That's what I mean. Are we at a point where that's possible or are we only able to come up with original arrangements of unoriginal elements?
So why is nobody able to come up with anything new?
isn't that the big assumption of conceptual art? no need to create anything new, it's all just a matter of getting a new perspective.mcluhan makes a big thing of perspective being a new way to percieve the world. almost as if it were creating a new reality.

if so, it makes me want to reinstate the importance of craft. cause the conceptual art view seems to be missing something. or even say "there are enough ways of seeing already, i just want someone to do something interesting with them!"
yeah, that's the idea that's more interesting to me!b) a new mode of perception necessarily entails making something unprecedented in order to represent it and trasmit it. so it can be shared.
yes.
What's expressed could only come from you, but other people have expressed something similar in similar ways.I'm trying to work out whether something can be unique, but unoriginal. It sounds like an oxymoron, but you can make an authentic expression of something whilst making an unoriginal tune.
I watched my dad watching the visual score for Ligeti's Artikulation and he was following it like a game, wanting to see what happened next, how the next bit would sound.if you think of this as a video game, i hear it as having four levels. the first is a sky level, the second (~3:00) is a water level, the third (~6:00) is a nowhere level, the fourth (~9:00) is a space level. each time the basic building materials are the same, but used to create very different experiences and physics (and with more and more new elements being introduced in each.)
guess the point being that, imo, video games can be a very helpful reference point for other media. so continuing with those analogies could be promising.
