As technology becomes more dominant, the arts become ever more important
for us to stay in touch the things that the sciences can't tackle. What
it's actually like to be a person? What's actually important? We can have
this endless progress inside this capitalist machine for greater wealth and
longer life and more happiness, according to some metric. Or we can try and
quantify society and push it forward. Ultimately, we all have to decide
what's important to us as humans, and we need the arts to help with that.
So, I think what's important really is just exposing ourselves to as many
different ideas as we can, being open-minded, and trying to learn about all
facets of life so that we can understand each other as well. And the arts
is an essential part of that.
