Week 1 the text

In the reading, the artical about closure was not only interesting but captivating as well. Composed of a comic with one or two sentences per box that in some way convey the authors thoughts as well as corresponding images. The author talks about closure and in short he basically says that closure is what happens when our brains complete something that was not shown. He depicts this rather well, he has a picture of a man running/falling in front of another man with an axe saying he's going to kill him. The next picture is of the word EEYAA!! you don't know that the man was killed, but your brain assumes he was. the author also dips into his view of what art is. he starts of by explaining instincts(survival, reproduction, etc...). he then goes on to say that anything that is not directly fueled by an instinct is a form of art. For example a man sitting on a rock making a beat with his hands is bot fueled by an instinct and is therefore a form of art. This art is important to us because these boredom activities can result in useful discoveries, like the example in the book fire.
