But here it often seems that efforts are made to keep a critical mass from sparking anything not tightly pre-formulated into life.<br /><br />Sadly, there’s just no basic recipe for making television. And the necessary chemical reactions can’t even begin to happen when the artistic ingredients are isolated from one another or not influencing and restructuring each other on a daily basis."<br /><br />And, I think, one of the chemicals needed for the reaction not mentioned here is the audience. <br /><br />Not only are the artistic ingredients often isolated from one another, they are all isolated a long way from the audience.<br /><br /> <br />John McFetridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09442198820998606682noreply@blogger.com
