beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
It is difficult to say that it is just ugly or that this work is frankly bad (if a person made it from the heart, not to order or for the sake of money or fame). It would be more precise to say “I don’t quite understand it”, “it’s not to my current taste”, “it’s…

Freedom and limitations
Absolute freedom is an illusion, like if transport in the city moved as everyone wanted it to – spontaneously and without rules. In movement (and life is movement), reasonable restrictions on the flow are necessary, you can’t just let everyone move freely and chaotically. The same with aesthetics and ethics where limits are needed, they…

Look at unknown…
Look at unknown people with kindness and neutrality, like you would look at your future doctor. It is important for us to maintain peace and balance, ethics, aesthetics, decency… Until you see for sure that the person in front of you is an asshole, give him some trust, at least a little. But never fully…

Fool-proof protection in economy?
Democracy is a protection from too much power taken by a fool. Politically… But what is our moron-protection economically, socially? What defense is there against evil oversized corporations and their dumb managers? After all, random still rules the human staircase, and not the best people come to huge money and resources economically, but most often…

Ethics
One of the main objectives of ethics is to provide a neutral (efficient) space (reasonable morals) of interaction between particles-subjects. But: “The first rule of ethics is this: If you see a fraud and don’t talk about the fraud, you yourself are a part of fraud. To be nice to an asshole is no better…

My experience
Eat small portions. Work smart, not hard. Work everyday, whenever possible. Enjoy real rest like sleeping or sport when tired working. Consume less. Boycott crap products whenever possible. Spent more energy on quality work and ruthlessly cut unnecessary. Gentle your tone. Talk, walk softly. Take your time, you don’t know and can’t know what will…

Fear of death and Greed
Humanity’s two biggest, fatal misconceptions so far are: 1. Fear of death (In truth, dying is easy, and death helps us live better, without fearing mistakes, especially when we’ve lived honestly and without greed) 2. Greed (What’s the point of consuming so much? You’ll die anyway… and don’t forget that we’re just fruits on the…

Not restrict bad but let good come over
Moving “In Reverse” is weakly effective, I’m talking about prohibitions, restrictions and such. It’s better to substitute with the superior, don’t restrict bad but replace it with good, give ways.

Drowning…
Avoid drowning in the daily stream of social networks and news. Today’s mass media and most journanists or celebrities’ approach of kill-but-get-profit-or-promotion is a headache.A once a week or so run through the main signal sources is enough. Analyze seriousl, fearlessly, openly. Less is better. Real information, no buzz. Know what is signal and what…

The importance of your workplace
Do not underestimate the importance of your workplace, it is necessary to organize it as thoughtfully as possible. If you feel it’s important, be honest with yourself and secure a private space (if funds are not in excess – better to rent a space not in the fanciest neighbourhood, but with a separate office). Invest…

Aesthetic fields, concept
Whether subject wants to or not, it always functions and translates a code of aesthetic and ethic fields. Usually already charged with the energy of other fields. The energy finds, regenerates and transmit itself in the code. Fields have boundaries of intersections and audience-subjects of the field – for example, the stylistics of y2k, hairy…

About my work ethics
You might know I usually publish an album per month and a post per day. It’s not that hard; I don’t rush myself, I just follow properly established habits for things I like to do. In the morning before breakfast, I work as hyperfocus; after breakfast, I work as mittnetworkmusic. After lunch I maintain “office”…

Open source and proprietary software: when is each appropriate and a little about the excess of money
On one hand, open source is always better; you know what the program is doing and can improve it… But on the other hand, developers need to earn a living. Indeed, it’s ridiculous to work for free, as one can easily die of hunger, and motivation… Programming can bring pleasure in itself, but it’s certainly…
