    David's erudite and whimsical discourses have brought to mind
    something that's good to know. That is that artists by and large
    don't care about any of this. "True artists", which I would define as
    those who must do art or explode, mostly just want to work. It's the
    rest of the field that has a need to categorize and analyse it all.
    Music is the biggest offender - "Tex-Mex retro rockabilly pop-rock",
    and the musicians just say, "Hey, it's my thang....." Monet didn't
    set out to start a movement called Impressionism, his vision was
    failing and he painted what he saw (but you knew that, of course).
    It's interesting - I find it very interesting to discuss philosophy
    in general. But the artists themselves mostly don't much care what
    you call it. It's just their thang......
