I am a cultural omnivore,

0
2000
Ja sam kulturni svaštojed,
00:17
one whose daily commute
1
2000
2000
čija je svakodnevna razmena sadržaja
00:19
is made possible by attachment to an iPod --
2
4000
3000
omogućena vezanošću za iPod,
00:22
an iPod that contains Wagner and Mozart,
3
7000
2000
iPod na kome se nalaze Vagner i Mocart,
00:24
pop diva Christina Aguilera,
4
9000
2000
pop diva Kristina Agilera,
00:26
country singer Josh Turner,
5
11000
2000
kantri pevač Džoš Tarner,
00:28
gangsta rap artist Kirk Franklin,
6
13000
2000
gangsterski rep umetnik Kirk Frenklin,
00:30
concerti, symphonies and more and more.
7
15000
2000
koncerti, simfonije i još mnogo, mnogo toga.
00:32
I'm a voracious reader,
8
17000
2000
Ja sam nezasit čitalac,
00:34
a reader who deals with Ian McEwan down to Stephanie Meyer.
9
19000
3000
čitalac koji čita sve od Iana Mek Evana do Stefani Mejer.
00:37
I have read the "Twilight" tetralogy.
10
22000
3000
Pročitao sam "Sumrak" tetralogiju.
00:40
And one who lives for my home theater,
11
25000
3000
I onaj sam koji živi za svoj kućni bioskop,
00:43
a home theater where I devour DVDs, video-on-demand
12
28000
2000
kućni bioskop u kome skupljam DVD-jeve, i video-po-zahtevu
00:45
and a lot of television.
13
30000
2000
uz puno televizije.
00:47
For me, "Law and Order: SVU,"
14
32000
2000
Za mene, "Red i zakon: SVU",
00:49
Tine Fey and "30 Rock"
15
34000
2000
Tina Fej i "30Rock"
00:51
and "Judge Judy" -- "The people are real, the cases are real,
16
36000
3000
i "Sudija Džudi" - "Ljudi su stvarni, slučajevi su stvarni,
00:54
the rulings are final."
17
39000
2000
presude su konačne".
00:56
Now, I'm convinced a lot of you
18
41000
2000
E sad, ubeđen sam da mnogi od vas
00:58
probably share my passions,
19
43000
2000
verovatno dele moju strast,
01:00
especially my passion for Judge Judy,
20
45000
2000
naručito strast prema "Sudiji Džudi"
01:02
and you'd fight anybody
21
47000
2000
i da biste se suprotstavili svakome
01:04
who attempted to take her away from us,
22
49000
2000
ko bi pokušao da nam je oduzme,
01:06
but I'm a little less convinced that you share the central passion of my life,
23
51000
3000
ali sam malo manje ubeđen da delite moju osnovnu životnu strast,
01:09
a passion for the live professional performing arts,
24
54000
3000
strast za živom umetničkom izvedbom,
01:12
performing arts that represent the orchestral repertoire, yes,
25
57000
3000
umetničkom izbedbom koju predstavlja orkestarski repertoar, da,
01:15
but jazz as well, modern dance, opera,
26
60000
3000
ali i džez, moderni ples, opera,
01:18
theater and more and more and more.
27
63000
2000
pozorište i mnogo, mnogo toga.
01:20
You know, frankly
28
65000
2000
Znate, iskreno,
01:22
it's a sector that many of us who work in the field worry
29
67000
2000
to je sektor za koji, mnogi od nas koji tu rade, brinu
01:24
is being endangered and possibly dismantled
30
69000
2000
da je ugrožen, i možda čak rasformiran
01:26
by technology.
31
71000
2000
dolaskom tehnologije.
01:28
While we initially heralded the Internet
32
73000
2000
Iako smo automatski proglasili internet
01:30
as the fantastic new marketing device
33
75000
2000
fanstastičnim novim marketinškim alatom
01:32
that was going to solve all our problems,
34
77000
2000
koji će rešiti sve naše probleme,
01:34
we now realize that the Internet is, if anything,
35
79000
2000
sada shvatamo da je internet, ako ništa drugo,
01:36
too effective in that regard.
