so-long/farewell.

To begin with I have to admit how much of a struggle i found the majority of this course, It has basically turned me off the entire institution. I have learnt little, aside from my chosen essay topic, and have not been inspired all too much. To me it just all sounds like bullshit. Why is this art? Why is this not art? The majority of conversations i have had with people over this topic have been all wank. It is almost as if people have lost passion, drive, spirit. Who really cares why he/she does this/that for so on and so forth and because of all this it is worth hundreds of thoundands of dollars. Do we really think the greats were sitting there making art thinking 'I wonder how i will be criticed for this in the future? Is this art? What about this?"

I think we should be about pushing people to do what they love, let them call it whatever they want. art/not art - it's not about that! Try is this your passion? does this make you feel alive? is it simply just what you do or felt like doing? - then great, thats all that matters.
