The Rights of An Artist ----------------------- The pro-eradicacy of "love" in a system designed from freedom-based instincts, when an ideal in our own D. O, Independence is written with the words like "inviolate" and "inalienable rights" -- we mean uninfringeable by the means or offenses of another without need. The selfish self-interpolation of energy from one person into another, is a main-stay way in which a vampire is usually recognized. In spite of how medieval the remearkably common trait in America, I see too much of this today. For the problem of continuing a need to feed off Americans with addictive products, basically worthless commercials, and totally stupid TV stations, I know the energy and information of "words" at least deserve more credence than most humans can offer, in their organic, breathing hosts of voice, without product. The backing of nothing, save for the needs and energy of others, when a vampire is recognized, is usually a narccistic and defensive take on pride. Why someone needs so much from someone who is already sovereign, independent, and guardian over their own power, we should all be able to see the common sense in not stealing from a fair and reasonable artist, who uses their power and instinct measurably. I think that my "use" of power, the internet, music, and software is reasonable. I don't over-extend my power, nor my ability to fight injustice, and I am a reasonable person. I've said things, and I've done some stupid things, but at the end of the day, I've got a lot of good work behind me. I remark that I think to look on or pursue an innocent victim who is an innocent victim (usually) of his own art, and only his own art unaffected and untainted by the will of another, is the freedom to be operative through our art, and not the means of a fiend. I think that people should look up the words they are using more, and try to focus on the real definitions. People lack the understanding to know what they are saying, as opposed to what they mean.. Try harder to work for a good person, if your own leader or force of authority is corrupt. People should support atists, and no artist should be taken advantage of. When we used our own voice, product of our own body, or our own very two hands to channel the work of the soul into paper or a masterpiece of sound, we shouldn't have this abused. People who abuse music are abusing energy. Since energy is a basic manifest reaction of waves interposed with one another, and the atmosphere could be considered a wave, the internet has so many websites, it might be considered to have an atmosphere of its own collective persona, and general feelings of the populace. Even this atmosphere can be abused, but that doesn't mean it should be. The waves that we are connecting with are energy, whether you deny this is up to your own pathos, or ethos, or bios with reality, lacking in cosmos. I think that all we all exist in space, no matter what, and space and time are one. The effort we put into our music should not be denied the credit it deserves, nor should the effort we put into the internet itself. BLS
