But what does your response mean? How does the work of someone who cannot perceive the result, could NEVER perceive the result, cannot get criticism, improve? Where is the self-expression in this process? I don't think there IS any. It's performance art because the act is the art and not the result produced. I'm just terminally politically-incorrect in this area with absolutely NO apologies. Otherwise there is no meaning and we might as well just hang cameras on birds and cows and let them take photographs randomly and give each image equal value to anything posted here.
