Technically CS Lewis paraphrasing him, but still good.

I think art os the communication of one person to another through a medium. I also think pic related gets at an idea of why we like art so much.

I’d disagree anon. The discussion of how evil is unable to create anything on its own and can only imitate the beauty of God is a deeply theological concept.

It’s not about this topic, but Tolkien has a similar philosophy for his writing.

Great stuff anon. Some of the best sci-fi I’ve ever read.

I don’t, but pic related is a pretty good argument for it.

Regarding the sci-fi, some dude on /v/ got me to read Asimov’s short story, The Last Question. I don’t know if it’s exactly what you’re looking for but it’s available online and is a quick read if you’re interested.

I read the Azure Bond series and it was decent for some escapist fantasy. Middle book was probably the strongest. I’ve been considering checking out Black Sun or Dragonlance next.
