My primary objective is communicating ideas (however controversial or mad they may be) and, of course, networking. I never object even to the most fierce criticism and opposition, for my in-class discussions with students have since long taught me: finding explanations together contributes to receiving answers to the questions that previously I was at times even unable to formulate.

Any confrontation should be regarded as a confrontation of IDEAS exclusively, not of PEOPLE. My being at a total discord with someone at some theoretical point will NEVER be projected onto my SOCIAL attitude towards him/her, for the contrary is definitely ineffective and evidently unprofitable for both parties.

Hence, I strongly believe that "by helping someone to reach the pinnacle, we are approaching it ourselves".

My small weaknesses: motivated, professionally oriented and clever people (some apply the word "talent" which I am carefully trying to avoid).

I beg your pardon in advance: the amount of information flowing daily through my head sometimes keeps me from answering to my friends' posts, but I always welcome person-to-person messaging, for in fact I see no difference between getting acquainted "in reality" and "in virtuality".

This blog is dedicated to everything related to my creative, scientific, and social activity, not only in my alma maters, but on the federative scale as well.
For the sake of higher info accessibility, primary language here will be English and Russian, however, I have nothing against using any other languages in case discussions require it.

To summarize, the blog covers:
Literal and musical creative works.
Photography and graphics.
Scientific articles and publications on:
- Semantics and semiotics
- Theory of art and culture
- Philosophy
- Linguistic philosophy;
Social projects.
Live coverages of my culturological expeditions.

This list is not exhaustive, however, as you will be able to see after browsing.

Yes. And finally! The last, but not least! NB!
I never try to give fair hearing to my eternal mockery and laughter. I give no explanations to whether this or that statement is true. Every truth is apt to change its axiological vector and become a lie.
Therefore, those who want will soon learn how to recognize the moments, when I am talking seriously.
As to the rest, I am ouvert to appear in your eyes the way YOUR SENSES want to perceive me.
Up to YOU to invent ME.

P.S. 1. Я прекрасно понимаю, что не все имеют аккаунт ЖЖ, поэтому анонимное комментирование приветствуется, но еще более приветствуется - представиться. Однако по причине несдержанности некоторых по части лексики я вынужден комментарии анонимные ставить под модерирование. Пишите, спорьте, излагайте. Но все же следите за стилем. НЕУМЕСТНЫЙ и НЕОПРАВДАННЫЙ мат удаляю.
2. Не утруждайте себя добавлением моего журнала к себе в друзья исключительно в надежде, что я составлю вам "количество" читателей. Это касается тех, кто стремится к "тысячничеству", то есть добавляет, ждет моего ответного шага (а я отвечаю всегда) и снимает метку через час после взаимного добавления. Друзья у меня исключительно ВЗАИМНЫЕ - и стоит вам снять метку, как я тоже снимаю метку в ближайшее посещение страницы списка. Therefore, think twice. :)
