先日、心理学者ニール・ワインスタインが提唱した「ノンスクリーナー/スクリーナー」という概念を知った。周囲のノイズに敏感で集中を削がれやすい人と、雑音下でも素早く適応できる人の分類だ。僕はこのマイクロブログやお金の計算、語学の勉強ならカフェでも平気だが、作曲/創作やプログラミングは自宅でないと捗らない。個人の「気質」「傾向」の問題もあるが、一人の人間でも「何の作業をどの位の深さで行うか」によって随分違いがありそうだ。

最近はニュースを見る機会を最小限に絞っている。誰に対しても何の意見も持たないくらい無関心になりたいのだが、「究極の無関心と鋼のメンタリティ」の領域にはまだ遠い。そんなことを考えていて、ふと『ザ・デイリー・ショー』のジョン・スチュアートを思い出した。彼のトークは今も天才的で、かつてのように思慮深い。けれど、アメリカと世界があまりに冷え切ってしまった今では、そのジョークの背後にも、「もはや打つ手なし」という虚しさが漂ってきてしまう。
