Before we begin, I’d like to lay a little ground work. This
series of articles is not about the word “Art.” It is about something in the
universe for which, I think, it is suitable to use the word “Art” as a name.
This is an important distinction. It is possible to have conversations about
words, and they can be very interesting and beneficial. But, when we are using
words to their purpose, we are trying to look past them in that we are looking at something else through the use of them. This means that
the definitions I give of “Art” here may not be the only suitable ones, but I
intend them to be useful ones,
because I intend them to point out and describe things out there in the
universe.
