2. Do you have a daily routine or a certain set of actions you complete daily? please describe them..

getting to work-have to be ready on time as i commute

13/1/2012 11:18View Responses

Yeah, the list would be too long. have to shower before i do anything, and i was my body in a certain order. make my bed after my shower, and cant leave the house without eating. thats just the start of the day.

12/1/2012 23:52View Responses

Yes. i wake up, make a coffee, make toast, check facebook, then get ready for the day.

12/1/2012 22:55View Responses

No.

12/1/2012 22:29View Responses

Yes. Morning: Get up, make coffee, have shower, drink coffee, get dressed, brush teeth, drive to work. Night time: Make cup of tea, have a wash, brush teeth, get into bed, drink tea read book, go to sleep

12/1/2012 21:49View Responses

yes. how i get up, how i get dressed, wash brush teeth. I have several routines even how i wash up dishes and how i arrange my meals.

12/1/2012 21:28View Responses

My main routine is of the day is when I get dressed in the morning, I get up, get dressed, have breakfast, make my lunch, do my hair, brush my teeth and put my make up one

12/1/2012 21:14View Responses

Not really, there are certain things that I'll do everyday but not necessarily the same time every day. Usually whenever I remember.

12/1/2012 20:30View Responses

I have not, other than washing and sometimes I don't even do that because I like my bed.

12/1/2012 19:50View Responses

wake up shower eat work out eat uni work

12/1/2012 16:24View Responses

I'm OCD about the order in which I do things everyday. My bed has to be made before I can leave the house, I have to have tea before I can go anywhere, but not before I brush my teeth and have a shower.

12/1/2012 16:08View Responses

Shower. check my YouTube. have breakfast. do dome film work.

12/1/2012 15:44View Responses

At the moment; wake up, revise, relax, sleep.

12/1/2012 15:32View Responses

i complete on most days my routine of getting ready. i wake up, get a shower straight away, get dressed, dry my hair, have something to eat, finish off my hair, make-up and put contact lenses in. most days i am in a rush because i dont like mornings.

12/1/2012 15:27View Responses

only in the morning-must do bathroom duties including cleaning of teeth first thing--then put kettle on and have 3 cups of coffee before the day starts

12/1/2012 15:24View Responses

3. Do you think routine is an important aspect of todays sociery? why?

for certain things i think you have to be

13/1/2012 11:18View Responses

i think its habit and just how the mind works.

12/1/2012 23:52View Responses

kind of. for people who have jobs it is because they go to work everyday, have breaks at the same time everyday and finish at the same time everyday. but for people who don't have jobs they still kind of have a routine as they just do the same things everyday.

12/1/2012 22:55View Responses

Sort of, if it's essential that you manage your time well.

12/1/2012 22:29View Responses

Society? When there is a lack routine things are forgotten. Generally routine is good but can become stale, An equal mix of routine and spontaneity is good.

12/1/2012 21:49View Responses

good to organised but you cant avoid having a routine. everything we do we do in a particular way.for example i wet my tooth brush before putting the tooth paste on.I dont know why I just do it naturally

12/1/2012 21:28View Responses

I think everyone is involved in some sort of routine whether it be going to work everyday or to the pub everyday. I think it's important to have a constant in your life just for your own peace of mind and know that there is always something that will be there even if everything else isn't

12/1/2012 21:14View Responses

I think it is if you live a busy lifestyle or want a scheduled, organized life but for some people that just doesn't work. It's probably important to have somewhat of a routine in what time you go to bed/wake up etc because that could affect your work and daily life which could in turn affect your health and mental health.

12/1/2012 20:30View Responses

I think it is very important indeed. Plans and routines are a sure way of achieving goals and we are part of a society that needs to progress with qualifications/jobs and so on.

12/1/2012 19:50View Responses

I feel that routine is important but it's also good to break from routine and be spontanious at times also

12/1/2012 16:24View Responses

Yes. It is said that humans would perform better if we were permitted to sleep in small intervals as and when we need it. Today's society dictates that we must be awake and doing things for a long period of the day, and sleep solidly for the rest. Routines naturally follow the necessity to be awake for a long time.

