Favourite Music
I love music. I don't need it to live (as some people i know do) but music makes life so much more enjoyable. I like all music, but the music we commonly associate with the time between (and excluding) "Jazz" and"The 80s" much less so.
I say i like pop music.
Others say i like intellectual music.
Ideally music is both. It often isn't. And I am perfectly happy with that. We have a lot of problems on our planet. Our music isn't one of them. As a species we have a pretty awesome taste in music.
Favourite Non-Auditive Art
I am an aesthetic minimalist. I like contrasts. And the exception. And overviews.
Art needs to show something formerly unseen, and only then does it need to delight. An artwork is created, usually by an artist. But an artwork also creates, it creates situations. If done right, they are among the best there are. Some are reminiscence about situations gone, some are entirely new ones. Art brings about different ways of seeing and of thinking.
