Storytelling by arranging four videos

Powerful clips. Thanks.

Aesthetics is definitely shifting over time. Even something we consider as objective can also shift:

I myself believe that we can definitely learn to appreciate different things. When we say we don't enjoy something (or simply deciding something is stupid), we are actually saying we are lack of the ability to appreciate/understand it.

On the other hand, I have also observed that not all artists are sincere, i.e. they create something they don't personally believe to be artistic but present it as something avant-garde.

By the way, os a side note, some comments left after the video show the reactions of the audience of our time. I am actually quite amazed to see a video posted as sarcasm would actually attract the subjects in question to come out to defend themselves. Historians (or historical musicologists in this context) can probably find valuable information for research from those comments, too.

Thanks for the great comment, TK.

There is also this:

I don't think what is being talked about in this video really applies to shifting music tastes, but something else tangentially related.
