Probably not music if you want to express a very specific, coherent narrative. Art can do this, but the length has to be short, and there is always going to be a degree of ambiguity.

Written material (wherever the hell it appears) would be the easiest way to tell a narrative. But, by itself it can be very difficult to induce emotion as easy as music or art.

Actually, when you think of it, Film/video games/visual novels should theoretically be the "best" because they blend elements of all three. But really, it's a matter of preference. Sometimes people don't want flashy images to kill their imagination, pre-set emotional cues in music, or even a direct narrative as with writing. Meh

So you don't think any medium is intrinsically better than any other, but you want people to debate over it?

Exactly, Intrinsically means to be objectively, (ex. The Iliad was Greek). It means that something is true

Music and Literature are both subjective, so, a conclusive debate is impossible, however it is possible to debate the quality, albeit it takes a strong knowledge of the items being compared

Music and literature. Paintings are good as well. Films can be great, but it's a bit harder.

>> No.1576309

>Good:
>Stage play
Read some Shakespeare.

>> No.1576320

for pure human emotions, nothing beats music

for more abstract ideas, prose literature

a good combination can be achieved on screen, or opera

>> No.1576333

I believe the written word is better in theory.

However, a music can be more effective than a sculpture can be more effective than a painting can be more effective than a novel. It ultimately comes down to the artist, and therefore I don't think it's particularly worth considering.

The discussion is about whether certain art forms are better at certain things than certain other art forms.. OK?? And I think the art form of Opera beats everyone at everything. It is the ultimate art form
