hello i am dik josef real name unknown. i am currently working on both a fiction and nonfiction project, however they are grossly interrelated. inspiration comes from incompleteness, the unknowable, the elsewhere, but utilizes social action and progressivism as the only way to deal with these ancient factors.
i am enamored with the concept of creativity, how culture is a constantly collective, creative process and is inherent and essential for our survival. whether dealing with situations, attempting to understand them, or creating them, our actions today,
translated from thought, will constantly give way to new forms and concepts tomorrow. however, many ideas require enablers, require extensive personal effort. the point of my nonfiction book is through collective action, utilizing the immediate world or the web to find people with similar interests and ideas, we can create, change, make the world a better place via grassroots efforts agreeing on what is better and how to make it so. everyone utilizes a degree of creativity in thier daily lives, some more than others, some value it more than others. however, what the common definition of creativity is by no means covers the scope of its existence or implication.
wikipedia is a perfect example of a collaborative effort that requires creativity in organization, presentation and evolution of articles. anyways i discovered wikipedia a while ago and i love it. i have contributed ever so slightly to a list of clear channel owned stations, and intend to contribute more, as soon as
i begin to understand the scope and breadth of the wiki-community.
i also had an idea for "wikimentaries" where information from articles and media from the commons can be brought together in
a collaborative process to create flash or shockwave or even video documentaries on different topics, especially those of current interest. just an idea..
