Every word's meaning is constantly under revision. That isn't a trait unique to this particular word.

It isn't that such a discussion isn't valuable (although I'm not sure it is), but rather that every discussion of this type instantly devolves into semantics and never gets beyond it. I want to get beyond it, so rather than get caught in the mire, I hoped we could simply agree that it's a problem for another thread and time. 

If we're simply going to discuss the meaning of the word "art," I hope a mod can change the thread title -_- 


Was this in reply to my post? I'm not sure.

 I simply stated the the idea behind art is to challenge the audience to think in new ways, and that includes thinking of art in new ways.

But of course that was the first 2 lines of my post. The rest wasn't only discussing the meaning of the word "art".

 

Edit: fixed a typo



I find self deprciation is the best way for humorless people to be socialble.
