Organizational Aesthetics

Abstract

Traditionally, aesthetics has to do with ‘the beautiful’, which may be found in fine art, applied art, and nature. Traditionally, aesthetics also has to do with the enjoyment that not only art works but also actions and nature can give. The beautiful promotes life, as Kant puts it, 1 while Aristotle many years earlier claimed that ‘[p]leasure completes the activity not as the inherent state does, but as an end which supervenes as the bloom of youth does on those in the flower of their age’. 2 Later came ‘the ugly’. In the following, we shall limit ourselves to looking at the relationship between aesthetics and communication. This requires some explanation. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
