With the hope of being able to see the nuanced tasting of all kinds of sushi, I was almost disappointed when I saw it; cynical like me, how can I believe, such as: "I have never been tired of my work in my life" ---What about the existence of such a pure attitude? Silently guessing, this must be a deification. But as I continued to read, I saw that there were irreplaceable talents in an industry that seemed to be superficial in terms of temperature, fresh fish, and even the choice of rice. I gradually began to believe xi nao.
Reminds me of a friend who joked about why someone chooses to devote themselves to a technology rather than a huge political power (in a broader sense)? The former is only used by the latter in the end; all the praises to craftsmen in history are nothing but bribes for this kind of use.
I think this documentary has an answer.
The mastery of meat quality, temperature, thickness, strength, etc. "cannot be fully expressed in language", but can only be "continuously practiced", constantly created, and finally formed a nearly intuitive technical system completely belonging to the individual. When the technology reaches the highest level, it is art; when the craftsman reaches the natural state, it is "everyone". And we often think that "art" is the highest form of expression of human nature, and technology and ilk are just tools.
However, with the extensive collection of data and the meticulous selection of data, these temperatures, thicknesses, and strengths, combined with the historical preferences of different individual customers, can’t form a huge database and provide a set of extremely personalized customized packages ? It can even be more efficient and accurate than doing it manually. More and more "skills" that we thought were "unique" turned out to be nothing more than pipelines that can be cloned and recombined in batches. What people think of as "handmade", "ingenuity", "producer and product" and "non-isolation" brought about "anti-alienation", and "wholism of harmony between man and nature/world", may eventually be the same. But it's a fantasy.
What's the difference between “technique” and “art”, between “machines” and “humans”? —————————————————————
In martial arts, "using a sword" is written, and the highest state is always "without a sword, there is a sword". They spent their whole lives, but they turned their "flesh" into a "sword". Just like Jiro, the god of sushi, what he wants in his life is "nothing but" how to "make sushi".
The dojo in the snails is a lively event for nothing!
However, what does that matter! Life is actually so small and short, and human nature is so fragile and empty. In the end, we can only attach the empty life to a specific "thing" and finally make ourselves into it. Fill in "Empty" with "Real". We see the former as the sublime and the latter as the inferior, and I suddenly realized that this is really the wrong order. What is human nature? The highest state of human nature is actually to become a "tool". Even if it is only for a moment, it can surpass the eternity of life and death. And I am missing this "tool", I am like a duckweed, and I have lost the "meaning of existence".
