Community Center Class- Philosophy 101- Thursday evening

"Today's class is inspired by the fact that I looked at an influencer's Instagram for four seconds and got annoyed," Jaye began when everyone got there. "So, welcome to the class on aesthetics. Now, that's derived from Greek, from terms meaning thinking and perception, the branch of philosophy is about beauty and taste, and now it's kind of used as a term to describe what your grid looks like, which bothers me on principle.

"And I could go into the whole of who thought what about this and the universal signatures in human aesthetics, but last week I got the impression you all cared less about that and more wanted to talk about it," she went on. "Know that this applies to everything: art, landscapes, people, writing, math... seriously, people include math in this. Let's not talk about math, though, because I don't want to."

This was way more than Eleanor had prepared herself for the day.

"Uhhhh. Well. Art is just... Shirt. I don't know. Isn't art just a product of creation?"

She blinked a second. That was a coherent thought. What the hell, Eleanor? Did I smoke something before coming here? Or did I have an edible?
