Blogging Around: New Ideas

            While reading this Collette’s blog it was like she stole the words right out of my mouth I couldn’t have said it any better. She got the same feeling I got after watching Born into Brothels. She talked about the idea of creativity and how it is an escape for people when they are stuck in a challenging situation much like the kids in the movie. She also talked about how creativity has no limitations and that it is a very powerful and important thing that people often over think.   

My comment: I really liked this idea and how Colette expressed creativity in a way many people don’t really see it. Most of the time people see it as a way of only art and uniqueness. But it’s much more than that it is a way for people to get away and express themselves in many new and exciting ways. This was an idea I really thought about too because I got the same feeling, that when I’m sad or lost ill try and turn to creativity for help as well.

            Jason’s idea of having a music less world was something I never even thought of. While reading this I started to wonder my own curiosities about living in a world without music. He brought up example and explained moments that he has had and that people often have while listening to music. Even though sometimes we don’t realize it but our ears are noticing how beautiful the music is. Maybe that is because we have been listening to it since we were babies. This idea also made me think back to my “what if we lived in a world of dullness and simplicity”. Also, how if we lived in a world of dullness and simplicity and music less we would be a very confused and lost society. This shows how much we really need creativity in terms of music and sound to building our communities.    

My comment: I never thought of this what if?! I realize how much music is involved in my life and I didn’t even know it. I have been listening to music ever since I was a baby. Everyone does like music but we all seem to take advantage of it. I like how Jason expressed this by giving us many examples.
