      Yea, we’re well into DADA-ist territory to find interesting reference points for the timeless question of “what is art” in this discussion.

      I’m curious: how do you feel this relates? Does the banana feel like it should or should not be art and/or copyrighted? Is it an energy/effort quality being compared to the end result? Or just the concept vs physical manifestation of the concept?
