Creativity is not innovation but the the key to effective alternative affected by the way rules are defined. Natural as breathing and just being yourself, mightier than the board, essential to success. Power that is knowing a state of mind is in the desire, expressing itself through you. Endless process, spice of life, proportional to lack of sleep, the key to a brighter future, 'everyone's enemy', the gift of love, more important than knowledge, marked by the ability or power to create to bring into existence different light, allowing yourself to even to hurt when transcending time. Creativity is the key of my life, flowing through me, essential to realizing my dreams and goals, allowing me to make mistakes. It is a field, the tendency to generate or recognize ideas, seeing what others see and thinking what no one else has though at the same time making the complicated simple. Exciting, available everywhere, contagious, helpful, my most valuable asset. Mind is a myth and table of contents, a terrible thing to waste without. Valuable timeless fighter faster than the eye. It is illustrated by the use of it in many slogans such as "a mind is a terrible thing to waste" and "mind over matter". It is always working and recording mental image pictures. Mind is about conditional predictions, beautiful when like a still lake, enemy when without fear. The expression of the brain and the body separately or in a combined state, the key to complete leadership, a valuable investment tool, going to order a herbal viagra or partake in a big investment opportunity. Mind is just an analog machine, not in the head. Work is usually nameless, usually never done, powerful economic development tool leading to new employments in a daycare program for adults. Once upon a time a play, invaluable gift, love made visible, recently made simple with simple machines, actually a series of scheduled programmed operations fixed in tangible medium of expression. Work is generally marked for extinction. General Artist Statement: The conditions and means of artistic creation have changed drasticly through development of technology. Many artist today, me included, use of numerouse tech- tools and move to new virtual territories. New art genres are constantly formed in the digital sphera; fine 2D arts, digital art actictivism, webart interventions, new online visual arts and variouse projects. My digital works reflect my previouse stage with mixed media; not they are digital new media artworks, created mostly through individual creation but some are also part of collaborative projects with other artists. Web has become our main medium; not only for communication among each other the very medium of creation. However, the new media also has its limitations; such as modality of creating by tool tech- grade or availability, fear of virtual non freedom ( profiling, closed environments, controlling, subjection, discrimination...). Main reality moulder is Total merge of the industrial design, marketing and media, while Art becomes consumer hi-tech industrial product. As means,technology usage and accessability shows for what and to whom it serves, while the goals do not have to be ( but can be) always presented and justified. It is evil when the technology becomes the main tool and strongest weapon of the political and ideological propaganda and economic slavery.
