What Dane Olsen makes

Topics art, education, self-education, philosophy, creativity

Art/Education Dedicated to exploring the truth about art and education, and how it is vital to ourselves and society. All it takes is one great book, one person, or one map to encourage us to follow our interests and goals. I want to explore the utility of art, beauty, and true education—especially at a time when higher education and artificial intelligence can push us toward dependency and linear futures. Art and education open our eyes to alternative paths that allow us to pursue meaning. Art is not merely decoration, and education is not simply accreditation. Both are among the most influential forces in shaping an individual’s life. I want to understand why that is, and what would happen if we started taking these things seriously in a time when ignorance is rising.
