 3D pieces to 2D to scraps (which are conveniently hidden away from the main gallery).

Nobody cares

This is a sort of rant that goes for all the people out there, struggling in an effort to become a good artist, and, still not being there, just don't get much at all, simply because they have not yet achieved this something. Simply because they have not yet reached the heart of people, people who see through their eyes and understand with their minds, people who look and don't see.

This is the big majority of people you are likely to cross. People just don't understand, like the tale of The Little Prince, people just don't understand. They live on their own world and it's just... sad.

Nobody really cares. Nobody really understands what you do or what you intended on doing. If art is an expression and nodody understands what you are saying, then why keep doing it? why keep speaking in a language nobody understands anyway?

But nooo... you gotta love it anyhow. You gotta keep it going and you gotta love doing what you do, express yourself in this language nobody understands and then dwell on it, keep extending it to new realms which nobody understands either, doing more and more things who nobody understands and nobody cares about.

You gotta love art to really be an artist. If you don't, you just will never progress because in the bottom end, nobody cares about it.

Loads of stuff coming up!

I've been developing a lot of both 3D and 2D artwork as of late and I've been making lots of it. Some I'm very happy with, some that I'm not as much but I believe talent comes with practice (yes, it does!). so here I'm making more as I go.

Hope you like it! and do feel free to post comments or critiques :)
