On Tue, 22 Apr 1997, it was written: ]it's an interesting question. brian eno is a famous proponent of ]systems-based music. for example, the album "thursday afternoon" is ]just a dozen or so tape loops running for an hour. it's also one of ]the most beautiful ambient albums ever made. does the ease of its ]construction mean that it is less valid as a work of art? Of course the real decision-making is done by the artist himself, deciding if the work makes him happy or not ...still, an analogy: has anyone painted a picture in the stlye of jackson pollack that looks anything unlike just another jackson pollack painting?
