LOL look how remote art has become, it is following suit with quantum dynamics! An avant-garde misalignment where the organization of a logical sequential world is usurped by the hellfire of garbage grasping incessantly at the shades of the psyche impressed upon by commercialism and vast swaths of elements of media. How far we've come. Right back to the beginning with nothing to show for it! Trite, trite, tritey gritty vapid bounds of the sickened imagination. Away with ye, back to Shakespeare I go.
