We see. (Eye)
We duplicate what we see. (Hands)
We create something seemingly new, even though it was never really original in the first place. It was already created a thousand times. (Body)
That's just what I interpreted. Good work

I would say that How is one of the more straight forward of the 5 (Who, What, Where, Why, and How).
Especially in the physical, it only asks the actions that caused a certain outcome.
What is the most basic and most complicated out of the 5, with the most profound question of "What is this?" Attaching itself, not only to the present state of this object/concept, but the origins of it and the natural future of such a thing.
Who and Where have the ability to reach into the abstract definitions, but for the most part, they are involved in the identity of the conscious being involved, and the physical placement of whatever action is taking place, respectively. This makes them the most basic in my mind.
Why is the most abstract (which is probably the reason that I find it the most attractive out of the 5), but it is also heavily dependent upon the other 4 questions. It's concerned with motivation. For the purely physical event, the motivation is simple: This event has happened because these 2 (or more) objects have interacted in concordance with the physical laws of our universe.
But if you involve a Who, then everything changes. Suddenly, there's an independent willpower that has complete control of how it interacts with the world around it. If you start to add the What, Where, and How, you can have a better understanding of the reasoning behind the Why. For most people, having these details of their actions can immediately give you an intimate idea of Who they are and Why they've done that.
To be honest, I've grown around this understanding, and I find it hard not to pay attention to those details about people.
As far as any one of these questions being "results-oriented", every single one is asking something about the result.

You're probably right that What and How are the main 2 that people pay attention to.
I certainly know that I'm an outsider in my thoughts and behavior.
I'm very glad that I can still find people who will, at least, be interested in abstracting with me.
Even if for a moment.
I suppose that Why is the scariest to most people. It's very hard not to have an objective judgement when questioning motives; or at least, attempting to have an objective measure (objective in the sense that you believe all people should follow that measurement, not that it's a completely objective scale.)
And because of this, if you have any honesty, you have to put those same judgments on yourself. A lot of people don't want to sacrifice their comfort for that.

Interesting. Truly interesting.
It stands to reason what you said, but I'll admit of not puting much thought on it.
How complicated can the simplest of things be, and how many ramifications can it have.

Ah, a fantastic sense of discomfort and wonder revolving around two of the most sensitive parts of the body - hands that once learned to wrap reed around rock to make tools, can now type keys and create paragraphs at a faster speed than even the brightest playwrights of yore would marvel. The eye of wisdom taking in all of the knowledge, seeing the lessons of the past, and watching the goings on of the present, to keenly look forward to a brighter future.
Another nice bit of art of yours, I'm again loving it!

I was actually thinking about it a couple of days ago. Twenty centuries ago, the Romans believed that if a young, fit man died suddenly, someone had poisoned him.
Today, if the same young man died, our doctors can not only find trace amounts of any poison, they can even determine that it wasn't poison, that it was a congenital heart disease, or myocarditis.
The biggest wonder to me is in another twenty centuries, our far descendants will look at our technological wonders, and see them how we see Roman physicians.
I know, I know... I'm rambling. But that's what I appreciate about your art - it's thought-provoking.
