Funding intellectual property
[edit]Is this something we like to do, and do naturally? I consider the platform upon which one may contribute. The platform is becoming more and more evolved to enable natural behaviour. The problem that may be perceived by the onlookers is that this new platform can facilitate the process of the reptilian brain, but also is a platform of contribution always chosen? At this point I would like to quote, to the best of my ability, a part of a poem "An Essay of Criticism." written by Pope. I feel that in answer to my rhetoric 'is a platform chosen?' that the reptilian brain can decide on a platform given, in offerance of intellectual property:
"Painters like Poets, Thus unskilled to trace, The naked nature and the living grace, With gold and jewels cover every part, And hide with ornaments their want of Art, True wit is nature to advantage dressed, What oft' was thought but ne'er so well expressed, Something whose truth first convinced at sight we find, That gives us back the image of our mind... "
Now I feel this is a reasonably accurate citation, though I will have to have a look for the book to check, though I am pretty much 100% sure I won't find it. It's probably somewhere in my parents loft! ETPhone440 (talk) 08:49, 2 March 2018 (UTC)