36
81000
2000
suviše efektan u tom smislu.
01:38
Depending on who you read, an arts organization
37
83000
3000
U zavisnosti od toga šta čitate, umetnička organizacija,
01:41
or an artist, who tries to attract the attention
38
86000
2000
ili umetnik, koji pokušavaju da privuku pažnju
01:43
of a potential single ticket buyer,
39
88000
2000
potencijalnog kupca jedne karte,
01:45
now competes with between
40
90000
2000
sada se takmiči sa između
01:47
three and 5,000
41
92000
2000
tri do pet hiljada
01:49
different marketing messages
42
94000
2000
različitih marketinških poruka
01:51
a typical citizen sees every single day.
43
96000
3000
koje prosečan građanin vidi svakog dana.
01:54
We now know in fact
44
99000
2000
Zapravo, znamo da je
01:56
that technology is our biggest competitor for leisure time.
45
101000
2000
ta tehnologija naš najveći konkurent u otimanju slobodnog vremena.
01:58
Five years ago,
46
103000
2000
Pre pet godina,
02:00
Gen-X'ers spent 20.7 hours online and TV,
47
105000
3000
mladi su provodili 20,7 sati na internetu i uz TV,
02:03
the majority on TV.
48
108000
2000
ali većinom uz TV.
02:05
Gen-Y'ers spent even more --
49
110000
2000
Generacija novog milenijuma provodi čak i više -
02:07
23.8 hours, the majority online.
50
112000
2000
23.8 sati, većinom na internetu.
02:09
And now, a typical
51
114000
2000
I sad, tipičan
02:11
university entering student
52
116000
2000
student koji kreće na univerzitet
02:13
arrives at college
53
118000
2000
stiže na koledž
02:15
already having spent
54
120000
2000
sa već provedenih
02:17
20,000 hours online
55
122000
2000
20.000 sati na internetu
02:19
and an additional 10,000 hours
56
124000
2000
i dodatnih 10.000 sati
02:21
playing video games --
57
126000
2000
igrajući video igre,
02:23
a stark reminder that we operate
58
128000
2000
ovo je samo ozbiljan podsetnik
02:25
in a cultural context
59
130000
2000
kulturološkog konteksta
02:27
where video games now outsell
60
132000
2000
društva u kome su video igre prodavanije
02:29
music and movie recordings combined.
61
134000
3000
od muzike i filmova zajedno.
02:33
Moreover, we're afraid that technology
62
138000
2000
Šta više, bojim se da je tehnologija
02:35
has altered our very assumptions of cultural consumption.
63
140000
3000
izmenila samu pretpostavku kulturne potrošnje.
02:38
Thanks to the Internet,
64
143000
2000
Zahvaljujući internetu,
02:40
we believe we can get anything we want whenever we want it,
65
145000
3000
verujemo da možemo dobiti sve što želimo, kad god to poželimo,
02:43
delivered to our own doorstep.
66
148000
2000
isporučeno na naš kućni prag.
02:45
We can shop at three in the morning or eight at night,
67
150000
2000
Možemo kupovati u tri ujutu ili u osam uveče,
02:47
ordering jeans tailor-made for our unique body-types.
68
152000
3000
naručujući farmerke napravljene po kroju za našu jedinstvenu telesnu građu.
02:50
Expectations of personalization
69
155000
2000
Očekivanja personalizacije
02:52
and customization
70
157000
2000
i prilagođavanja
02:54
that the live performing arts --
71
159000
2000
koje živo izvođene umetnosti -
02:56
which have set curtain times, set venues,
72
161000
3000
koje imaju određeno vreme i određeno mesto,
02:59
attendant inconveniences of travel, parking and the like --
73
164000
3000
gde se posetilac sreće sa neugodnošću putovanja, parkiranja i slično -
03:02
simply cannot meet.
74
167000
2000
jednostavno ne mogu da ispune.
