Surreal ⊆ Real

The following conversation was started in Google+ under a post with this outline:
"
The purpose of life is to live in the moment and enjoy it like a sheep! not like a complex creature who imprisons himself in self-made concepts such as tradition, religion, culture, addiction, scholarship, moneymaking, ..."


Amd
: The real world outside is the very killer of our dreams and passions. If a man is sucked into it too much, he will most likely kill all of his dreams and fantasies. I think the realm of art and fantasy is what separates a man from his outer world.

Bizz: But art and fantasies actually are a part of a bigger artistic masterpiece - the nature. In other words, they're the nature's doings not from a encapsulated mind of an individual. They are created in the same pattern as their creators', and this is what makes 'the Real' insufficient for man, because unlike 'the Surreal', the rules and pattern are somehow known to him.

Amd: Beyond every real thing, one can find clues from the mind of its creator. But the beauty of an artwork lies in the source of the inspiration by which the artwork is created, which is sometimes too near to a known pattern and sometimes is far too complex. Perhaps one day human mind could be fully analyzed, but till that day we can have fun with its complexity and vagueness.

Bizz: So if that day comes, it will be the death of 'the Surreal'. i.e. 'the Surreal' is nothing more than the ignorance of perception of the mind of a man.

Amd: Yes it will be the and of the surreal project. it's very similar to superstition in that matter, but ignorance is an offensive word considering that surrealism is trying to provide answers to what has no answer. And since the mankind won't reach that point of no return, so why don't we live of lives despite of this paradox.

Bizz: This ignorance is the one thing if seized to exist, all conceptions of humanity will vanish. so will art, beauty, willpower, dreams, passions, desire to find an answer and desire to live. One can either hope that one day he will be able to drop the curtain and destroy all, or he can accept his inability to know the truth and blindfolded enjoy sucking a huge cock and fantasizing it to a menthol lollipop, if you pardon my french!
