The goal: Not to be a slave and prisoner to another platform, but to become the master of your own domain, your own platform. This is the impetus to creating this website, this blog, and now arsbeta.com
What does it mean to live in a post-monetary society? My thoughts:
A thought about economics and wealth: How do we generate wealth without exploiting the labor of others? Some ideas:
Let us think: Perhaps when we consume the ideas of others, we ain’t looking for some ultimate ‘truth’. Instead, we are seeking ideas which resonate us and motivate us to action and activity.
A new future: Either you’re free or a slave. And let us not be fooled; even the rich can be slaves (many of whom are).
A look into my brain:
Test it here.
Nothing is pure. Purism is for suckers.
From SUITS:
There is always an admixture of something or another.
A thought: If you shoot a street photograph of someone you know, is it still ‘street photography‘? I think so!
What is the maximum human life span? It seems for men around ~117 years. Women is 122 years. I personally aspire to live to be 133 years old (in hyper health and vigor). But… we should be grateful towards death. Why? Knowing that we will die … we actually have gratitude towards life and we…
A blog is a web-log of your online activities or life activities. Better thought: Think of a blog as a live-stream, or a life-stream of your entire life.

Of course Michael Jordan is the greatest of all time. My thoughts after watching his documentary (Last Dance):
Photography entrepreneurship is the goal.
UBERMANYou don’t need the xanaxThat is facts
The goal: To create BEYOND yourself. Beyond your life, your life time. To strive to make a monument more enduring than bronze (Horace).
When in doubt, blog.
Don’t entertain any ideas beyond the flesh.
Race is a topic I am fascinated about, because it makes no sense. Aren’t we all ‘the human race’? Upon philosophizing on this, this is my takeaway thus far: Race ain’t real, but morphology is.
Vlog in the streets.
The best life: working for yourself.

Who is programming the algorithm? Are you programming the algorithm, or is the algorithm programming you?
What is the worst ill to have befallen new digital creators? The obsession for views.
The goal: Self ownership through entrepreneurship.
Strive to become a great individual. The great individual: severe, harsh, selfish. Focused on his or her own self development.
Photograph today as if you were to photograph for eternity!
Not only muscular gains, but also brain gains.
What’s the point of life? Eternal development. For you to never stop changing, evolving, augmenting yourself and aggrandizing yourself.
One of the arts I have gained mastery over is blogging. How and why? Let me explain:
Vermeer as a great painter to study. Why? He used a camera obscura to paint his composition and perspective lines. So in a sense, he was hybrid photographer AND painter.
Your goal as an artist: to paint your emotions into your art work. To impute your energy, soul, and life into that which you create.
The principle of life.