03:04
And we're all acutely aware:
75
169000
2000
I svi smo izuzetno svesni sledećeg:
03:06
what's it going to mean in the future
76
171000
2000
šta će u budućnosti značiti
03:08
when we ask someone to pay a hundred dollars
77
173000
2000
kad zatražimo od nekog da plati sto dolara
03:10
for a symphony, opera or ballet ticket,
78
175000
3000
za simfonijski koncert, operu ili kartu za balet,
03:13
when that cultural consumer is used to downloading on the internet
79
178000
3000
od kulturnog potrošača koji je navikao da to skida sa interneta
03:16
24 hours a day
80
181000
2000
24 sata dnevno
03:18
for 99 cents a song or for free?
81
183000
2000
za 99 centi po pesmi, ili besplatno?
03:22
These are enormous questions
82
187000
2000
Ovo su velika pitanja
03:24
for those of us who work in this terrain.
83
189000
2000
za one koji rade na tom terenu.
03:26
But as particular as they feel to us,
84
191000
2000
Ali posebno za one koji to osećaju,
03:28
we know we're not alone.
85
193000
2000
znamo da nismo sami.
03:30
All of us are engaged
86
195000
2000
Svi mi smo angažovani
03:32
in a seismic, fundamental
87
197000
2000
u seizmičkom, osnovnom
03:34
realignment of culture and communications,
88
199000
2000
prestrojavanju kulture i komunikacije,
03:36
a realignment that is shaking and decimating
89
201000
2000
prestrojavanju koje drma i desetkuje
03:38
the newspaper industry, the magazine industry,
90
203000
3000
industriju novina i magazina,
03:41
the book and publishing industry and more.
91
206000
3000
knjišku i izdavačku industriju, i dalje.
03:45
Saddled in the performing arts as we are, by antiquated union agreements
92
210000
3000
Smešteni u izvođačke umetnosti kako jesmo, antičkim koalicionim sporazumima
03:48
that inhibit and often prohibit
93
213000
3000
koji dozvoljavaju i često zabranjuju
03:51
mechanical reproduction and streaming,
94
216000
2000
mehančku reprodukciju i protok,
03:53
locked into large facilities
95
218000
2000
zaključani u velike ustanove
03:55
that were designed to ossify
96
220000
2000
koje su dizajnirane da okoštaju
03:57
the ideal relationship
97
222000
2000
idealnu vezu
03:59
between artist and audience
98
224000
2000
umetnika i publike
04:01
most appropriate to the 19th century
99
226000
2000
koja odgovara devetnaestom veku
04:03
and locked into a business model dependent on high ticket revenues,
100
228000
3000
i zaključani u modelu poslovanja koji zavisi od visokih prihoda od karata,
04:06
where we charge exorbitant prices.
101
231000
3000
gde naplaćujemo astronomske cene,
04:09
Many of us shudder in the wake of the collapse of Tower Records
102
234000
3000
mnoge od nas je uhvatila jeza u osvit raspada "Taur rekordsa"
04:12
and ask ourselves, "Are we next?"
103
237000
3000
uz pitanje "Da li smo mi sledeći?".
04:16
Everyone I talk to in performing arts
104
241000
2000
Svi umetnički izvođači sa kojima sam pričao
04:18
resonates to the words of Adrienne Rich,
105
243000
3000
odzvanjaju rečima Adrijane Rič,
04:21
who, in "Dreams of a Common Language," wrote,
106
246000
2000
koja je, u "Snovima o zajedničkom jeziku" napisala,
04:23
"We are out in a country that has
107
248000
2000
"Mi se nalazimo u zemlji koja nema
04:25
no language, no laws.
108
250000
2000
jezik, nema zakone.
04:27
Whatever we do together is pure invention.
109
252000
2000
Šta god uradimo zajedno predstavlja čist izum.
04:29
The maps they gave us
110
254000
2000
Mape koje su nam dali
04:31
are out of date by years."
111
256000
3000
su zastarele već godinama."
04:35
And for those of you who love the arts,
112
260000
2000
I za one koji vole umetnost,
04:37
aren't you glad you invited me here to brighten your day?
113
262000
3000
zar vam nije drago što ste me pozvali da vam ulepšam dan?
