kossai: masculine form of kossai (Default)
[personal profile] kossai

so ... for spiritual plurals especially , multiverse can help to explain where people come from and how . this is also basis for great number of fictionkin , and even people not part of either community .

any universe which could exist , probably do - alternate choices in this world and works of fiction alike .

think things somewhat more complicate than that . not as if branch for every single person in world make different breakfast choices - but that is more or less idea .

problem that find some people have is , where worry about and take responsibility for these other universes exist , for any hurt these people go through , and that do stop some people from make art .
well ... this is different view on that , and where artistic creation fall .

in most cases , rather than make art as make universe , kossai see that make art reflect universes . these universes exist before anyone " document " - to make is to tap in , to explore whole other places from comfort of mind . this go for any form of art or fictional exploration in general - when view as well as make .

with games like elder scrolls , might have very complex web of universes for each unique hero character . with games more like celeste , more straightforward - maybe some branches exist where madeline do give up and go home , just as player might rage quit and refuse to play again .

so is art meaningless to make ? no , absolutely not . to make art is still express , and still skill .
just as art is skill , so is this peer into universes . skill that most never really think about or see as possible or rational , but still skill . as with any skill , only hone and get better by use .

and not as if artists have no agency or control in depiction : very opposite , can see these universes and still depict in ways that do not properly reflect , on purpose or not . artist biases can warp truth , corporate can interfere with final presentation of art , so on and so on .
every unique viewer might see different branches of universe reflect also , with different perspectives in life shine highlight on different ones .

so do kossai feel thaliendir is real out there then ? oh , feel certain yes . can reload game again and again to prevent certain character deaths , but unless interfere via console ... same people will always die , and same ones will always survive . can ask questions and feel as if answers come from nowhere , things that might never think up by chance . sometimes feel pull to interfere via console because of things thaliendir really could do , which not possible in game without console - other times , know real path thaliendir would take , and console is just for kossai player convenience .

not really proof at all if think this all sound like nonsense , of course , just curious coincidence . but , well , this post is not for people who believe multiverse is nonsense , instead for people who already hold near . :P
so hope that if do hold multiverse near , and do struggle with feeling of need to take responsibility , that this view might help . make art that feel pull to make , do not stress about cause hurt , or even about get things wrong - just make .
