the other day i came across this article which posses a question about recognizing fine art. its a pretty cool social experiment- a world renowned violinist, joshua bell, plays his best music in a train station as commuters head off to their offices. would anyone notice the world class music, or would they pass it by and not even recognize it for what it is?the article explains the set up and the results of performing such an experiement. it is a long article, but incredibly interesting. it reminded me of a very important lesson: stop and smell the roses (or, in this case, stop and hear the music).
