"someone who has nothing better to do"Art vs Science
Who ever said that Art is easy-peasy compared to Science? Better think again.
Science is a series of laid-out facts, constant information ready to be applied and used by its practitioner. In many cases, people need science for basic survival, and one cannot live without its technological facets. In Medicine alone, Science has proved itself to be an indispensable option for human survival. Its practitioners are sought by people, to find cures for their ailments, to find solutions to technical problems.
Science is an acquired skill which cannot be practiced by many, but is limited to those people who are only qualified and certified to perform its operations. Science is objective. There are many solutions, but it boils down to one answer, and that achievement of the answer defines your success, no matter how much time you've spent on it.
Art on the other hand, is opposite. Art is not defined in a box, its objectivity is at blur. Art enhances humans' appreciation of life, but does not necessarily affect survival. Art is subjective, it seeks to give pleasure to the people who experience it. Art is not the master, art is the follower. Art bends to the cultural norms of every society to be considered acceptable in its realms. Art practitioners also possess a defined skill, people may appreciate, people may not.
Art is difficult, and not every instance does it satisfy those who experience it. It's a matter of preference, culture, or even mood swings. Art wishes to please, but success is achieved only if a spectator appreciates your work. Other than that, unlike minded people will hate your work, not because it is universally accepted as ugly, but because they think it is. Every art is arguable of its acceptance in every angle.
Forgive me if I sound too scholarly, but this was just an insight I was thinking earlier this morning as I was going to school. Last Monday, we received our plates for Film 110(Photography). Everyone in our class got a grade of 1.5 above while there were two of us who got 1.75. The other girl who got 1.75 was the one who took that specific picture whom I think was aesthetically beautiful than everyone else's. And I wonder why is that so? Not that I'm bitter about my grade, but as I begin to realize things over and over...
In a world where there is an increasing mindset of practicality at the whilst of a booming population who demands survival, who is likely to win the competition?
Art is subjective, I seek people, I will plead for people to appreciate my work.
Science is a skill, a degree that sets you apart and qualifies you to perform a duty where the people will be the one who will seek and plead for you.
Unlike Art, Science cannot be a luxurious hobby.
These thoughts cloud in my mind, as I was thinking about transferring and getting a medical-related course. These thoughts move me more in pursuing that decision.
