Lesser intelligent fractions like of conservative minds tend to confuse accumulation of cluttered items as conceptual thinking. And as missing logical and coherent basics they like to skip crafts altogether and vent into pseudo intellectual scraps that are supposed to present a meaning; which the `ordinary´ among the pedestrians are supposed to "just not understand" as they are having no clue of brain farts. Ricardo with whome I seldomly agreed as wholeheartedly like in this thread, pointed to the monkey drawings very justifiedly, for such are what you can most obviously expose wannabe intellectuals and hollow blurb with. Pseudo intellectuals are not driven by contens, but by their manical desire to differ from the common. And it is therefore why they irrespectively of subject-related quality set their priorities on the unconventional or new. It is partially also why they often times can not appreciate widely perceived beauty, as it would be asking for mingle with the "ordinary". The hysterical focus on fleeing the "ordinary" leads the pseudo intellectual to finally dismiss an actual subject as a whole, for any subjects definitions with desribing its common factors will present the disdained "predicatbility" that equals ordinary status to the wannabe thinker. ( In the same time you will find that pseudo intellectuals at the bottom of their heart do usually love schlager and alike undemanding products, as an actual cognitive level that they will disguise as ironic affection for kitsch.) As Grisha mentioned, there as a fact will be initially kakophonic appearing compositions that reveal systematics only to the informed ear, yet, simply talent-free trash like around Warhol rather obviously does not count to any conceptual creation, other than a sneering at actual metiers and the fact that these are not being pampered for reasons entirely unrelated to the actual subject. And to point to the typical contradiction with the given example of ignorance of the beauty on behalf of pretended sophistication: To out of all prior `composing with no rational constraint´ in a subject like music that actually lives of symmetry is like requesting grog in the sauna. Complete **** only to distance from what´s there in the realm of harmony and rhythm, heading for nonesense for a trivial background of minority complex. Seeking for sense by all means in awkward realms of modern art as a superficially deemed refugee of out of all sophistication. Slipping on buttered bathtubs while telling passerbys how they weren´t knowing how to walk. I guess, in an upside-down world, when you have no slightest practical clue of a craft, first thing you gotta do is skipping it all and seek for holy grails among the clumsy and incapable. - And don´t forget the right insignia on your way to the Guggenheim: A long scarf and long coat, these days preferably with a bold hair cut! If you actually want to be informed, check out a craft, not a fashion. Ruphus
