New perspective on an familiar subject

I’m thinking about my trip to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art recently.  They have a special tour they put on once a month for members where they spotlight some aspect of the museum; this particular month it was a 45 minute tour of 3 pieces in the permanent collection.  These are pieces we have seem many times - the twist was we saw them set to music. Our docent had paired 3 pieces of art with 3 separate pieces of music and it was amazing!  The paintings and music on their own would have been enough, but the combination of the two created a new third entity.  I saw the art differently; it came to life, offered new perspectives, and pulled me in on a deeper level. 

 

I wonder how many things you see on a daily basis that you don’t really see anymore.  Perhaps you can add some music and see your work from a new perspective this week.  How does that affect how you show up in the workplace, how you see the work you do, your perception of your co- workers and boss?
