Artistic

[View page without inline references]

I'm not a very artistic person in the usual `classic' sense, ie. I'm not a good painter, I do not make good music [see music] and I do not dance well. (I'm quite interested in photography [see photography], though, although I'm not very good at that either :-) ) However, I find that in almost everything you do, you can add a little touch of passion and creativity, making it at least close to artistic. It might sound weird, and it isn't really easy to explain.

However, you can also combine other `virtues' with creativity, thus making it a real creative work [see Work]. A quite good example of this is demo programming [see demoscene], where programming and maths [see school] are combined with a little dash of creative sense, and you get something quite cool out. It's a bit like programming [see programming] today -- you tend to require fewer and fewer people who only know programming, and more people who know programming and something else. Creativity has to be combined with technique somehow :-)
