    Why I would separate the artist from what they made? I’m interested in what they have to say about the world. That’s the point of art.

    It’s not just content to make me happy until the next hit. Like, it has meaning.

      What if the art has nothing to do with the artist’s views?

      For example, Burzum

        I think we have very different ways of enjoying art. I don’t really understand how it’s possible for at to have nothing with the artist’s views, unless it were totally random. Actually, even that would be saying something.

        But I get the feeling that we look at art pretty differently.
