An Experiment in Modern Human Behavior

So what happens when you take America's top classical musician who's paid more than $1,000 per minute to play, drop him in a Washington metro station during rush hour with his $3.5 million violin constructed in 1710 and have him just play?

The article is long, but it's astounding what happens.  Worth the read.  There's video from a hidden camera embedded into the article also.


Let this be a reminder that sometimes pulling the iPod headphones out, stopping and appreciating beauty is something we all should do a little more often.