04:40
(Laughter)
114
265000
2000
(Smeh)
04:42
(Applause)
115
267000
2000
(Aplauz)
04:44
Now, rather than saying that we're on the brink of our own annihilation,
116
269000
3000
Sad, umesto da kažem da smo na ivici sopstvenog uništenja,
04:47
I prefer to believe that we are engaged in a fundamental reformation,
117
272000
3000
radije verujem da smo angažovani u fundamentalnoj reformaciji,
04:50
a reformation like the religious Reformation
118
275000
3000
reformaciji kao što je bila Reformacija religije
04:53
of the 16th century.
119
278000
2000
u šesnaestom veku.
04:55
The arts reformation, like the religious Reformation,
120
280000
3000
Reformacija umetnosti, kao i Reformacija religije
04:58
is spurred in part by technology,
121
283000
2000
je delimično podstaknuta tehnologijom,
05:00
with indeed, the printing press really leading the charge
122
285000
2000
gde je, uistinu, štamparska presa bila osnovno punjenje
05:02
on the religious Reformation.
123
287000
2000
religijske Reformacije.
05:04
Both reformations were predicated on fractious discussion,
124
289000
3000
Obe reforme su utemeljene na svađama i diskusijama,
05:07
internal self-doubt
125
292000
2000
internoj sumnji u sebe
05:09
and massive realignment of antiquated business models.
126
294000
3000
i masovnom prestrojavanju antičkog poslovnog modela.
05:12
And at heart, both reformations, I think
127
297000
2000
I duboko verujem da su obe reforme
05:14
were asking the questions:
128
299000
2000
postavile pitanja:
05:16
who's entitled to practice?
129
301000
2000
ko ima pravo da se ovim bavi?
05:18
How are they entitled to practice?
130
303000
2000
Kako su stekli pravo da se bave time?
05:20
And indeed, do we need anyone
131
305000
2000
I zapravo, da li nam je potreban neko
05:22
to intermediate for us
132
307000
2000
da posreduje za nas
05:24
in order to have an experience with a spiritual divine?
133
309000
3000
da bismo imali iskustvo sa duhovnim uzvišenjem?
05:29
Chris Anderson, someone I trust you all know,
134
314000
3000
Kris Anderson, neko za koga mislim da je svima poznat,
05:32
editor-in-chief of Wired magazine and author of "The Long Tail,"
135
317000
2000
urednik i šef "Čudnog magazina" i autor "Dugog repa"
05:34
really was the first -- for me -- to nail a lot of this.
136
319000
3000
bio je prvi, bar po meni, koji je obuhvatio mnoštvo pomenutog.
05:37
He wrote a long time ago, you know,
137
322000
2000
On je pre dosta vremena napisao, znate,
05:39
thanks to the invention of the Internet,
138
324000
2000
da su zahvaljujući izumu interneta,
05:41
web technology,
139
326000
2000
web tehnologije,
05:43
mini-cams and more,
140
328000
2000
mini kamera, i mnogo toga,
05:45
the means of artistic production
141
330000
2000
sredstva umetničke proizvodnje
05:47
have been democratized
142
332000
2000
demokratizovana
05:49
for the first time in all of human history.
143
334000
3000
prvi put u ljudskoj istoriji.
05:52
In the 1930s, if any of you wanted to make a movie,
144
337000
2000
Devetsto tridesetih, ukoliko je bilo ko od vas hteo da napravi film,
05:54
you had to work for Warner Brothers or RKO
145
339000
3000
morao je da radi za "Warner Bros" ili "RKO"
05:57
because who could afford a movie set
146
342000
2000
jer ko je mogao sebi da priušti filmski set
05:59
and lighting equipment and editing equipment
147
344000
2000
opremu za osvetljavanje, i opremu za montažu
06:01
and scoring and more?
148
346000
2000
i pozadinsku muziku i više od toga?
06:03
And now who in this room doesn't know a 14 year-old
149
348000
3000
A danas, ko u ovoj sobi ne zna četrnaestogodišnjaka
06:06
hard at work on her second, third, or fourth movie?
150
351000
2000
koji radi na svom drugom, trećem ili četvrtom filmu?
