...and what if the experimenter doesn't give a flying f(l)unk about the
audience reaction?

I seem to recall a certain avant-garde performance group of this rather
experimental century whose standard of success was applause - or rather,
the absence of said communication of audience gratification.
Applause -> failure.
The rationale: if anyone in the audience applauded, then the piece
evidently wasn't challenging enough. A truly new work would unbalance the
audience, making one unsure of one's own reaction and incapable of an
immediate judgement.
By the way, this thread title is very silly.
Bucket all, then.
