That's my view as well. And I think it is important to remember that
many things usually called "art" are actually not being released
until well in the eye of the beholder. So you, as being the creator,
is one of the individuals least expected to understand the true
artistic values of your work, at least not right away. So, in that
sense I guess I have a rather different view compared to Kevin's.
