Anyone else creating to take their mind off of things?

These are fast and scary times we are living in. Covid 19 is certainly been the topic of most conversations, with good reason, but day in and day out it can really drain you. I've been trying to take a break from everything by making music/video stuff, I'll post a little something below, if anyone else has been doing the same I would love to see what you are working on. Stay safe everyone, we are all in this together and we can see through this.

Always...but more so now, been playing alot of guitar in addition to my vaporwave habit. I just got a phase shifter petal so I've been playing around with that. Luckily I went to the guitar shop before nonessential shutdown and loaded up on new strings and cables.

Thats dope! What kind of guitar do you have? Have you thought about incorporating it into your VW music?

    Logic as a discipline has developed A LOT since aristotle developed the syllogism. basibally, logic used to be "if it follows these rules, then its true" but since Boole, but more importantly Frege and Russell, logic has become more or less a mathematical topic. In math, you gotts sit doen with yoyr statement and proove that its true using theorems and reasoning by reference to rules. Hegels logic on the other hand has a more mystical bent (not exactly mystical, but vauge enough to where the term fits). Logic for hegel is much more about a vague sense of the flow of reason in the develoent of historical time. It sounds really cool and nice and deep, but the more you dig into it, and try to put it in toyr own words, the less sense it makes).

    This is a really good point and well-put. I just think it's missing that a lot of philosophy is concerned with truth being self-evident enough to prove it with simple thought, though I wouldn't call Aristotle or Hegel simple thinkers. It's an intuitive exercise as much as it is an analytical one.

    I suppose the core issue is that it creates a problem of unfalsifiability given the nebulous nature of the system. But it's worth pointing out that while logical rigor is important in mathematics or in, I don't know, nuclear physics, human beings forge the enormous, overwhelming majority of their beliefs either from appeal to authority ("experts say" or "this person I trust argued that", etc) or simply from induction based on personal experience and Bayesian updating of prior beliefs. There is the question of what is logically rigorous and then there is the question of what is useful to Man in understanding the world around him, and the two may not always have the same answers. That's not an endorsement of Hegel from me, simply an observation that I feel is often missed in these discussions.

    i think primitive is more accurate than simple

    This is why I hate calling concepts "Hegelian" or "Nietzschean", it makes it seem as though truth revolves around dead men

    It's like saying the wheel is primitive, or the column. Technically, yes, but so foundational that the basic shape is still in use today with little modification to its essential form.
