The Arts
I cannot say I am one who is much into art but it is sad to think it is going to waste. I do not have any kind of hobby or talent such as singing or painting but either would be amazing. It is so cool how people can put their feelings into such creative pieces of work. I really wish it was appreciated more. It sucks that now a day people cannot create and do the things they love as a career. People are so talented and technology is really taking it away from them. I think it is probably because kids are brought up watching TV and playing video games. People are too lazy to go and enjoy true art. Technology takes away experiences. There really is not much a painter can do with technology except put a picture or video up of their work and that is not the same as seeing and experiencing the piece in real life. I hate that America has become the way it is. It might be easier using technology but I don’t know if it is bettering society. It defiantly is taking away something as we are shown from this video. The arts do need to be saved. I would hate for future society to not be able to enjoy past arts as we have been able to do.

Sarah, I enjoyed your post and am glad you feel this way. It shows you have a real appreciation for the arts. I don't think technology can kill the arts though. It may seem that people are consumed with past times that pretty trivial but as we mature our tastes change and we appreciate things we did not when we were younger. I could not stand country music when I was younger and my Dad loved it. I know love it too, not really the CMT stuff but the rootsier (?) stuff. It is good for parents to expose their children to art so they will appreciate it someday. Reading is something that is also a great way for children to develop a love for the arts.
