Bob Leonard proposed this definition of aesthetics during the ROOTS Lounge on Tuesday: We have a better understanding, perhaps of the word anesthetics … Anesthetics is no feeling. Numb. No sensory apparatus. To work from that place backwards, aesthetics is sensory feeling. Feeling. Sensory apparatus at work. If we talk about aesthetics, we’re talking about people’s feelings. Not their thoughts or opinions, but their emotional content and their sensory perceptions … So if we talk about aesthetics, it seems to me we’re talking about what the artist does to effect the emotional, sensory experience of the receiver, the witness, the participant. What are your thoughts on this definition of aesthetics, ROOTers?
