Human beings are emotionally moved by the conscious and unconscious movements of human beings, animals and plants --- the movements as a proof of life for the mortal existence. Human beings are emotionally moved by non-living things, through the emotional identification with them, through the mechanism of cognitive engagement. The essence of human beings resides in the consciouness of the limitation of life, the limitation defined by the death. Art is born within this limited nature of life. The history of art is characterised solely by the transitions of consciouness. Science, to what extent it goes, cannot remove this limitation of the life of human beings.
