" an aesthethic experience is more than the sum of its parts (knowledge, emotion, perceptual impact and communication): in fact it begins precisely when the various dimensions of consciousness meld together and we are no longer aware of "thinking", "feeling", "seeing" or "communicating" as separate processes. Total Immersion in the work of art is the magic experts and laypersons hope for when they visit a museum, but which they rarely attain."