06:08
(Laughter)
151
353000
2000
(Smeh)
06:10
Similarly, the means of artistic distribution
152
355000
3000
Slično tome, sredstva umetničke distribucije
06:13
have been democratized for the first time in human history.
153
358000
3000
su demokratizovana po prvi put u ljudskoj istoriji.
06:16
Again, in the '30s, Warner Brothers, RKO did that for you.
154
361000
3000
Ponovo, devetsto tridesetih "Warner Bros." i "RKO" su radili to za vas.
06:19
Now, go to YouTube, Facebook;
155
364000
2000
Sad, idite na "Jutjub", "Fejsbuk";
06:21
you have worldwide distribution
156
366000
2000
imate globalnu distribuciju
06:23
without leaving the privacy of your own bedroom.
157
368000
3000
bez napuštanja privatnosti vaše spavaće sobe.
06:27
This double impact is occasioning
158
372000
2000
Dupli udar je zadesio
06:29
a massive redefinition of the cultural market,
159
374000
3000
masovno redefinisanje kulturnog tržišta,
06:32
a time when anyone is a potential author.
160
377000
3000
vreme u kome je svako potencijalni autor.
06:36
Frankly, what we're seeing now in this environment
161
381000
2000
Iskreno, ono što sad vidimo u ovom okruženju
06:38
is a massive time,
162
383000
2000
je ogroman trenutak,
06:40
when the entire world is changing
163
385000
2000
kada se ceo svet menja,
06:42
as we move from a time when audience numbers are plummeting.
164
387000
3000
kada napuštamo vreme u kome se publika pecala.
06:45
But the number of arts participants,
165
390000
2000
Ali broj učesnika u umetnosti,
06:47
people who write poetry, who sing songs,
166
392000
3000
ljudi koji pišu poeziju, koji pevaju pesme,
06:50
who perform in church choirs,
167
395000
2000
ili nastupaju u crkvenom horu,
06:52
is exploding beyond our wildest imaginations.
168
397000
3000
napreduje izvan granica naših najluđih zamisli.
06:55
This group, others have called the "pro ams,"
169
400000
3000
Ovu grupu neki nazivaju "pro ams",
06:58
amateur artists doing work at a professional level.
170
403000
2000
amateri umetnici koji daju izvedbe profesionalnog nivoa.
07:00
You see them on YouTube, in dance competitions,
171
405000
2000
Vidite ih na "Jutjubu", na plesnim takmičenjima,
07:02
film festivals and more.
172
407000
2000
na filmskim festivalima, i dalje.
07:04
They are radically expanding
173
409000
2000
Oni radikalno šire
07:06
our notions of the potential of an aesthetic vocabulary,
174
411000
3000
naše shvatanje potencijala estetskog rečnika,
07:09
while they are challenging and undermining
175
414000
3000
dok izazivaju i podrivaju
07:12
the cultural autonomy of our traditional institutions.
176
417000
3000
kulturnu autonomiju naših tradicionalnih institucija.
07:15
Ultimately, we now live in a world
177
420000
2000
Na kraju, živimo u svetu
07:17
defined not by consumption,
178
422000
2000
definisanom, ne upotrebom,
07:19
but by participation.
179
424000
2000
već učešćem.
07:22
But I want to be clear,
180
427000
2000
Ali želim da podvučem,
07:24
just as the religious Reformation did not spell the end
181
429000
2000
isto kao što religijska Reformacija nije objavila kraj
07:26
to the formal Church or to the priesthood;
182
431000
3000
formalnoj Crkvi ili svešteništvu,
07:29
I believe that our artistic institutions
183
434000
2000
verujem da će naše umetničke institucije
07:31
will continue to have importance.
184
436000
2000
nastaviti da imaju važnost.
07:33
They currently are the best opportunities
185
438000
2000
Oni su trenutno najbolja prilika
07:35
for artists to have lives of economic dignity --
186
440000
2000
za umetnike da ostvare život ekonomskog dostojanstva,
07:37
not opulence -- of dignity.
187
442000
3000
ne bogatstva, već dostojanstva.
