This episode is in two parts. In Part One I explore some ideas about beauty, both those that define beauty as an ideal or transcendent quality, and those that consider beauty as an experience and mode of attention. I discuss concepts of beauty that focus on perfection and permanence and those that focus on imperfection and impermanence. In Part Two I offer a poetic alternative rendering of what I have said in Part One – hopefully evoking experiences of beauty in the images, rhythms and sound of music and words.
