The Journey to Enlightenment for Artists: 1/ This is inspired by /creatureworld and explores how artists can find authenticity by embracing reality. 2/ Society often projects illusions of success, causing many to chase unattainable ideals.

1/ I'm an Artist: My perception of the world is shaped by the idea that reality, as we experience it, is more of an illusion than an objective truth. Our brains construct reality based on fragments of sensory input, not a complete reflection of what actually exists. 2/ What fascinates me is that our brain doesn’t really distinguish between what’s real and what’s imagined—both are processed almost identically. This reinforces my belief that reality is something we actively create, not just something we passively witness. 3/ The "solid" world we see is actually energy fields and probabilities at the subatomic level. Particles, exist in multiple places at once until observed. And that's a mind-bending idea! 4/ What we think of as stable matter is just fluctuating energy, creating the illusion of solidity. 5/ As an Artist & Technologist, I’m not just interested in mirroring the visible world, but in creating art and technology that reflects this "Illusory Perception of Reality" shaped by our minds.