07:40
And they are the places where artists
188
445000
2000
One su mesto gde umetnici
07:42
who deserve and want to work at a certain scale of resources
189
447000
2000
koji zaslužuju i žele da rade sa izvesnim nivoom resursa
07:44
will find a home.
190
449000
2000
mogu da nađu dom.
07:46
But to view them as synonymous
191
451000
2000
Ali posmatrati ih kao sinonim
07:48
with the entirety of the arts community
192
453000
2000
za celovitost umetničke zajednice
07:50
is, by far, too short-sighted.
193
455000
3000
je, u najmanju ruku, kratkovido.
07:53
And indeed, while we've tended to polarize
194
458000
2000
I zaista, dok pokušavamo da razdvojimo
07:55
the amateur from the professional,
195
460000
2000
amatere od profesionalaca,
07:57
the single most exciting development
196
462000
2000
jedini najuzbudljiviji razvoj
07:59
in the last five to 10 years
197
464000
2000
u proteklih pet do deset godina
08:01
has been the rise
198
466000
2000
je bio uspon
08:03
of the professional hybrid artist,
199
468000
2000
profesionalnih otmenih umetnika,
08:05
the professional artist
200
470000
2000
profesionalnih umetnika,
08:07
who works, not primarily in the concert hall or on the stage;
201
472000
2000
koji rade, ne primarno u koncertnim salama ili na pozornici,
08:09
but most frequently around
202
474000
2000
već najviše oko
08:11
women's rights, or human rights,
203
476000
2000
prava žena ili ljudskih prava,
08:13
or on global warming issues or AIDS relief for more --
204
478000
3000
ili na globalnom zagrevanju ili pomoći za SIDA-u,
08:16
not out of economic necessity,
205
481000
2000
ne zbog ekonomske potrebe,
08:18
but out of a deep, organic conviction
206
483000
2000
već zbog dubokog, organskog uverenja
08:20
that the work that she or he, is called to do
207
485000
3000
da rad koji su on ili ona pozvani da urade
08:23
cannot be accomplished in the traditional
208
488000
2000
ne može biti urađen na tradicionalni način
08:25
hermetic arts environment.
209
490000
2000
u zatvorenoj umetničkoj sredini.
08:27
Today's dance world is not defined solely
210
492000
3000
Današnji svet plesa nije definisan samo
08:30
by the Royal Winnipeg Ballet or the National Ballet of Canada,
211
495000
3000
"Kraljevskim baletom" Vinipega, ili "Nacionalnim baletom" Kanade,
08:33
but by Liz Lerman's Dance Exchange --
212
498000
3000
već i Liz Dermaninom "Plesnom Razmenom",
08:36
a multi-generational, professional dance company,
213
501000
3000
multigeneracijskom, profesionalnom plesnom grupom,
08:39
whose dancers range in age from 18 to 82,
214
504000
3000
čiji igrači imaju od osamnaest do osamdeset i dve godine,
08:42
and who work with genomic scientists
215
507000
2000
koji rade sa genetskim istraživačima
08:44
to embody the DNA strand
216
509000
2000
na otelotvorenju DNK mreže
08:46
and with nuclear physicists at CERN.
217
511000
3000
i sa nuklearnim fizičarima sa CERN-a.
08:49
Today's professional theater community
218
514000
2000
Današnja profesionlna pozorišna zajednica
08:51
is defined, not only the Shaw and Stratford Festivals,
219
516000
3000
nije definisana samo "Šo" ili "Stratford" festivalima
08:54
but by the Cornerstone Theater of Los Angeles --
220
519000
3000
već i "Temeljac teatrom" iz Los Anđelesa,
08:57
a collective of artists that after 9/11,
221
522000
3000
kolektivom umetnika koji je, posle 11. septembra
09:00
brought together 10 different religious communities --
222
525000
3000
spojio 10 različitih religijskih zajednica -
09:03
the Bahia, the Catholic,
223
528000
2000
Bahie, Katolike,
09:05
the Muslim, the Jewish,
224
530000
2000
Muslimane, Jevreje,
09:07
even the Native American
225
532000
2000
čak i Indijance
09:09
and the gay and lesbian communities of faith,
226
534000
2000
i gej i lezbejske verske zajednice,
09:11
helping them create their own individual plays
227
536000
3000
pomažući im da naprave sopstvene individualne predstave
09:14
and one massive play,
228
539000
2000
i jednu veliku predstavu
09:16
where they explored the differences in their faith
229
541000
2000
u kojoj su istražili razlike unutar svojih vera
09:18
and found commonality
230
543000
2000
i našli istovetnost
09:20
as an important first step
231
545000
2000
kao važan privi korak
09:22
toward cross-community healing.
