Moonlight Sonata and Mandelbrot Fractal zoom animation

Why create art ? It is my firm belief that artist create because the can , they must and have a duty to others to perform this task as not every human is the same . Dreaming and imagination are as far removed from one as murder and killing is to another - although some what dramatic my description is,  none the less there is an ounce of truth in it. Think of your old schoolmates, the diversity , sporty against nerdy , even sporty people can be creative or not every nerdy person can be creative or visa versa , this breaks down infinitely.  So why have I posted a piece of music like this already created by another man a fractal by another mathematician.

A voice inside me speaks and says don't let reality be the way people except it is, challenge authority and ask who the people are that  have the right to give  this power  - usually it amounts to an unmerciful amount of self aggrandizement and back slapping , nepotism and sheer abuse of power.
