Invoking an emotional response is artistry in its highest form.
When Tom and I were driving to the hotel on Thursday, a station wagon
being driven in an erratic and dangerous manner invoked a fairly
extreme emotional response from both of us.
I hadn't thought of bad driving as being an art form before this
moment.....
Well, it can be.
I think this is as good a place for my comment in this discussion. For
it to actually be Art there has to be _describable_ intent on the part
of the /Artist/. That usually, but doesn't always, requires a certain
level of craftsmanship. So I guess intentional bad driving is Art,
while unintentional bad driving isn't. Extrapolate to the rest of the
universe at your peril.
