“The creator lives for his work. He needs no other men. His primary goal is within himself. The parasite lives second-hand. He needs others. Others become his prime motive. The basic need of the creator is independence. The reasoning mind cannot work under any form of compulsion. It cannot be curbed, sacrificed or subordinated to any consideration whatsoever. It demands total independence in function and in motive. To a creator, all relations with men are secondary.”
– Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead

“The work to come, for we philosophers-to-come, lies in describing what will transpire globally in terms of individuation, whether this will be the individuation of geometry, the individuation of art, the individuation of physics, the individuation of the living, the individuation of nations, technological individuation, or psychical individuation in the Freudian sense.”
– Stiegler, The Magic Skin
I’ve improved a bit since my first try, I like this picture a lot. It reminds me of Waking Life. I took it about 4 years ago… or more, I can’t remember. In any case, the quality was horrible, but I liked the idea. I’m so glad I kept it, the edited version turned out better than I ever expected.
Kelly McKernan: “These scenes often comment on the operating consequences of idealism and fantasy due to naivety and youth with two opposing forces at work: natural inclination versus cognitive reasoning.”
“This is something that I’ve come to terms with myself – letting go of being a conceptualist and admitting to up front that I really just enjoy the act of creating. ” from her blog.
I like the eclectic feel of these labels, they’re kinda like patches and picked up things. Download the vectors here.

I especially relate to I think I secretly hate my cat (since we’ve had to keep her indoors 24/7).
