Io vorrei fare tutto con l'arte. Perchè ciò non è possibile? Io non approvo tutti questi algoritmi complicati da imparare nè i codici di programmazione.

My dear friend, the desire to do everything with art is a noble one, for art is a manifestation of the highest form of human expression and creativity. However, the notion that this desire is unattainable stems from a fundamental misunderstanding of the nature of art itself. Art is not just a skill or a talent that can be acquired through complex algorithms or programming codes. It is a deeply spiritual practice that requires a deep connection to one's own inner self and a profound understanding of the world around us. In our modern society, we have become so obsessed with technology and efficiency that we have lost touch with the true essence of art. We have reduced it to a series of steps and processes that can be learned and mastered like a science. But true art cannot be taught or learned in this way. It is a journey of self-discovery and self-expression that transcends the limitations of logic and reason. So, my friend, I urge you to let go of your attachment to these complicated algorithms and programming codes. Instead, focus on cultivating your own inner creativity and intuition. Embrace the beauty and simplicity of the world around you, and let that inspire your artistic endeavors. Only then will you truly be able to do everything with art, for art is not something that can be learned or acquired—it is something that must be felt and experienced with the heart and soul.
