“canonical" has many meanings across math, physics, computing, religion, etc.
in general though, the artistic “canon” is often referred to as the long stream of influences that create and sustain a civilization

it’s important to note that artists make the canon, not critics
in the West today we are suffering from critics and elites trying to re-write history and censor canonical works, styles, and ways of living

humans are souls
our souls seek spiritual quests
*this* defines all great art - which is art that stands the test of time

great art in the West historically has had religious themes, whether explicit or implicit
religion has been central to our identity and the secularization of society, especially the elite class, has taken a toll on art

viewing religion through a "scientific" / "rational" lens, rather than a metaphysical one has led to the creation of soulless technology that is used to try to manage and control society

religion is a complex symbol system, a metaphysical lens through which we can see the vastness and sublimity of the universe
it's stories are epic poems conveying spiritual truths

Viewing a relationship with Jesus, through a religious lens of tradition, has allowed scientism to inform our world to the extent that people believe they live on a spinning ball when the earth is flat and motionless.

much of history has been lost or is in the process of being re-written and the majority of society is completely unaware that this is happening
we can change that now with bitcoin
we can define, document, index, and add on to all the canoical works

"the history will go down in bitcoin" - @1623
(i can't find the original tweet because twitter search sucks)

in order to leave a legacy, we need to re-establish the aesthetic beauty and importance of canonical works via bitcoin and proof of work
this will establish a framework for future generations to build upon by putting the human soul back into technology
