The Sound Effect Reblog

Here is a great article from The Sound Effect Blog on art and stripping away the pretense of predictability. Simplifying the way we approach art and our expectations for it. 

I think it's interesting how the Web, and I suppose modern times in general, has dulled our senses of art. Overwhelmed and degraded it with 2 minute content and sensational stories available at the click of a button. I wonder, will the Web eventually cause a revitalization of the arts? Reinvigorate our perception of it? Is it already beginning? 

Or will our artistic sensibilities continue its long slow decline? Victim to instant gratification and the pop culture sheen of modernity.