232
547000
2000
ka izlečenju društva raznolikih zajednica.
09:25
Today's performers, like Rhodessa Jones,
233
550000
2000
Današnji izvođači, kao što je Rodesa Džons,
09:27
work in women's prisons,
234
552000
2000
rade u ženskim zatvorima,
09:29
helping women prisoners articulate the pain of incarceration,
235
554000
3000
pomažući ženama da artikulišu bol zatočeništva,
09:32
while today's playwrights and directors work with youth gangs
236
557000
2000
dok današnji tekstopisci i reditelji rade sa mladim bandama
09:34
to find alternate channels to violence
237
559000
3000
da bi pronašli alternativni kanal nasilju
09:37
and more and more and more.
238
562000
3000
i mnogo, mnogo više.
09:40
And indeed, I think, rather than being annihilated,
239
565000
3000
I stvarno, mislim da, umesto da budu uništene,
09:43
the performing arts are posed on the brink of a time
240
568000
2000
izvođačke umetnosti su postavljene na ivicu vremena
09:45
when we will be more important
241
570000
2000
u kome ćemo biti važniji
09:47
than we have ever been.
242
572000
2000
nego što smo ikad bili.
09:49
You know, we've said for a long time,
243
574000
2000
Znate, davno smo rekli da
09:51
we are critical to the health of the economic communities in your town.
244
576000
3000
smo važni za zdravlje ekonomskih zajednica u vašem gradu.
09:54
And absolutely --
245
579000
2000
I apsolutno.
09:56
I hope you know that every dollar spent on a performing arts ticket in a community
246
581000
3000
Nadam se da znate da svaki dolar potrošen na ulaznicu za umetničku izvedbu u zajednici
09:59
generates five to seven additional dollars for the local economy,
247
584000
3000
generiše pet do sedam dolara za lokalnu ekonomiju,
10:02
dollars spent in restaurants or on parking,
248
587000
2000
dolara potrošenih na restoran ili na parking,
10:04
at the fabric stores where we buy fabric for costumes,
249
589000
3000
u prodavnicama materijala gde kupujemo tkaninu za kostime,
10:07
the piano tuner who tunes the instruments and more.
250
592000
3000
štimača klavira koji namešta instrumente, i dalje.
10:10
But the arts are going to be more important to economies
251
595000
2000
Ali umetnost će biti važnija za ekonomiju
10:12
as we go forward,
252
597000
2000
kako napredujemo,
10:14
especially in industries we can't even imagine yet,
253
599000
3000
posebno u industrijama koje još uvek ne možemo da zamislimo,
10:17
just as they have been central to the iPod
254
602000
2000
kao što je bila osnova za iPod
10:19
and the computer game industries,
255
604000
2000
ili industriju kompjuterskih igara,
10:21
which few, if any of us
256
606000
2000
koju je malo ko, ako i bilo ko od nas
10:23
come have foreseen 10 to 15 years ago.
257
608000
2000
predvideo pre deset ili petnaest godina.
10:26
Business leadership will depend more and more
258
611000
2000
Poslovno vođstvo će zavisiti sve više i više
10:28
on emotional intelligence,
259
613000
2000
od emocionalne inteligencije,
10:30
the ability to listen deeply,
260
615000
2000
sposobnosti da se sluša pažljivo,
10:32
to have empathy,
261
617000
2000
sa se saoseća,
10:34
to articulate change, to motivate others --
262
619000
2000
da se artikuliše promena, da se motivišu ostali -
10:36
the very capacities
263
621000
2000
sam potencijal
10:38
that the arts cultivate with every encounter.
