Entertaiment is a powerful force that can bring joy, stimulate learning, or create a mega-financial empire. However, it can also be a destructive force that can foster a culture of greed and addiction. It is important to keep in mind that entertainment is not a substitute for the real world, but a supplement to it.
From the Fall 2011 issue of Transformational Entertainment News.
The word entertainment derives from the Medieval Latin intertenere, a contraction of its Indo-European root ten, meaning “to hold inside.”
The art of entertaining is an ancient practice that has shown a remarkable capacity for creative remix and longevity.
