"Excessivism", by K. Salem Mohammad, and "The Philosophy of Andy Warhol"



  • In "The Philosophy of Andy Warhol", Warhol writes about his philosophy about how the world is. I really enjoyed reading about his different views. Some of these views included, money, time , space and art. He has a very humorous way of writing that makes it easy to read for the reader and enjoyable. One of my favorite points that he used to describe time was that he never actually arrives on time for appointments because they never start on time. Another good example that I completely agree with was when he was defining beauty. He says that beauty is always changing, and each person's form of beauty changes through their life. I’ve never looked at it like that but it makes a lot of sense. "Excessivism" by K. Salem Mohammad was not as easy to read as Warhol's reading. Mohammad rambles on and I feel never really elaborates on a point. Though, I did get some things from the reading like how he said that everything in your closet should have an expiration date so that it doesn’t become overcrowded.
