First, things of note:
I started out with something-or-other in my mind about art or photography, but then realized that again limits the scope to those directly interested in it. So I'm going to try tracing it back to the root a little more:
What do you find beautiful and why? Are there parallels or commonalities between beautiful art and beautiful music? Which sense(s) do you most frequently notice things as "beautiful" in?
Do you do anything to draw more beauty into your life? Or to create it?
Is beauty important in utilitarian parts of your life? (Clothes, housing, food, etc.?) If so, important in what way or what degree?
I'll put some of my thoughts in the comments in a moment.
Additional Notes
Feel free to digress or meander as you're moved - please try to leave the conversation as good as or better than you found it. The Salon FAQ has more info on how to reply if you want to and don't have a LiveJournal account.
- There is a salon FAQ.
- Feel free to reply to / talk with each other. The hope is to get a lively discussion going!
- The topic is a starting point. Feel free to digress from it. Wildly, if you wish.
