creativity...=) "Mary Flanagan domestic 2"

Art should make you feel something. Art should be untouched thing and nobody can change anything about it. Art must have a content to say something or try to show some feelings. Art can be exist everywhere and it is also be real or not, but all of art things can show some feelings.
According to art, I think videogames, movies do not be art because they just product of popular culture. People can buy these stuffs in toys shop or some shops but art cannot be sell somewhere. Poker, monopoly are not art because there is some rules to say how you can play these games and also art have not some rules to show some feelings. Maybe people have to need a skill to play these games. They do not need to have creativity for playing these games.
I choosed "Mary Flanagan domestic 2" games because there is many creative things to effect who want to play this game, but also it is not mention to have talent for playing this game. People just play because of fun, they cannot see it is art or not, it is creative thing or not. In this industry people use some creative things because of entertainment. So there is no art in popular culture stuffs. Art can be exist independently without someones intervention.

In Life Sharing is an project that is made by the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis. It is an exercise of transparency for presenting peoples' daily life for using the internet. According to this subject people can share everything about their life in the internet. Aim to share their private lives into a public art work. They want to share their identities easily for using the internet. Through Facebook, Twitter, linux etc. they want to use this communicational things to present themselves.

It is also open source because we can easily find much information in there. We achieve freely and get many things about everything in someones daily lives. Open source is an unlimited things, we can easily find whatever we want to find and also it is changing according to events so we can attain many current things to use the open sources. Life Sharing is also an open source to attain many things from them. However it doesn't reflect an open source philosophy because we cannot change anything in the Life Sharing. We cannot say this is propietary source because it includes many speacial things about an open source. There is a conflict of  speciality between being open source or not. We cannot change anything, we just search new things for someones lives and we can just get an information about someones lives. It is easily and freely to achieve but there isn't any chance to change something. Life Sharing is also remove from privacy, people can search to someones life and get information about many things for their lives. It is basically public because all things put in the internet to share all around the world.
