Un artículo interesante en el Washington Post sobre la reacción a la música en la calle.
En particular, la siguiente cita:
‘There was no ethnic or demographic pattern to distinguish the people who stayed to watch Bell, or the ones who gave money, from that vast majority who hurried on past, unheeding. Whites, blacks and Asians, young and old, men and women, were represented in all three groups. But the behavior of one demographic remained absolutely consistent. Every single time a child walked past, he or she tried to stop and watch. And every single time, a parent scooted the kid away’
La capacidad para disfrutar de la belleza (y en general de lo que tenga que ver con la estética, que lo bello no es lo único estéticamente relevante) es una capacidad abandonada. Nada que no sea muy obvio en realidad una vez que se lo piensa, de todas formas algo deprimente.
