Last night I attended a concert at the theater. It 'was a one-man concert show, jazz very special, but this deserves a separate post, that sooner or later write. The topic of the post is another, though related to the concert.
We're talking about a concert at the theater for 45 € a ticket, jazz, public educated enough and certainly not low-level office.
The first phrase is the classic presentation of the concert, "remembers to bla bla bla that is not allowed to take photos and video. "
The first 10 minutes are almost assured, but bearable some flash around the 5 piece instead taken by the enthusiasm the audience begins to lose perhaps the brakes inhibitors and found that the neighbor is taking and returning safely, the crowd let go as if it were the "red carpet" Hollywood and not a jazz concert. At a certain point and click-clack, beeps and zag of the most damned equipment covered nearly the sound of the concert. A show absolutely indecent and offensive to those who had paid 50 € to enjoy the pure sound of the classical guitar in the hands of man is golden.
Only the intervention of the staff of the theater was able to return to the phenomenon that had assumed grotesque.
First is money poorly spent, pay a considerable sum to go for a home movie in the dark at a crappy resolution and capture sound confused and distorted, and how much more I can fool you. Then the flash is disturbed those who wanted to enjoy the sensations of the moment, is the artist who at one point he also apostrophised room appealing to a more appropriate behavior.
I wonder how we got to this point? I thought a lot today to what happened, and I finally realized that part of rudeness technology that is spreading like wildfire!
The same rudeness that we carry around on public transport when answering the phone scream our problems to 50 people, that little matter. The same that makes us turn on the phone as soon as the plane touches the ground on which we are flying. The same that we are loading on social networking sites photos of people without their consent. The same that makes us turn to spend summer in photography, photograph, photography .... without enjoying the moments we are living.
Last night was a unique event that someone has hurt and at times preferred to see the display of a mobile phone. This attitude puzzles me but makes me to think that the fault is not theirs in the end. It is the fault of that system of consumerism that makes us constantly buying more and more sophisticated gadgets and convinces us of their absolute necessity in our daily lives. Last night I saw everything, cameras, camcorders, mobile phones latest, all concentrated in the moment rather than return to live it fully. I would ask them how they felt when they viewed a few clips and then this morning, will arrive in the office all happy Ganzi heroic enterprise? Glad to upload 5 minute video on some pirate platform? It 's really necessary to let all this take the technology and fail to take off a couple of hours and experience a sensation, dive completely into the music, close your eyes and relax for a moment. NO to the rude embraces the shift in the camera and his fuckin beard to every rule and etiquette is convinced that the full photo is included in the ticket.
What can I say, maybe a rock concert ... where the decibels hide the noise of a deviant technology.
