"Too much impacts critical analysis to allow us to say, "This IS art!" or "This IS good!" "
Indeed. I find that sort of assertion troubling too. But I do find it interesting when people try to show me why they think or feel a certain way - if they can. I recently had some very illuminating responses from khandu and Clinton Hammond on why they liked a certain song so much. Maybe I am trying to be a little too intrusive into other peoples' minds!
