1. Key concepts that I learned from the article was the use of equal luminance, and from the videos, I learned the different perspectives on aesthetics from multiple philosophers. I found many of their views to be very interesting.
2. I believe 18th centery philosopher Alexander Baumgartner's theory n aesthetics is most important because he explains that beauty is seen in a way of sensation, or taste of beauty in a logical and reasonable way. He talks about how art brings us from the dark to the light in a means of understanding and, many other philosophers didn't talk about how beauty can be seen in more than one way through our sense and, that's what i think sets him apart from many of the other philosophers.
3. I thought Changeux and Ramachandran's views on aesthetics and art were pretty interesting, many of the views they talked about are similar to the way that i view art and aesthetics. I love how Changeux talked about how art is a way of non-communication of emotions, knowledge and experiences.
4. The video and article relate to the text in a way that they all talk about the different aspects, opinions and stories on art in specific time periods. As well as how the beauty of art can be seen as beautiful in many more ways that just a sense of pleasure and/or appeal.
5. The videos and the articles were actually very good. It broadened my understanding of art ad allowed me to see it in a different way than i had prior to reading the article and watching the videos. It deepened my understanding by explaining more in depth the ideas of aesthetics and why art can be seen as either important or not depending on the person and their views.
