Art => Artist, Artisan, Artificer

After a long writing drought (mainly due to busyness (business) but then the subsequent ‘I don’t have time to write a post’ excuses), this blog has appeared dead. Rest assured, active work is continuing. I’ll have some exciting posts coming up, but before then (see, I don’t have time to write currently), I am going to drop riddles and quick questions — I’ll call these ‘stub posts’ — that hint at future content or orient your mind toward an area I will soon discuss.

Today’s Stub Post:

What separates an Artist, an Artisan, and an Artificer in the expression of an Art into the world? How do resonance, operators, and transforms inform this process?

Accompanying thought:

“It is the job of the artist…to think outside the boundaries of permissible thought and dare to say things that no one else will say.” — Howard Zinn

If that is the job of the artist, what is the job of the artisan?

UPDATE: The post that completes this stub post is PatternSmiths, Static Pattern Engineers, and Architects.
