Mmmm, Cloud 9 - The painted faces

Today we were lectured on something I would say it to be a spectacular performance. It was all about the Cirque du Soleil, a grand circus performance probably not made anywhere else. I have to say, the performance and their performer really put up their acts as if it were something real they have to face in real life. But this is not an amusement much because to them, it's how they work. The thing about Cirque du Soleil that impresses me is that the director and his fellow workers have the potentiality of coming out with great, extraordinary ideas. The way they show their emotion visually, is something fascinating. For me, It's hard to portray things that are usually said in words to be done visually such as emotions.

The way I see it is that most western people can generate great ideas, something really out of the box, until the box is hidden 110%. From what I can say is that they always reflect on their life experience and improve it to create something far better than what it was once. And a way to get great ideas is to always have yourself thinking, anywhere you go. Think of the possibilities that you may be able to 'plus it' and come out with things that wouldn't imagine to do it. This was our ideas will shine with creativity and will give a unique experience to the viewers and or users.
Since I haven't been or seen any circus much in my life, I guess there isn't much that I can talk about. Cirque du Soleil is a unique experience which I may not be able to compare with other things that I've experienced.
It's not my way of walking here and there at a busy street, but watching something as spectacular as the 'Cirque du Soleil' on the screen is enough for me to know who awesome it would've been if I went and see it live.
