Why all this fuss over one word?
Art is a word like any other, only it is put around so
much it has lost much of its meaning. Someone
mentioned the fact that the idm list might as well be
a museum. Why not? I personally don't regard it in
such a way, but then I'm not always right.
People get from artistic expression what they want, if
they don't the tendency is not to like it. This is not
wrong, as if we all understood every piece of work,
there would be no catergorization. IDM wouldn't work
if everyone liked and understood it.
The bottom line is that artists rarely refer to their
own work as 'art'. It is a painting, or a song, or a
poem. Appreciate what you will, it is one of our few
freedoms.
