in reply to Monk ethics: Beauty vs. Power

Here is an excerpt from a note in my journal on 'Programming as Art':

Is it so strange to seek eloquence and imagination within one's life work?

To summarize, I think it is an internal drive toward self expression to form something from nothing. Since thought is, for the most part, fluid, the expression of that thought can likewise be fluid. Hence, rethinking a piece of code outwardly mimics the natural internal process. Only difference is that here it is a part of the culture to express it.
