Ruth,
I wasn't disagreeing with Michael; I was endorsing his disagreement with
Adorno.
Being prescriptive about art is always a mug's game, in my view. Even
saying that you should never be prescriptive about art is probably too
prescriptive - because I do quite like some manifestos, for example the
Imagist manifesto.

I didn't take Michael's text as a rule or a command. More as a
heartfelt invitation to use all our powers to co-create an expanded
and enriched vision of life and communality, in which humans have a
central role ...
...which I greatly appreciated.

Michael,
I agree. We have to try to be adequate to our feelings about the time
in which we live - but ruling certain things either in or out of art
because they don't or do seem 'appropriate to our era' isn't really
an adequate response, I don't think.
