HIGH VERBAL WITHOUT HIGH SPATIAL IS A PROBLEM HOWEVER
there's considerable overlap, Jews in particular have an issue with a big difference (relatively big)
but still, overlap
EXPLAINS JEWISH PREDOMINANCE IN TECH AND MATH
Jewish art doesn't tend to be very visual
BUT LESS SO IN LITERATURE
INTERESTING
One would think you need visuospatial for math
(NOW TRYING TO THINK OF EXAMPLES OF JEWISH ART....)
YES
BUT MAYBE NOT
but its actually verbal intelligence that deals with a lot of logical processes etc.
IF THERE IS ANOTHER WAY TO HANDLE IT
AGREED
LOGICAL CONSISTENCY
When western art became more jewish, post emancipation as the intelligentsia became jewish near the start of the 20th century and beyond
there is that big jump away from classicism, drawin gud etc.
not sure I'm down with every assertion
but the basic concept of jews in art -> less visual more "conceptual" art
my own theory is visuospatial intelligence is an important factor in music composition
I'm sure you've had some similar ideas re: music as shape in musical space
I THINK SO
ALTHOUGH SOMETIMES IT SEEMS MORE LOGICAL/MATHEMATICAL
AND THERE IS A STRONG EMOTIONAL/REALIST COMPONENT
I DO NOT RECALL ANY STUNNING JEWISH VISUAL ART
INTERESTING
IT SEEMS TO ME THAT MODERN ART IS DEMOCRATIZED ART
it's ultimately a complex phenomenon, but just in terms of the basic substrate of "good melody"
AND THEREFORE IS INHERENTLY ANTI-TECHNICAL
SORT OF LIKE PUNK ROCK
is it democratized in actuality though?
you would think it makes art "accessible"
GOOD MELODY REQUIRES UNDERSTANDING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN NOTES PLUS THE ABILITY TO LISTEN
but ultimately it stays quite elite
IT IS DEMOCRATIZED IN AUDIENCE
no I really disagree
BUT THERE WILL ALWAYS BE ARTISTIC ELITES
MEANING
modern art is for modern elites
