*This multiplicity (or at least duplicity) of mind is, I think, a creative process related to the creative processes involved in literary Art; and to the psychiatric disorders often characterised by apparent 'split' or multiple personalities. It is possible to see Visual Art, with its single (artist's) viewpoint spreading into the multiple imagery of some works, as more characteristic of J~;** Literary Art with its tendency towards multiple viewpoints as existing along the arc through G~; and Musical Art, with its virtual lack of viewpoint (in the highest, at any rate)*** at R~.****

Art, of course implies Artifice, or at least Artefact: the term 'Art' sits most happily with Visual Art, nearer to the Manufactoral sector of A; moderately happily with Literary Art;# and least happily as Musical Art, nearer to the Cerebral sector of +C†I~.#*


*[See last two previous entries.]

**where [visual] Artists were found by birthdate.

****where Musicians were found by birthdate.

#[more happily with Dramatic Art, perhaps; and cf. Performance Art, which I think most frequently tends to involve elements of dramatic performance such as movement, (e.g. mime or dance), speech (prose or poetry), but less often music. <20170915>]
