[JC] I agree, but I associate the romantic with art. Is that wrong? [Arlo] Again, depends on if you're in the problem space or the solution space. In ZMM, the "romantic" was associated with "art" because "art" was artificially divorced from reason. So, yes, within the problem space of ZMM, the romantic perspective was associated with aesthetics and beauty and painting and music.
In the solution space, however, this is very wrong. "Art" is "high-quality endeavor", and applies equally to the former distinctions of romantic and classic. In this post-ZMM space, it'd be more accurate to 'associate' art with Quality. "High-quality" and "artistic" become synonyms.In this space, 'art' is as much a part of reason as it is painting. Indeed, the distinction between 'classic' and 'romantic' is broken down entirely. 'Writing a novel', 'repairing a motorcycle', 'building a rotisserie', 'painting a watercolor', 'performing a symphony', 'constructing a metaphysics', 'dancing around a maypole', 'doing differential calculus', ALL of these are 'art'.
