Ego facio, ergo sum

A meteoric, reflective piece which births ennui and disillusion 
The "What I Do" meme is the signs of the reawakening of the economy and the renaissance of how we view employment and life choices.
This - widely considered the primordial piece - reflects the timeless plight of the artist.  Specifying that the artist seeks to expand art in it's most contemporary forms, the creator defines the artist's existence within the concept of perception.
It is oft cited that the artist must eschew if not fully disdain the opinions of the masses.  In this piece, the reality of art is revealed viciously, exposing that all art must be seen and thus judged.  The integral aspect that unifies these pieces is the juxtaposition of expectation against reality.  The self referential sections construct the foundation of humor for the previous sections - exposing the opinions of friends and family whose thoughts are often romanticized or trivialized.  The self-section exposes the inner ideal of the craft assumed by the creator and the final two juxtapose the absurdity of society's view against the reality which is often much less glamorous.
What God thinks I do?
Unless you are NPH, in which case, no one can ever truly understand your greatness.
