THE MET LOTTERY, by kjg on May 27, 2022 19:54:37 GMT 1, QUESTION
About a dozen Banksy screenprints released by Pictures On Walls are at least partly based on source photographs that are known to aficionados of the artist. Consider the historical context in which each of those photos was taken.
With respect to one such photo, a fact surrounding the period, situation or event that it captured has a clear connection to the title of one of the five Dead Kennedys songs in Part B.
(i) Post the relevant source photo;
The print is 'I Fought The Law':
The relevant source photo that was used by Banksy:
(ii) Name the relevant song title; and
The title of the song is โRawhideโ.
(iii) Explain the perhaps esoteric but nevertheless straightforward, uncontentious connection that can be made between (i) and (ii).
โRawhide'is a song from the album โIn God We Trust Inc.โ, the first DK album that references to the at that time newly sworn in US president Ronald Reagan.
Rawhide is the nick-name that was given to Ronald Reagan by the US Secret Service.
Reagan was also a former actor who - for the most part - starred in Westerns. โRawhideโ is an American Western series that aired from 1959 until 1965.

THE MET LOTTERY, by kjg on May 27, 2022 8:51:36 GMT 1, 1. Part D:
In two or more sentences, please describe any point raised during the conversation between Galef and Coleman Hughes that was of interest to you (regardless of whether you agreed with the views expressed).
Julia Galef mentions Sigmund Freudโs theory โthe narcissism of small differencesโ or โder Narzissmus der kleinen Differenzenโ.
With that Freud means, that the fiercest fighting doesnโt happen between people with big differences, but between those with relatively insignificant differences. Those are the people you are most passionate to attack. But attacking people who agree with you in most things is not going to be very effective if you want to change the world.
Galef mentions an example of that theory in the animal welfare world. In order to save millions and millions of animals by converting people away from meat consumption a company that produces plant based burgers had to kill 20 animals to get the FDA clearance for their food.
Vegans are actually fiercely attacking that company because of the 20 killed animals, but they donโt (or donโt want to) see the bigger picture where millions and millions of animals are saved instead of being killed for human consumption.
2. Part E:
What is the official name of the crown or tiara being worn by the chimpanzee (or, more precisely, whose image was used as a source image for the crown or tiara being worn by the chimpanzee)?
The image that was used as a source image is the image of Queen Elizabeth II that is used on British banknotes. That particular image was first used in 1990 on a 5 GBP note. On that image the Queen is wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara.

THE MET LOTTERY, by kjg on May 23, 2022 21:09:57 GMT 1, 1. Part D: What is it that Julia Galef felt was missing from the discourse about rationality? Within that context, please also explain what she means by intelligence and knowledge being "tools". She feels a focus on motivation is missing from that discourse, because most books about improving reasoning tend to focus on giving people knowledge that they can use as a weapon against other people instead of using knowledge in other ways. With intelligence and knowledge being tools she means that these are instruments that you can use to pounce other peopleโs beliefs and thought systems, so aimed outwardly, but that you can also use these tools to check with yourself what is really true and what you really think about something, so by pointing those utensils at yourself and questioning you own beliefs. 2. Part D: With references to "On the one hand" and "On the other hand", Coleman Hughes describes two goals many people have โ which seem so important that it's very difficult to know what to do when they're in tension or conflict. What are these two goals? These two goals are: 1. Pursuing the truth wherever it may lead, to develop a picture of the world around you as accurate as possible 2. Feeling part of a group, because so much what we care about in life is being connected to being approved of by the people that are close to us.
You've won Competitionย 49, perhaps having anticipated the predictability of my questions.
Your prize is an undisclosed offset lithograph poster.
REFERENCE ANSWERS โ COMPETITION 49
1.ย Partย D: What is it that Julia Galef felt was missing from the discourse about rationality? Within that context, please also explain what she means by intelligence and knowledge being "tools".
A focus on motivation is what Galef felt was missing from the discourse about rationality.
Galef describes intelligence and knowledge as being tools that can be directed according to one's motivation:
You can direct them towards trying to figure out what's actually true, even if it's not what you wish were true. Or you can direct it towards finding clever ways to justify your preconceived beliefs. And so I felt like the bottleneck [to rational thinking and decision-making] is really more the motivation that directs our thinking than about our knowledge and intelligence.
2.ย Partย D: With references to "On the one hand" and "On the other hand", Coleman Hughes describes two goals many people have โย which seem so important that it's very difficult to know what to do when they're in tension or conflict.
What are these two goals?
(i)ย to develop as accurate a picture of the world as possibleย / pursue the truth wherever it may lead; and
(ii)ย being approved of by our immediate circle, by a chosen tribeย / to feel part of a group (what Hughes also describes as being "one of the central determinants of human happiness").

If this print had been a large, colorful plant or basketball or a combination of both, this print would be a lot more expensive. And the poster is from an editon of only 6, so actually quite limited :-) More than 6 were signed too officially, and more unofficially. There's no numbering or documentation stating it's an edition. Agre that the studio etching is undervalued currently.
But I still have the mail and the sales pdf from Kordansky that state that mine is from an edition of 6 (5 unframed, 1 framed). They sold those at the NY Art Book Fair.

Paul Insect Giveaway, by kjg on May 4, 2022 17:37:12 GMT 1, I cant stand it, what is the good news? (I'm a nosey parker feel free to ignore me). Congratulations whatever it is and good luck to everyone entering (please don't enter me, like I said I got hooked by the good news). No problem at all!
A close relative was diagnosed with covid last week, but made quite a speedy (and rather unexpected) recovery :-)

I simply taped one on the window of my daughter's bedroom with adhesive tape.
