Well, in this video Denis Dutton is talking about beauty (Darwin’s theory) and how this concept has been present in our evolution history.  He said a lot of things, like: beauty is natures way of acting at a distances, or, like beauty is a concept that the ancestors created to keep and developed their way of relationships with others in many task, for example the reproduction and survival, etc. Finally Dutton concluded that one of the idea that persists today, as in our present as in the pass, “that beauty we find in skills performances” (or something like this), that’s included pieces of arts, the nature, the people because to him “we find beauty in something done well”. He is saying that beauty is concept that has to do with some skills to made things, like behind beauty are not emotional interest. Well, I find Dutton’s theory interesting; I find senses in his worlds, I would like to say something more but my English is too basic.  But, I always though the experience of beauty (in all senses) has been determine, principally, for the culture and by the other hand, is a something to do with personal tastes, or in arts terms, the aesthetic taste.  And when I say this, I’m talking about Kant’s concept of beauty, something like the judgment of taste.
