| These days such deathly still memorial silence in the theater may not be rare, but this silence is itself disquieting, unnatural; the audience collectively exhaled held breath when the minute was over and the performing could resume. I suspect most editors have a moment of held breath at this point in a project -- when the early stages have been so thrilling, so promising, that you almost can't let yourself hope that the finished art will live up to that promise. Imagine a medical technology so advanced that with one held breath a doctor can view a three-dimensional holographic image of a patient's heart, brain, abdomen or other area of the body detecting any tumors or masses and diagnosing diseases and ailments once only diagnosable with surgery. |
