We Make Money Not Art

I checked out this site recently, http://www.we-make-money-not-art.com/, and found out it's a blog created by young people like ourselves exploring the world around us through art, architecture, engineering, and design to show different aspects of it throught their eyes. As well as to show their interpretations of things and show sides of art one would not normally see unless looking for it. I particularly liked the site and Post Patman caught my eye enough to read it and I found it to be rather interesting and humorous. It was about an art collection made completely out of food that was rotting. The design and artist were very unique and I probably wouldn't of have learned about him otherwise without reading from this site because quite frankly it wouldn't of have occured to me to look for rotting food design. Granted, it does make for interesting conversation.

The website itself has a neat design with a good balance of color and white to look almost like if I was reading a pop magazine. The upside to the site is it's free and doesn't have that much advertising that it becomes a neusance or hinderance to have a billion pop ups to get to an article which can and does become very annoying as one might expect.

I could see myself reading the blog again because I'd like to see the aspects of what goes on in the world around me in an unconventional way and through the eyes of those in my generation. I honestly don't particularly care for the title but I guess everyone's got to make a living depending if you take it on a literal or abstract sense from an artist free-soul point of view it's rather crude. On the bright side is they don't make you pay for the site and are basically providing you information without charging you a cent which makes the name ever further intriguing. I wonder why they picked it exactly. Besides that, the blog links to other interesting blogs that are architectural and of other backgrounds. The only thing I would watch out for is the blogs of which I am clicking on as some with titles looked too unconventional on the point of being adult oriented. Besides that, the site is great and I will continue to read up on it every now and again as it makes the reader want to read for the sake of reading and learning and not a forced dread.
