Globalizing Performing Artists Careers and Performances

Tuesday, November 17, 2009 ·
Of course its understandable when people crock their heads and perk their ears up a bit, as if they did not hear me the first time. "Globalizing" artists careers is what I said and that is exactly what I meant.

It stands to reason that this is the next natural step in the "evolution" of entertainment. Think about it. We have done just about all we can do with the stage and its devices (God from the machine). From the times of great Greek thinkers like Plato, Socrates, Aristotle and Greek tragedy Commander Euripides, much time has passed.

Moving on past the stage to motion and audio media has been exploited to its fullest capacity, so much to that point that admittedly every one seems to agree, "what is left?" After hundreds upon hundreds of years of reworking the same themes, dogma, trials and philosophies over and over, truly, "what is left?"

Enter: Superstar-case. Not only Supers.... but its "family" of related entities and believers. You may want to be one of the naysayers like a certain Professor Kevin..., rant, rave and curse all you like. The end of an era is at hand. A new dimension of life is unfolding as we read,... or write..., or speak.

Best you contemplate the profundity of what IS going on rather than remain cocooned in your own self absorption, trying to belittle those less privileged than you, who may be recipients of the benefits of an outstanding education.

Unfortunately, some of us work for a living or have beautiful, but poor parents, who can ill afford such luxuries no matter how much their heart desires to fulfill a child dream. And yes, we the children do dream, dare I?

The one thing that sets us all apart on the playing field, regardless of the circumstances we are born into, is a little thing called life.

Whether you agree with its fairness or not, simply put, that is life!

Nevertheless, back to the subject at hand. It seems the only natural progression that seems to fit with all the dynamic changes that have occurred these last few years is the "internationalization", the "globalization" of performing artists and content creators abilities and careers.

Can you imagine the awesomeness of what could and would be created if these two inimitable forces are joined at the hip in a cohesive union of the best and brightest from both genres?

Start thinking about it...
