but towards creativity, towards the heart.” And you might think, “What’s the difference then?” There is a difference, and people often confuse the world of instincts, the dark world, with the creative world. They’re more similar than you’d think. Seriously. In the world of the heart, people are naive and don’t evaluate things with their minds; they often give in to their heart’s desires during travels and creative outbursts. In the world of instincts, it’s almost the same but dark. There, people say, “Why think, I’ll just do what I want.” But it always leans towards the dark, for example, towards some sort of debauchery. A person of the heart would film an elderly woman walking in a field and eating an apple, a creative person would make a video like that, with heart. A material cold person wouldn’t do that because for them, it’s all about programs, quality, effects, transitions, but there’s no soul there, and there’s no elderly woman with an apple, or if there is, it’s so staged that you feel nothing, it’s cold and empty. And now many people in the material world are discovering and bragging about how they’ve learned to use all these programs and shoot videos. But they can’t just film a flying bird or a child playing in a sandbox. No, they might say they’ll film it, but such an idea doesn’t occur to them because it’s not cool. A person of the heart, on the other hand, can still film, with an ordinary phone, an elderly woman with an apple walking through a field, and it will be a thousand times stronger than someone who, with flashy expensive equipment, films and edits a video from the material world. In the world of instincts, the dark world, people can also film something of poor quality, but it will relate to showing how someone smokes weed, is covered in dirty tattoos, or runs half-naked through the woods. And many people who think they are creative are now in swamps, forests, this youth all over the world, taking photos half-naked. For example, climbing onto an old summer house in just underwear, with everything showing, girls take photos hugging some icon. And they think it’s creativity, it’s freedom, it’s an open heart. But in reality, yes, it’s freedom, so it’s not the world of the mind, but it’s the world of dark animal instincts, the world of darkness. And you can always see it just by the color schemes. People in this dark world have distorted colors; everything looks like that. There’s a gloomy tint, like a Soviet hospital or an old police station, it feels like that, like a communal apartment. And this is the world of darkness. The world of darkness feels more like a communal apartment, let’s say, a communal apartment with alcoholics in the Soviet Union in the early 90s, like in the films “Leviathan” or “Cargo 200” - that’s the energy. This is the dark world underground, with such music, such films, such people,
