The usefulness of science is sometimes exaggerated. You'd never talk about music being useful or art being useful.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The point is that the arts are important enough to have influenced the greatest minds and talents we know. Albert Einstein said that if he were not a physicist, he would probably be a musician.
Indeed, I would feel that an appreciation of the arts in a conscious, disciplined way might help one to do science better.
The scientist is also a composer... You could think of science as discovering one particular thing - a supernova or whatever. You could also think of it as discovering this whole new way of seeing the world.
I would like people to appreciate science in the same way they appreciate the arts.
Music is there to enrich your life and make you aware of things in a slightly different way.
Especially in the world today, where science rightfully is so important in terms of technology, innovation, telecom, Internet, fighting diseases, I think it's equally important that poetry and painting have their share of support.
Art makes us human, music makes us human, and I deeply feel that science makes us human.
Music, which should pulsate with life, needs new means of expression, and science alone can infuse it with youthful vigor.
It's really only all about music. It's not like a big rocket scientist kind of philosophy or anything.
Music is an art that goes well beyond science. Proof can be found in the huge amount of studies that have been carried out throughout the world based on music-therapy and the important results achieved.
