This is just delightful. Almost as good as stained glass windows . . .
When seeing such playful creativity, one should have more confidence about our future along with some simple reasons for wanting to defend it. Imagine what Verdi would have said if he could see what has been done with his music. Again, try to look at things from a different time perspective than your own. We grow use to things and thereby we are no longer surprised or impressed. This is flawed reasoning brought on more by being tired than by being reasonable. Children (or at least children from the pre-electronic game age) don't quite get bored with marvelous things - adults do and so we give children the sort of toys that allow them to grow bored just like us - and then we call it progress.
We should be startled by the sun, not by the eclipse; we should wonder
less at the earthquake, and wonder more at the earth.
G.K. Chesterton