12/1/2012 16:08View Responses

Less and less so. routine is being made for the workplace not for the home. as a whole society is routined but more and more people try to break it because he routine takes away from people thoughts of freedom.

12/1/2012 15:44View Responses

Routine makes a lot of people feel comfortable, but can be boring for a few. Overall, I'd say its important.

12/1/2012 15:32View Responses

i think it can be good for people to have a daily routine so that there is organisation in society, but i dont see it as being important, routine can become boring and common, there must be excitement or we would become bored.

12/1/2012 15:27View Responses

no..the routine is only important to me

12/1/2012 15:24View Responses

i think its important for me to do this because never ever am i going to have the facilities available or studio space available for the amount of money i pay (tuition fees)

No it isn't particularly important to society, but it's important to me

4. In 2 years time what are your aims, career wise?

graduate, possibly do a masters, then look at oppurtunities abroad as I'm starting a Teaching English as a Foreign Language course.

13/1/2012 11:18View Responses

hopefully, be earning between 20,000 and 30,000 and working in a decent job.

12/1/2012 23:52View Responses

I am not really planning to get a good career job in the next two years, i still feel too young to get a 'grown up' job. So i'll probably be doing an unskilled job/learning new skills, but I want to enjoy what I do rather than doing something just for money.

12/1/2012 22:55View Responses

I would like people to give me money for writing books at home all day.

12/1/2012 22:29View Responses

I don't feel the need for anymore money, don't really want to take on more responsibilities, so career wise i'll stay as I am please.

12/1/2012 21:49View Responses

To have started or found a job which will get me by and hopefully really enjoy

12/1/2012 21:28View Responses

hopefully working within art in some form or another

12/1/2012 21:14View Responses

I'd like to have a job that I am happy with and not necessarily a job that is acclaimed.

12/1/2012 20:30View Responses

I'd be happy with just being a freelance artist and if I needed to get a part time job to manage, then so be it. As long as I was being creative and selling work.

5. Describe the lifestyle setting you see yourself in, in 2 years time? e.g. where geometrically you are living, what type of accommodation, plus and minus points of supposedly living in this way, etc...

Depends where I get a job. Most probably will still be in Leeds if I am doing a masters; a cheap place just like previous years

13/1/2012 11:18View Responses

living in london renting a house or living with my parents, minus points are I'm still at home probably, plus point is it's cheaper.

12/1/2012 23:52View Responses

probably still around the same area, maybe in a small rented flat or something or sharing a small house with friends? plus points are it is cheap, get to still be around friends and family minus points are that there isn't much to do around spalding area, not a lot of opportunities and it's pretty limited in culture and new experiences.

12/1/2012 22:55View Responses

Okay I would like to live in London maybe, or some nice city, maybe Bath? Ideally I would not be single but you know, it's okay if I am. I'd either be living with a partner or a roomate(s) who I get on really well with. I'd keep my room reasonably tidy and do the washing up straight away. My rabbit Alf would also be there and he would be litter trained by then. I'd leave the house every day to get coffee or maybe go to the gym, I'd like to become a gym sort of person. I'd write a lot and people would like what I'd write and pay me for it, but if that wasn't possible I'd have a nice job in retail, maybe in a bookshop. The plus points of living this way would be that it would be awesome. The minus points would be housework.

12/1/2012 22:29View Responses

Same city, same house, same friends as well as lots of new ones, comfortable with disposable income to be creative, work the weekday, live at the weekend. Minus - become too complacent , limited to new experiences. Positive - I like my life.

12/1/2012 21:49View Responses

as ill be not long out of uni most likely at parets or sharing with friends. even traveling abroad

12/1/2012 21:28View Responses

Probably either Leeds or Nottingham, in a flat or studio flat so I could work on my art but I probably won't have a lot of money and it might be a bit lonely living on my own.

12/1/2012 21:14View Responses

At the moment I see myself living in a rented flat or squat somewhere in Europe depending on how much income I have.

