Here's a question for all of you to answer: What kind (or kinds) of art moves you?  And why does it do that?  What are you passionate about?  What stuff do you read/see/hear that makes you understand something deeper?  You get the idea.  I had been thinking of how I love music and writing.  Naturally, I wondered what other people liked.  So I thought I'd start a little conversation about it on my blog.

And to start off, here's mine.

First and foremost, I'm a music guy.  I think music is the best art form on the planet!  Anything from John Williams to Kutless will get me excited.  I feel like music is a universal expression (any human can understand a song).  Every culture has it.  Also, merging that universal aspect (i.e. the non-lingual portion) with poetic words can express meaning or revelation better than anything.

That said, reading a book still gets me.  A great storyteller can capture my imagination and send it off to places I never knew to look for.  Movies apply here too.  I love Star Wars (all six!) for its story.  It's an epic, and it deals with deep human emotions.  Babylon 5 also has that kind of story (although I'm only through season 2).

Okay, so what kind of art do you like and why?  I'd love to hear from you all.
