Can arts engagement for entertainment, relaxation or as a hobby impact general population health?
Question
53 answers
  • 17 Jun 2013
Members of the general population engage in the arts as a hobby, for entertainment, or as a form of relaxation. Yet most arts and health research focuses on the benefits of art therapy, on specific projects, or specific target groups (e.g. young people) rather than the general population. I was wondering what the evidence is surrounding arts engagement and general population health? Also, should we be focusing our efforts on population based arts/health studies as a way of gaining community support for the arts and arts funding?

Answer
In my teaching experience, which started in my teens (I assisted my artist educator mother with her classes!) the vaue of self expression and satisfaction in art can't be overstated. When I was teaching K-8 art classes we were able to tie in the history, geography, and social science content of their curriculum into art history and allow the kids to create their own version of Van Gogh, Renoir, cave paintings, and Picasso. We tied their math to 3-D art with toothpicks, popsicle sticks, and clay. If they "get it" that our human world needs people to design eveything we wear, use, and view, just as much as they need IT folks, doctors, lawyers, and gardeners, it can be a game changer. Kids who were "problem students" were made leaders to channel their energy and desire for recognition, it gave them a reason to stay in school because they felt empowered. Stressed out grown ups and elders need to play as much as they need to eat. Art should be the LAST thing we cut from schools, nursing homes, or adult schools.

Economics of the entertainment industry: where rationality assumption is violated everywhere all the time.
Question
12 answers
  • 23 Apr 2013
Ever since I was introduced to the basic principles of economics, I was told and made to believe that all economic decision making agents are rational. Despite its essence in the mainstream arguments, this assumption is far from being true in the entertainment industry where emotions serve as the key signals for doing or not something. From economic point of view, this industry mobilizes huge amount of capital in both developed and developing countries alike. The speed of money is also arguably highest in this sector.
I was wondering if there have been formal and rigorous studies conducted to explain the behavioral whereabouts of people in the entertainment industry.

Answer
Exactly... especially that in the last 20-30 years a special topic called "entertainment economics" or "emotional economics", where decisions are made rather a haphazard way...It is the principle of "post-modern" marketing or similar studies...and the worst is still ahead of us!!!