12/1/2012 20:30View Responses

I'll most probably still be living at home with my parents which has the advantage of no rent but also the lack of freedom and embarassment factor. I think this is realistic due to how hard it is to get a mortgage and because of what I want to do not providing a substantial amount of income.

12/1/2012 19:50View Responses

Rented accommodation living in the UK

12/1/2012 16:24View Responses

Literally, no idea.

12/1/2012 16:08View Responses

Somewhere comfortable. affordable. near where i work. with someone hopefully. this should minimise minus points apart from living near the job may mean affordability goes answer vice versa.

12/1/2012 15:44View Responses

Living in London, probably sharing a house. It's the easiest way to get a bit of freedom without having to get a mortgage, but doesn't really help you get on the property ladder.

12/1/2012 15:32View Responses

in two years time i would like to be in a secure job, living wherever i can in order to work in the career i want

12/1/2012 15:27View Responses

same as now-living in spalding,in our own house-plus points are of stability and lovely house surrounded by closee friends-minus points are that the town offers very little in entertainment,culture and decent restaurants

6. If you had no restraints on money and no responsibilities, how would your supposed life in 2 years differ from the above scenario? e.g. where geometrically you are living, what type of accommodation, plus and minus points of supposedly living in this way, etc...

A really nice city centre apartment and I wouldn't have the hassle of finding sponsors or a scholorship to support my Masters

13/1/2012 11:18View Responses

i would probably still live in london but i would live in my own house and do work i love more then an actual job.

12/1/2012 23:52View Responses

I'd like live abroad somewhere hot, by the beach in a beach house or villa where i can experience different culture and a different, laid back lifestyle. I want to get away from the hustle and bustle of cities where there would be no hectic lifestyle and i could be happy not having to do a job I hate just for money. also, a lot of people in england worry too much about what others think and really unimportant things and I want to get away from that. but i wouldn't like moving away from my family and friends.

12/1/2012 22:55View Responses

Not much would be different except I definitely wouldn't have a real job and Alf would have a bigger cage, possibly with tunnels. My home would be bigger and have a library but I'd still like to share it with someone, but I would want to get someone in to do the cleaning. I'd travel more, maybe also have a place in New York. The plus points of living this way would be that it would be awesome. The minus points would be my carbon footprint.

12/1/2012 22:29View Responses

Still based in Leeds near friends and family, but in a massive house with a massive garden, lots of travelling, lots more time to do creative things, lots more time with friends. Plus - more creativity, more time to be spontaneous. Minus - a lack of something to strive for?

12/1/2012 21:49View Responses

Deffinately traveling abroad not in one place too long

12/1/2012 21:28View Responses

I would go off to America, do Camp America, take a gap year and travel around the world seeing as much of it as I can and then settle back into the norm and get my own little flat in the Lake District.

12/1/2012 21:14View Responses

I think I'd still be living abroad somewhere, however, with no restraints on money I think that place would probably be a bit more exotic. Life would be more comfortable and stress free and there would be more opportunities to do things. A minus point would be that living a more lavish lifestyle and no worries would make you less appreciative and maybe take things for granted more.

12/1/2012 20:30View Responses

I'd certainly not live with my parents if I had no limitations on money. I'd have my own house near my parents for freedom and space, preferably an old converted warehouse for a studio/living space.

12/1/2012 19:50View Responses

I would love to go traveling too see the world and not really worry about where I might be living/sleeping. I feel that living in this way can make you see different aspects of life and in turn allow you to see parts of yourself that you might not have noticed before.

12/1/2012 16:24View Responses

There would be more chocolate, more music and I would never run out of tea.

12/1/2012 16:08View Responses

Anywhere nice. in a nice big house with a big garden and a field. upkeep would be expensive but it would be beautiful and friends and family could easily visit..