264
623000
3000
koji umetnosti stvaraju sa svakim susretom.
10:41
Especially now,
265
626000
2000
Posebno sad,
10:43
as we all must confront
266
628000
2000
kada se moramo suočiti sa
10:45
the fallacy of a market-only orientation,
267
630000
3000
manjkavošću isključivo tržišne orijentisanosti,
10:48
uninformed by social conscience;
268
633000
2000
obučene u socijalnu svest,
10:50
we must seize and celebrate the power of the arts
269
635000
3000
moramo ugrabiti i slaviti moć umetnosti
10:53
to shape our individual and national characters,
270
638000
3000
da oblikuje naš individualni i nacionalni karakter
10:56
and especially characters of the young people,
271
641000
3000
a posebno karaktere mladih ljudi
10:59
who all too often, are subjected to bombardment of sensation,
272
644000
3000
koji su, prečesto, subjekti bombardovanja senzacijama,
11:02
rather than digested experience.
273
647000
2000
pre nego svarljivim iskustvima.
11:05
Ultimately, especially now in this world,
274
650000
3000
Kad podvučemo crtu, pogotovo sada, u ovom svetu,
11:08
where we live in a context
275
653000
2000
živimo u kontekstu
11:10
of regressive and onerous immigration laws,
276
655000
3000
regresivnih i tegobnih imigracionih zakona,
11:13
in reality TV that thrives on humiliation,
277
658000
3000
"reality" televizije koja teži poniženju
11:16
and in a context of analysis,
278
661000
2000
i u kontekstu analize,
11:18
where the thing we hear most repeatedly,
279
663000
2000
gde stvar koju čujemo najčešće,
11:20
day-in, day-out in the United States,
280
665000
3000
dan za danom u Ujedinjenim Državama,
11:23
in every train station, every bus station, every plane station is,
281
668000
2000
na svakoj železničkoj stanici, svakoj autobuskoj stanici, svakom aerodrumu jeste,
11:25
"Ladies and gentlemen,
282
670000
2000
"Dame i gospodo,
11:27
please report any suspicious behavior
283
672000
2000
molimo vas da prijavite svako sumnjivo ponašanje
11:29
or suspicious individuals
284
674000
2000
ili sumnjivog pojedinca
11:31
to the authorities nearest you,"
285
676000
2000
najbližim vlastima",
11:33
when all of these ways we are encouraged
286
678000
2000
kada smo na sve načine ohrabrivani
11:35
to view our fellow human being with hostility
287
680000
2000
da vidimo priljateljsko ljudsko biće sa neprijateljstvom
11:37
and fear and contempt and suspicion.
288
682000
3000
i strahom i prezirom i sumnjom.
11:41
The arts, whatever they do, whenever they call us together,
289
686000
3000
Umetnosti, šta god radile, kad god nas okupe,
11:44
invite us to look at our fellow human being
290
689000
2000
pozivaju nas da gledamo prijateljska ljudska bića
11:46
with generosity and curiosity.
291
691000
3000
sa velikodušnošću i interesovanjem.
11:50
God knows, if we ever needed
292
695000
2000
Bog sam zna, ako nam je ikad trebala
11:52
that capacity in human history,
293
697000
2000
ta sposobnost u ljudskoj istoriji,
11:54
we need it now.
294
699000
3000
treba nam sad.
12:00
You know, we're bound together,
295
705000
2000
Znate, mi smo povezani,
12:02
not, I think by technology, entertainment and design,
296
707000
3000
ne mislim tehnologijom, zabavom i dizajnom,
12:05
but by common cause.
297
710000
2000
već zajedničkim ciljem.
12:07
We work to promote healthy vibrant societies,
298
712000
3000
Mi radimo na promociji zdravih živahnih zajednica,
12:10
to ameliorate human suffering,
299
715000
3000
na umanjenu ljudske patnje,
12:13
to promote a more thoughtful,
300
718000
2000
na promociji jednog pažljivijeg,
12:15
substantive, empathic world order.
