In real life 04 - April 4th - The anonymous orchestra

-->
What I find amazing in New York is the dedication and intensity of peoples' behavior in everyday life. What ever they do they do with conviction, humor and style. The way the people dress, do their jobs, talk, walk or otherwise move through the street is beautiful to watch. And of course they record it and put it on the web. But when I watched this in real life on a daily basis I wondered if this city really needs professional artists.
Nobody seems to be afraid to dance or sing at work, in the subway or just walking down the street. Maybe that is why the New York street artists have to be damn spectacular ... or ... far out eccentric.
Movie maker Paolo Paci has webcasted a great number of recordings of interesting street performances, many of them in New York where he lives. He called this legion of creative street workers "the anonymous orchestra" and opened a youtube channel dedicated to them. I really enjoyed watching it. Maybe you should check it out!
