DG CONNECT’s efforts to Gradgrind the Arts – known as STARTS
– which seeks to turn the arts into numbers – on balance sheets – sounds the
death knell of l’exception culturelle,
especially as part of the French art world has embraced the STARTS nonsense
with great enthusiasm. In future art must have a utility – DG CONNECT’s
utility.
Now we are experiencing a spinning inside the head, the
results of VERTIGO, and someone is saying: we are bringing together the leading
players in a sensitive and the intelligible desire and astonishment: artists,
engineers, scientists, and entrepreneurs who change and defy our present.
Back to the matter of art-science fakes once again! Expect
to see many of these – but as with all art fakes, it takes an expert to tell
what is fake, and what is genuine. This is why we studied art and the
state-of-the-art, so that we could tell fakes from what is an original – fake or fortune?
VERTIGO is a symptom of several diseases and disorders,
often also associated with a loss of balance and feelings of nausea. Chose your
acronyms carefully!
