theres something that music and film have in common and that is that they communicate through emotional connection. they take advantage of mirror neurons and the instinct in animals to harmonize emotionally. most people, when they read books, want the same connection. they consider that to be the only connection and if something attacks the reason only and is emotionally cool they call it dry reading and they more or less disdain it. and yet the thing that is particularly human and almost unique to this species, and is in fact the only key to our survival, is this ability to reason, which is whats called dry and in our time is soundly frowned upon.
that's too bad.
