It has the capacity to be both, I think. It would depend mostly on the motivation of the artist.

Or maybe the effect. The motivation may be less important than the consequence. Ormaybe just public evaluation. Or maybe the analysis of experts. Dunno.

Nobel Prizes will be given out in a few months so don't be surprised if I get a Nobel for literature for my posts on this forum.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

No, I think you're mixing up the Nobel Prize with the Nobby Prize.

There is something very obviously "wrong" or "off" about most people. I'm not sure exactly what it is, but it's something most people aren't aware of.