12/1/2012 15:44View Responses

I'd probably still live in London, possibly still sharing too, I'd rather live with friends than alone at the moment.

yo news flash. i watched episode 3 series 2 of green wing about 10:10mins in aaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnndddd, i'v got an i idea about a sound peice. sue white is stiring her tea with a spoon -mundane noise. repetative noises, maybe do a mix. i think i'll make one, get on it.

thoughts

i have been thinking about doing a painting on how people are similar to insects and how some people have an image that they uphold and spend time on it before they leave the house in the morning. like a kind of gift wrap or onion skin. maybe do a painting of insects in cellophane, or really big insects with ribbon tied around them. how do i make this idea interdisciplinary?

why do i put make up on in the morning? because it makes me feel more confident.
why do i put clothes on in the morning? because it is cold outside. if i defeated the idea of cold. why do i put clothes on in the morning? to stop people from staring at my body parts, to avoid the conversation of 'why have you no clothes on?' so i don't get arrested for inecency. so people don't laugh at me. basically to avoid confrontation and embaressment. why would i feel em barest?

following a routine that you think you are trapped in...

• maybe paint a large insect on a map. yes. what other things follow a routine? computers. binary. soildiors. most people with 9-5's most people with kids. kids that go to school. 

why is there such a need for routine?

mental security? predictability has its possessive points.

what is non-routine?

answers.com gave me this answer... A routine is a sequence of actions regularly followed. Non-routine would be something you wouldn't do at all regularly. My evening routine is home by six and dinner on 
the table by seven. Sleeping late is not or non routine in my family.

routine is someone banging a drum to the time of music. rituals are routines. what if i routinely at 6pm everyday did something completely spontaneous? 

  

i think sometimes routine makes me feel safe and comforted, but also it bores me and i have to go find a vice. once the vice has been experienced i might just go back to the routine. 

watches are routine. until the moment when the stop working and then they are routinely not working. 

i am loitering over something paula said the other week, it went something like 'do be afraid to make aesthetically beautiful things' it made me think about it and i think i might have been avoiding making beautiful things because i think when something is beautiful other aspects of it can be overseen and not so pungent. but then when something is not beautiful at all it might be overseen completely and ignored. 

i'm still very interested in the subject of nihilism.

ni·hil·ism  (n-lzm, n-) n. 1. Philosophy a. An extreme form of skepticism that denies all existence. b. A doctrine holding that all values are baseless and that nothing can be known or communicated. 2. Rejection of all distinctions in moral or religious value and a willingness to repudiate all previous theories of morality or religious belief. 3. The belief that destruction of existing political or social institutions is necessary for future improvement. 4. also Nihilism A diffuse, revolutionary movement of mid 19th-century Russia that scorned authority and tradition and believed in reason, materialism, and radical change in society and government through terrorism and assassination. 5. Psychiatry A delusion, experienced in some mental disorders, that the world or one's mind, body, or self does not exist.

Nihilism ( /ˈnaɪ.ɨlɪzəm/ or /ˈniː.ɨlɪzəm/; from the Latin nihil, nothing) is the philosophical doctrine suggesting the negation of one or more putatively meaningful aspects oflife. Most commonly, nihilism is presented in the form of existential nihilism which argues that life is without objective meaning, purpose, or intrinsic value.^[1] Moral nihilistsassert that morality does not inherently exist, and that any established moral values are abstractly contrived. Nihilism can also take epistemological, metaphysical, orontological forms, meaning respectively that, in some aspect, knowledge is not possible, or that contrary to popular belief, some aspect of reality does not exist as such.

The term nihilism is sometimes used in association with anomie to explain the general mood of despair at a perceived pointlessness of existence that one may develop upon realizing there are no necessary norms, rules, or laws.^[2] Movements such as Futurism and deconstruction,^[3] among others, have been identified by commentators as "nihilistic" at various times in various contexts.

Nihilism is also a characteristic that has been ascribed to time periods: for example, Jean Baudrillard and others have called postmodernity a nihilistic epoch,^[4] and someChristian theologians and figures of religious authority have asserted that postmodernity^[5] and many aspects of modernity^[3] represent a rejection of theism, and that such a rejection entails some form of nihilism.

do i have to have a job and a boyfriend and kids to be a respected person? who am i seeking this respect from? 

