well........ MGM·Lion, you're right there !!!

Collecting, archiving, preserving, are concrete tangible activities..
lifetime jobs well deserving of all respect and honours.

Categorising, defining,... hmmm.. yes.. very difficult...

Especially when it almost inevitably leads to'proscribing' !!!

Problems that can too easily affect all areas of modern arts curating and criticism..

Thankfully I just muck about with musical equipment
and have no real talent or any ambitions as an academic or critic...???
