I've always had a problem with how the world "art" is used these days, especially when it is used to justify just about anything someone does  as "a form of self expression", regardless of the lack of skill that may be shown. Art can be used to describe a beautiful painting, a well done song... or a box of cornflakes nailed to a paper plate with a hastily drawn scribble on the back of it. I do agree that self expression is a part of art, but there is something else, something fundamental, that makes art what it is. And I get into what I think it is in this video.

What, you thought I'd tell you here? Then what's the point of posting the video??
