Well, pretty awesome because it allows for a person or group to capture diverse emotions, aesthetics and pretty much everything in a format that allows other people to understand and feel it. It's also cool on a primal and cultural level, as it portrays different cultures and sub-cultures and human behavior. And on top of that, it's enjoyable! I do worry sometimes that music can act as a consumable like other media, but I try to limit myself and focus my energy on the right parts. Thanks for the question.

What do you think the difference between consuming music and treating it as an art form is

Oh I'm not sure there is a distinct difference actually. I just sometimes listen to music just to have something playing, and I strive to listen with more attention and intent. I think "consuming" isn't necessarily bad, it's just something that got a little stuck in my head. What do you think?

I'm not sure. I listen to music to experience other worlds the creative types like to create. I also like listening to music while I'm working my jobs so I can pretend I'm culturally enriching myself while my value gets extracted.
