Ok,
I didn't expect that you would be stopping because of what i said.
And i understand that most people don't see anything wrong with it.
Most people just think that anything that happens in front of them is
there for them to appropriate.
In the post youtube era every thing is of equal value;
a dangerous stunt, a symphony, a political speech.
It's all free, lo-res, and 2 minutes long.
I mean, i love it too, it's great.
But this conditions and limits the brain to view the world in these terms.
I'm just saying you have a recorder in your head called a brain.
It is a much higher fidelity if you use it intently then any artificial
capture medium.
If you make the effort for deep particiption in the moment, you will
have the potential for a more interesting experiance useing all your senses.
a recording only captures part of the picture.
By the way,
If you have to hide the mics so "they wont get taken", does that mean that
you are worried about theft, or that the theatre doesn't allow taping or filming?