Existential nihilism is the belief that life has no intrinsic meaning or value. With respect to the universe, existential nihilism posits that a single human or even the entire human species is insignificant, without purpose and unlikely to change in the totality of existence. The meaninglessness of life is largely explored in the philosophical school of existentialism.

• maybe a painting of the bottom of a boot, with a squished human on it. 
• maybe a human distorted into the shape of the underside of a boot, or footprint. 

Moral nihilism, also known as ethical nihilism, is the meta-ethical view that morality does not exist as something inherent to objective reality; therefore no action is necessarily preferable to any other. For example, a moral nihilist would say that killing someone, for whatever reason, is not inherently right or wrong. Other nihilists may argue not that there is no morality at all, but that if it does exist, it is a human and thus artificial construction, wherein any and all meaning is relative for different possible outcomes. As an example, if someone kills someone else, such a nihilist might argue that killing is not inherently a bad thing, bad independently from our moral beliefs, only that because of the way morality is constructed as some rudimentary dichotomy, what is said to be a bad thing is given a higher negative weighting than what is called good: as a result, killing the individual was bad because it did not let the individual live, which was arbitrarily given a positive weighting. In this way a moral nihilist believes that all moral claims are false.

no action is necessarily preferable to any other

fuck the <enter organisation/ authority figure/ politician here>

i have come across this problem before of 'how do i display things like this in a visual way' 

i am very tempted to take things that have in societies eyes larger negative weighting compared to possessive and replace things that are the opposite. although value comes into this immensely. 

value is relative.

value is opinion.

value is mass opinion?

In ethics, value is a property of objects, including physical objects as well as abstract objects (e.g. actions), representing their degree of importance.

Ethic value denotes something's degree of importance, with the aim of determining what action or life is best to do or live (Deontology), or at least attempt to describe the value of different actions (Axiology). It may be described as treating actions themselves as abstract objects, putting value to them. It deals with right conduct and good life, in the sense that a highly, or at least relatively highly, valuable action may be regarded as ethically "good" (adjective sense), and an action of low, or at least relatively low, value may be regarded as "bad".

What makes an action valuable may in turn depend on the ethic values of the objects it increases, decreases or alters. An object with "ethic value" may be termed an "ethic or philosophic good" (nounsense).

Deontological ethics or deontology (from Greek deon, "obligation, duty"; and -logia) is the normative ethical position that judges the morality of an action based on the action's adherence to a rule or rules.^[1] It is sometimes described as "duty" or "obligation" or "rule" -based ethics, because rules "bind you to your duty".^[2] Deontological ethics is commonly contrasted with consequentialist ethical theories, according to which the rightness of an action is determined by its consequences.^[3] Deontological ethics is also contrasted from pragmatic ethics.

Normative ethics is the study of ethical action. It is the branch of philosophical ethics that investigates the set of questions that arise when considering how one ought to act, morally speaking. Normative ethics is distinct from meta-ethics because it examines standards for the rightness and wrongness of actions, while meta-ethics studies the meaning of moral language and the metaphysics of moral facts. Normative ethics is also distinct from descriptive ethics, as the latter is an empirical investigation of people’s moral beliefs. To put it another way, descriptive ethics would be concerned with determining what proportion of people believe that killing is always wrong, while normative ethics is concerned with whether it is correct to hold such a belief. Hence, normative ethics is sometimes said to be prescriptive, rather than descriptive. However, on certain versions of the meta-ethical view called moral realism, moral facts are both descriptive and prescriptive at the same time.

Broadly speaking, normative ethics can be divided into the sub-disciplines of moral theory and applied ethics. In recent years the boundaries between these sub-disciplines have increasingly been dissolving as moral theorists become more interested in applied problems and applied ethics is becoming more profoundly philosophically informed.

Traditional moral theories rest on principles that determine whether an action is right or wrong. Classical theories in this vein include utilitarianism, Kantianism, and some forms of contractarianism. These theories offered overarching moral principles to use to resolve difficult moral decisions.
