[QUOTE="Tuur, post: 77655333, member: 445885"] I don't really get the philosophy question. Art is a communication. Even a grocery list can be a Haiku poem. Since it's communication, what does the artist wish to communicate? Poe famously observed that all elements of a short story should contribute to the effect, and that really holds for all forms of art. Art to convey a humorous concept is going to be different than art to convey horror, whether it's visual or song or written word. The the idea and feelings evoked ideally should be the idea and feelings the artist wishes to convey. [/QUOTE]
