Stop thinking about art works as objects, and start thinking about them as triggers for experiences. (Roy Ascott’s phrase.) That solves a lot of problems: we don’t have to argue whether photographs are art, or whether performances are art, or whether Carl Andre’s bricks or Andrew Serranos’s piss or Little Richard’s ‘Long Tall Sally’ are art, because we say, ‘Art is something that happens, a process, not a quality, and all sorts of things can make it happen.’ … [W]hat makes a work of art ‘good’ for you is not something that is already ‘inside’ it, but something that happens inside you — so the value of the work lies in the degree to which it can help you have the kind of experience that you call art.

Just Look at this Ridiculously Photogenic Dog [Click for more]
A project that simply started with Instagrams of a coonhound named Maddie balancing on stuff, photoblog MaddieOnThings has blossomed into a full-fledged production; no longer relying on the balancing premise and upgrading the camera beyond Toaster photo filters. This dog is flat out photogenic. The success of the project has blossomed into a nationwide tour(meet the dog!) and a book deal. Just wish he was our best friend.

We’ve been talking a lot about the cost of college recently. John Green puts it best.
