personality

From my work “Flying Man” (F30 tempera)、part of the background

personality。Although it's not worth emphasizing that it's "unique"、However, it's not just Kintaro's candy; it's his "personality."。when working on a computer、Some people worry that it will disappear。Especially as AI becomes more pervasive.、I wonder if the presence of humans themselves will become less and less。

In the past, handwritten documents were the only documents available.。but、Some of them are too unique to be read.。I have seen Nichiren Shonin's letters in museums.、at a glance、For better or worse, I was surprised by the strong writing that made me think, ``This person is no ordinary person.''。When ordinary people began to communicate by text、Of course, the number of things that are difficult to read will also increase.。
The beauty of letters、Even if it means sacrificing one's individuality、The typewriter was invented with priority given to readability.、Eventually it became a word processor.、Currently, I can not only hear the buttons on my smartphone but also hear the voice properly.、It will be sent in beautiful letters.。
But、On the other hand, humans are also creatures that dislike uniformity.。For example,、font。easy to read、As long as it's easy to use, you might be able to do everything with just one type.、There are so many types that you will be surprised、Most people use them freely depending on the time and situation.。It probably comes from an instinct to convey emotions.。Humans have built civilization through communication.、The basis of that communication is “empathy.”、In a sense, it is natural。

Computer experts often say that ``personality is important'' and ``in the end it's all about who you are.''。The idea that computers ``eliminate one's individuality''、180It's the opposite。What does it mean?。If it's a word processor、same keyboard、Same software, same font、The text you type is different for each person.。It seems obvious, but、Can we say the same thing if we spread it across the entire computer?。I don't really think so。This is because there is a problem of getting used to it.。
When I first started using a word processor、There is no room for writing etc.、I'm doing my best just trying to master it.。``As I mastered it,'' my consciousness gradually returned to myself.、I think you are now able to think of sentences that are “your own.”。
But、How to “master” a computer、Frankly speaking, "impossible"。A computer is not just a tool。And updated daily、Rather than narrowing the gap between me and myself、It's opening up more and more。The day when you can master it will never come.。

After all、Even if you use a computer、その一分野だけたとえばグラフィックアートならそこだけそこに特化して「使いこなせ」るようになり初めて「最後はその人らしさ」と言えるだけではないでしょうか「コンピューターで自分の世界が広がる」は一種の幻想ではないのでしょうか自分が知らなかったできなかったことをコンピューターで知ることができやることができるその意味では確かに「自分の世界が」広がったように感じるでしょう。But、それ以外のところではむしろさらに谷は深くなり断絶は厳しくなってくるのではないでしょうか「その人らしさ」の伝わる分野は一層狭くなり時には極大化されて「その人らしくない」その人らしさが広がっていくのではないでしょうか

“Twilight” in production

“Twilight” in progress Tempera

when creating a work、I've always thought it's better to be able to express the concept of a work in just one word.、We sometimes request this from our students as well.。Sometimes the title and concept are similar.、In many cases, the angle of expression is slightly off.。For example, the title is "Apple"、The concept is "Juicy":Like "juicy"。

The tentative title of this work (I'll add it just in case) is "Twilight"。The concept is "endless solitude (or gorgeous solitude)"。banal、Is it? In any case, the theme is "loneliness"。

That must be a lie! ? I can almost hear you saying that (lol)。surely、The image of the flashy sunset (?) at the top is、Even if it is somewhat related to loneliness.、The pop color △ on Apple、"How does this relate to 'loneliness'?"、It's going to erupt。It makes sense。
but、This is a difference in how we perceive "loneliness".。for me、``Loneliness'' is directly connected to the ``objective fact'' that ``all living things must die.''。"Death cannot be shared" = "loneliness" can be rephrased.。
on the other hand、Apart from that logic、I think everyone feels the feeling of being lonely.。It depends on each person、depending on time and place、Although there are many differences、I think the essence of it is a sense of loss.。I have too many things、There's nothing I really want。There are many places I want to go、No matter where I go, something doesn't satisfy me。meet a lot of people、I can have fun though、I myself have gone somewhere, etc.。
As a way to make that gap feel bigger、I think it's flashy and glamorous.。of course、This is because I want to use beautiful colors first.。

"Twilight"、It's a pretty cheap title, though.、For now, “words”、It should evoke a sentimental feeling of loneliness.。Ideally, the content of the picture (shape, color, composition) should betray its banality.。Maybe this work、I think this will be the last work I present in Ginza, Tokyo.。without neatly summarizing、completely destroyed、I wish I could sell it as it is broken.。Listed in mid-October。One of these days、We will inform you again。

one day、At Engakuji Temple (watercolor)

Cloudy sky for the first time in a while。It's mostly sunny for the past week、It was a hot day every day。How about that?。Although I've gotten used to the heat a lot.、By the evening I was already tired、I can't work or study at night.。Days like that continued。It's dawn today、The forecast was for rain、As expected, it was not a “missing shot” but a “empty fall” situation.。Although、I'm happy even if it's cloudy。

What I find attractive is、Is it still “passion”?。Anything is fine.、“Passionate” rather than mechanical。when you feel it、I feel like I'm getting heated up by that aura.。it gives me strength。

If it's in me and what I make、how to make it attractive、There's probably no need to think about it.。do you have passion、How passionate are you?、Maybe all you have to do is honestly reflect on that in your own heart.。
