Scroll Away

Where do you draw the line between entertainment and art though? When I connect with a piece of music, my time never feels wasted. Entertainment, on the other hand, is more of a product to be consumed and promptly discarded. However, the definitions are not so clear cut and it depends more on how we interact with art and entertainment.

Yes I completely agree. I was speaking very "matter of fact" and overgeneralizing to get my point across. I agree though that it is not all wasted time and even that not all work is meaningless. I was thinking more in terms of what you were writing about - the mundane social media scroll in which an hour can pass without us even opening an article to read it or watching a video in its entirety. Art, in all its forms, can be very meaning and influential though. It can inspire and provoke.
