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

is reasonably compelling

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

not for ordinary people

THERE IS NOTHING THERE WHICH HOLDS BACK A PERSON FROM APPRECIATING OR PARTICIPATING
