Current philosophies of art remain sadly dominated by visions of its end and lamentations of decline. Defining the very notions of art and the aesthetic as special products of Western modernity, they suggest that postmodern challenges to traditional high culture pose a devastating danger to art's future. Richard Shusterman's new book cuts through the seductive confusions of these views by tracing the earthy roots of aesthetic experience and showing how the recent flourishing of aesthetic forms outside modernity's sacralized realm of fine art evince the persistent presence of an artistic impulse far deeper and more durable than the modernist moment. Performing Live defends the abiding power of aesthetic experience by exploring its diverse roles, methods, and meanings, especially in fields marginal to traditional aesthetics but now most vibrantly alive in today's culture and new media. Ranging from rap, techno, and country music to cinema, cyberspace and urban design, Shusterman develops his radical theory of "somaesthetics," charting the complex network of bodily arts so prominent in contemporary life and self-styling. By blending concrete aesthetic analysis with insightful social critique, Shusterman, a well-known pragmatist philosopher, provides a rich menu and critical guide for today's pursuit of the art of living.

If you are a musician who wants to discover how to connect with any crowd, win them over, and make them love you and your music, then this book will teach you the exact methods used by the most successful musicians on the planet.Have you ever been on stage, performing your music, only to discover that the crowd is just not that into you?Does the audience sometimes seem unimpressed with your show?Even though your music is good, are there times when you just can't seem to "grab" the crowd and you don't know what to say or do to draw them in and win them over?If you answered yes to any of these questions, you are certainly not alone. As musicians, we have probably all had that experience. And it's a really awful feeling, isn't it? You want the crowd to love you, and when they don't, it's embarrassing... and really hard to take.But the good news is that it's very likely that the problem is not that you lack talent or passion for your music. It's much more likely that the problem is in the WAY you present your music (and yourself) to the audience. You are just not connecting with the crowd.Here's what I'm talking about... as musicians, we put our hearts and souls into our music and we just want to share it with the rest of the world, but in the real world, it's just not that easy.WHEN YOU ARE ON STAGE, IT WOULD BE MUCH EASIER IF THE AUDIENCE WOULD JUDGE YOU ONLY ON THE MUSIC YOU PERFORM, but the truth is... THEY WON'T.They will also judge you on...** What you say to them between songs.** How confident you appear to be.** What your attitude is toward them.** Whether you smile and appear friendly.** How you handle mistakes on stage.** How you make them feel.** Whether you touch them emotionally.** How much energy you project on stage.** Plus a whole lot more that is beyond just the physical act of making good music.You know, when you think about it... success in the music business is really about making the audience happy. THAT'S how you get lots of fans and lots of gigs. And if you want to get paid for what you do, then it's important to remember that in the music business the money is in the pockets of the fans. So if you want to be successful, PUT THE AUDIENCE FIRST IN ALL THAT YOU DO... not yourself... not even your music. ALWAYS make them your highest priority and they will love you for it.Understand that the audience comes to your live show for one reason only... THEY WANT TO BE ENTERTAINED AND HAVE A GOOD TIME. It takes more than just good music to have a great live show. AND THAT'S WHERE MOST PERFORMERS FAIL. They don't know how to engage the audience and make that important connection. And the truth is... IF THEY DON'T LIKE YOU AS A PERSON then it won't really matter how good of a musician you are.So let me ask you this... wouldn't it feel great to have the audience in the palm of your hand, knowing that they love what you do? How would it feel to perform for hundreds or maybe even thousands of raving fans and finally get the recognition you deserve? How would it feel to experience the pure, adrenalin pumping excitement that happens when you really kill it on stage.Don't waste all the months and years of hard work you've put into developing your musical talent just because you don't know how to present your music to the audience in the best way possible. You owe it to yourself (and your music) to discover how to really grab the crowd and make them love what you do.Now, forgive me for sounding a little overly dramatic here, but... think of what it may cost you in the future if you don't have this knowledge. What will your show look like a year from now? Will it be any better than it is now? Will you have more fans than you have now? Will you be making more money with your music than you are now? Or will you still be struggling along... trying to figure out why people aren't crazy about you and your music?Is your musical success worth $29.95? ORDER TODAY.
