Self-Defense Workshop by Darin Waugh

Self-Defense Workshop by Darin Waugh

Sun, Sep 20, 5:00 PM
From Ohio Fight club
4.9

Join us for a **Martial Arts & Self Defense** workshop hosted by **Darin Waugh**, an original member of the school and author of multiple martial arts books, including one of our history: [The History & Practice of Doโ€“Jungโ€“Ishu: "The Art of Fighting"](https://www.lulu.com/shop/darin-waugh/the-history-practice-of-do-jung-ishu-the-art-of-fighting/ebook/product-1epnn759.html?page=1&pageSize=4). It will be held at **Tuttle Park (240 W Oakland Ave., Columbus, OH 43201)** on **September 20th @1pm.** Ages 18+. At Darin's workshop, you can expect a casual vibe and **hands-on education** of **efficient** and **effective** concepts and techniques from Doโ€“Jungโ€“Ishu's take on **Jeet Kune Do**, Bruce Lee's legacy. **Sticky Hands** **(Chi Sao)**, a method of controlling your opponent while still maintaining offensive pressure in the clench, is one such concept, and Darin Waugh is one of the best in the world to do it. What you are introduced to in this workshop can be taken with you and grown in future classes with us or wherever you prefer to train. The workshop will last as long as Darin stays to teach, and however long attendees decide to stick around and practice. The fee is **$10/attendee,** and **all proceeds go towards maintaining the club and for Darin's time.** Our shirts may be purchased at the event for $25, and they function as a **%50 discount** when worn to classes. Payments may be made by the following: * Cashapp: $uperman90 * Venmo: @james-cole-213 * In-person Cash Directions to the event spot: From High street, turn west onto Oakland Ave. and go straight until you reach the Tuttle Park parking lot. Once parked, continue west down the sidewalk. We will be at the shaded area by the bench, trashcan, and field hockey arena. If class size gets too big, we may have to move to the southern treeline of the park. Look for the **Black and Red Yin-Yang shirts!**

Drunken Philosophy: "What is Art?"

Drunken Philosophy: "What is Art?"

Sat, Sep 19, 11:00 PM
From Drunken Philosophy of Columbus
4.7

Welcome to Drunken Philosophy, a casual, curious, social discussion club. Come grab a drink and a seat at The Oracle. Optional Discussion Questions * Defining Art: Plato viewed art as an imitation of realityโ€”can art even be objectively defined, or is it entirely subjective? * Artist vs. Audience: Arthur Danto suggests art is defined by its interpretation within the "artworld." Who ultimately decides what counts as artโ€”the creator, the critic, the viewer, or society? * Limits of Art: Duchampโ€™s "Fountain" challenged our boundaries of art. Can anythingโ€”even ordinary objects or actionsโ€”become art? * Art and Meaning: Kant argued true art should evoke "disinterested pleasure." Does art need to have a message or deeper meaning, or can it exist purely to please aesthetically? * Art for the Masses: According to Benjamin, mass-produced art (film, photography, digital media) can democratize culture. Does widespread accessibility improve art or diminish its value? * Art and Truth: Heidegger suggests art reveals hidden truths about existence. Has an artwork ever fundamentally changed how you understand the world? Can a work of art change the way an entire society views the world? * Art and Emotion: Tolstoy believed the purpose of art is to transfer emotions. Must art evoke emotion to be valid? * Cultural Impact: How do cultural backgrounds influence our definition of art? Could something be art in one culture but not in another? * Art and Skill: Does art require technical skill or craftsmanship? Should a portrait of a crude person be painted crudely? * Art Museums: Are museums gatekeepers of culture, preservers of history, or something else entirely? What role do art museums serve? * NFT Art: Does art lose its value or authenticity if it only exists digitally? * Moral Art: Should art strive to morally improve us as Plato and Tolstoy argued, or should it be free from moral duties, as Wilde proposed? * Beauty and Meaning: Can art still be meaningful if it isn't traditionally "beautiful"? What qualities might make an artwork significant beyond aesthetic beauty? * Rejection of New Ideas: Why do new artistic ideas often face initial rejection? Are groundbreaking works inherently challenging to accepted tastes, or is rejection more about comfort and familiarity? \#\# Additional Thought Experiments \#\#\# 1\. The Found Object If an artist presents an everyday objectโ€”like a urinal or a banana taped to a wallโ€”in a gallery, does this automatically transform it into art? 2\. AI Art Can art created by artificial intelligence truly be considered "art"? Does the absence of human intention diminish its artistic legitimacy? 3\. The Invisible Artwork Imagine an exhibition showcasing an "invisible" artworkan empty space labeled as art. Does such a piece hold artistic value or communicate meaningful ideas? 4\. Time\-Travelerโ€™s Art Would classical artists like Leonardo da Vinci or Michelangelo recognize modern abstract or conceptual art as meaningful, or dismiss it entirely? 5\. Beauty vs\. Innovation Consider two artworksโ€”one aesthetically pleasing yet conventional, another innovative but visually unpleasant. Which has greater artistic value, and why?
