Topics
Dacher Keltner：敬畏和美感是与人生目标紧密相连的两种情感状态。敬畏感尤其能促使人们寻求意义，并带来诸多益处，例如谦逊、分享和归属感。研究表明，人们每周都会经历几次敬畏感，它并非特权体验，也并非需要刻意追求，通过练习和了解，敬畏感会更加丰富。 ELEW：音乐家通过融合不同音乐类型的元素，例如爵士乐的即兴性和摇滚乐的能量，创造出独特的音乐风格。音乐能够激发敬畏和奇迹之感，因为它与人类的意识和情感体验紧密相连。 Frank Wilczek & Katherine Cotter：科学和艺术中的美感都与对称性、意外性和意义的探索有关。科学中的美感可以作为发现真理的指南，但需要经受经验检验；艺术中的美感则能促进人们的情感福祉和社会联系，并被视为重要的公共资源。艺术创作和科学研究过程都包含从主题到细节的创造性过程，人们在欣赏艺术和科学的过程中，都会寻求意义和与自身经验的联系。 Frank Wilczek：科学中的美感，特别是对称性，是指导科学发现的重要因素，但最终科学结论仍需经受经验检验。美感能激发研究，但不能替代实证。 Katherine Cotter：艺术中的美感能促进情感福祉，减少压力，增强活力，并帮助人们建立意义感和社会联系。艺术博物馆等机构应被视为公共资源，以促进人们的繁荣。艺术体验并非被动，而是包含创造性解读的过程。
