More on purity
recently said I had to keep talking about purity, and then I saw I had done , at least by way of example.
Well in short, the purity I think two things.
A, is a lie. There are no perfect things.
Two, if there is purity, it is not necessarily good.
We're talking about art and cultural expressions. First, there are no peoples, races and cultures "pure." The people least prone to the breed of the world are Aboriginal Australians, simply because they reached the island and stayed there. Take more or less 40.000 years living in the Neolithic. I tell you another way to make it look better because the figure is vertigo. 400 centuries. Something similar can be said of many African cultures. Not even those cultures are pure: they have all learned something from those who live in the valley next door.
If we think of a dance to dance the Kikuyu in Africa, or some music that is maintained without any Western influence in Australia, then we are talking about a cultural event that is a little less impure than ours. But what people do we travel and arrejuntarse with neighbors for the same four centuries is pure like the dogs in the street.
Ah, then one will say, but Nia, do not go, you understand when I say pure belly dancing or flamenco puro, or pure heavy metal. And for me that's like saying a pure gazpacho. True, true, but is pure? No way. A sum of disparate elements, taken from various sources, passed through the mixer, we choose and point because we feel like it and say "what has come before is history, as the following are derivations, and this zero point me to bag navel, ESO is pure. "
Anyway. It is true that I can sell ketchup like gazpacho, or American cabaret as if oriental classic. So it is that one is not calling things by their name. But just do not impress me one to sell me his art is pure. For purity, the kidneys that filter.
