In Simplifying it becomes so Complex



In an effort to try and simplify ALL the things i do and enjoy i have taken my website and broken it up into areas - i thought this might make it easier for my readers so each area retains its own thread. An artist living in #countrytasmania also writes poetry, makes videos and maintains a variety of interests was making the website 'all over the place'

i hope this new system of mine works. it goes like this :

blackfishartstasmania - a front page info about the artist and many links to the artworks and lifestyle blog and you tube channel

artist working daily - its all about the works, how, when, why - studio work about my art

Just began putting down all my poetry at
Emerald13

listing the works that are completed and available for sale -
blackfisharts art gallery

artist newly moved to #countrytasmania - all the discoveries and enjoyment of place -
Regent Park

Our youtube channel.

DO LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK

Perhaps now the title of this post is making sense ?
i put the (title) question to Gemini (Ai) and got the info below.

The statement "in simplifying it becomes so complex" highlights the paradoxical nature of simplification. While simplification aims to make things easier to understand or manage, the process itself can sometimes involve intricate details and careful consideration, potentially leading to a feeling of increased complexity.

Here's why this paradox might exist:

Unraveling existing complexity:
Simplification often involves identifying and eliminating unnecessary elements within a complex system, which can be a challenging process.

Introducing new layers of understanding:
  • To truly simplify something, you might need to delve deeper into the underlying principles and mechanisms, which can temporarily increase your understanding but also make it seem more complex.
  • The need for precision:
  • True simplification requires careful attention to detail to ensure that you're not oversimplifying or sacrificing important information, which can make the process itself seem complex.
  • Complexity in understanding the process:
  • The process of simplifying is a skill in itself, requiring critical thinking, creativity, and a willingness to question established norms.
Complexity as a natural state:
In many systems, complexity can arise from natural evolution and the need to adapt to changing circumstances, making simplification a constant effort to maintain clarity.
In essence, simplification is not simply a matter of removing complexity; it's a strategic process that can require a thorough understanding of the underlying system and the ability to make informed decisions about what can be eliminated while preserving essential elements.

For example, the author of "The Complexity of Simplicity" says on LinkedIn, "Simplification is not just about removing complexity; it's about revealing the underlying simplicity. It's about finding the essential elements and presenting them in a clear and concise way, even if that process seems complex at times."

Spring joy is fast becoming the most stressful time of year

  Normally we would not see the daily machinations of the native hens (turbo chooks) that live with us however, we have a pair of turbo chooks that have set up house on our front lawn - they have been there for 3 years and have not yet grown their babies to adulthood.   Its fast becoming the most stressful time of the year for us.  This poor little bundle was picked up by a goshawk, turbo chook mum and i went hollering across the hill and the hawk dropped the chick. If it were not for the talons i wonder if the chick would have survived.  She is now buried under a shrub.   This little one (above) was part of 6 day old chicks and as of today we are down to 4with one that is hopping having hurt a leg.  Today has been the most stressful as goshawks have come and gone and now a crow has noticed the little one that is not walking well. Mum has chased it away twice and it is just upsetting to think of the battle these little ones endure daily. a short v...

When Endangered is right in front of you

  This beauty was found on my office bench one morning this week. So intact, so beautiful. A bit of googling established it is a Bogong Moth. My studio and office is a giant shed so i find critters around from time to time and watch a spider in her webs, around my window overlooking the paddock, catch and wrap flies. I n googling i discovered the Bogong Moth is endangered and recorded my sighting on a website dedicated to tracking these amazing creatures . They aim to support Bogong Moth research, and promote Moth Tracker. Common name: Bogong moth Aboriginal name: The name Bogong is apparently derived from the language of the Dhudhuroa Nation of North Eastern Victoria. Scientific name: Agrotis infusa Population: Declining Conservation status: Endangered  Bogong moths also  provide critical food  for the critically endangered Mountain pygmy possum, lizards, antechinus (broad-toothed rat) and spiders across the Snowy Mountain region....

Turos Teszta (cream cheese pasta) - Hungarian recipe

Turos Teszta  - pasta with cream cheese I love the simplicity of this dish that speaks of winter comfort.    My mum taught me this recipe in my teens when my sister and I had to take turns to cook each weekend.- it is usually made with fettuccini, bacon, sour cream and cream cheese. I made this dish last night and have, over the. years, adapted it to bring in a range of extras. i dont use a measure and go by quantities i want for the number of people,   adjusting the additions accordingly with regard to balance and taste.    This recipe is well-suited to being a vegetarian dish by leaving out the bacon and sausage and adding other vegetables.  Questions? ask away. INGREDIENTS Fettuccini - i used Guzzi egg fettuccini (half a pack) smoked bacon - chopped into squares chorizo - chopped into half circles red onion - thinly sliced   carrot - chopped into squares or half circles mushroom - chopped into small squares broccoli tops - finely chopped cream ...
