Self recognition

Self recognition is an important factor to determine your intelligence.

Monkeys, pigs know themselves and the world. If you show the mirror, and if the animal knows that the animal inside the mirror is itself, then it is a bit intelligent. This can be also applied to a child. If you know the relationship between you and the world, then you are a bit intelligent.

Young child don't know that. They just think they are the center of the world. Animals don't even realize themselves as an individual life. They follow their instincts, they just know that they are painful, hungry, and they are part of the nature.

Audiences who think for whom is this artwork for, and whom does the life in the artwork means, is an intelligent audience. Most of the audience, including me, do not think that deeply.
If you see a creature in a virtual world, mostly would think that creature part of themselves. One step intelligent audience would question whether it is them projected as a creature, or they are looking inside of the artist, as a creature, or they are looking at the other creature that the artist created.

I am not intelligent, and now I am trying to answer these questions, who the intelligent profs and artists gave me. It is like a new insight that I have not known before.

I also think that animals, who know how to suicide is also intelligent. It means that they know how to kill themselves, which is opposed to their instinct, to live.

Also, I like to think how human beings are the most evolved creature.
Of course, they have the best intelligent.
Another thing interesting that I came to know is that they have the best cooling system, so that they run a long distance. In short, human bodies are designed for long distance running. So they follow the animals, until the animal heats up too much so that it cannot bear, and at that point, human capture them, and ... yummy.....

So.. I would say Endurance is another thing that made human being evolved.

1. Intelligence of self recognition, and finding the relationship between the world and themselves.
2. Endurance to stick to one goal, looking forward to the future and not giving up.

Well. I am glad that monkeys do not care of others, monkeys do not have endurance as much as human. If I see somebody who only cares of himself, and cannot endure or control himself, I would call him an ANIMAL.
