That's a great article - I'll be looking for that book. The only thing I question is the universal issue. Most people (IMHO) not in the arts seem to have a distrust of it - you know - this idea that it's all chicanery unless they are looking at a near duplicate of consensus reality. So - how does that work into the evolutionary idea - that sense of distrust and even disdain? Is there an anti-art gene?
