RE: I admit I wouldn't know how to reply
Thank you, mate!
I somehow believe that useful "product" has to be useful to the person doing it in the first place. Or rather, since it was genuinely useful to me, it might be genuinely useful to someone else (that's at least writing wise). And even though I do believe in value of useful things (objectively speaking), there are things which value is not directly determined by their use (thinking about art now). But! I do like the idea of leaving it to people to decide the value of what crosses their senses and minds and nervous systems.
I believe I understand what you mean, though. And in generalizing way agree with it.
I live in Portugal, model for fine arts faculty, assist a guy that works on projects in art and culture for decentralized platforms (which was how i got here in the first place) and from time to time run an airbnb. Occasionally do translations (Russian-Portuguese-English) and model.
Thanks again for all the info! It was hyper helpful.
