  Wheaton Squier:  it's an art Meghan Faulkner:  ok,  whatever you say,  but anyone can procrastinate,  on; y the truly talented can get it done early Wheaton Squier:  . yeah Wheaton Squier:  but it can still be considered am art Meghan Faulkner:  HOW?  Wheaton Squier:  anyone can spatter pain on a canvas and call it art 9:
40 PM Wheaton Squier:  hang on Wheaton Squier:  fine then Meghan Faulkner:  how is it art Wheaton Squier:  how is it not?
 Meghan Faulkner:
 it does not involve creating anything new,  it is an act,  there is no final product Wheaton Squier:  ah Wheaton Squier:  there is nothing Wheaton Squier:  and that is what you are trying to get Meghan Faulkner:  yes Wheaton Squier:  nothing is the product Meghan Faulkner:  but then it is not an art form,  because a product is something not nothing Meghan Faulkner:  right?
 Wheaton Squier:
 no Meghan Faulkner:  i think?
 Wheaton Squier:
 anything can be art Meghan Faulkner:  but it has to be something not nothing Wheaton Squier:  why?
 9:
45 PM Meghan Faulkner:
 because you just said anything can be art,  but to be anything it has to be something nothing Wheaton Squier:  nothing is something Meghan Faulkner:  no nothing is nothing Wheaton Squier:  okay Wheaton Squier:  we will say that nothing is nothing Wheaton Squier:  nothing can still be art Meghan Faulkner:  thank you Wheaton Squier:  if you had a blank canvas,  what is it?
 Meghan Faulkner:
 if that is what you want to be believe,  so be it Wheaton Squier:  is it something?
 Meghan Faulkner:
 the beginnings of art Wheaton Squier:
 not the canvas Wheaton Squier:
 okay Wheaton Squier:
 so we have the beginning of art Wheaton Squier:  is that something?
 Meghan Faulkner:
 yes but not art Wheaton Squier:  so if i said " that's art"  what would you say?
 9:
50 PM Meghan Faulkner:  no,  because it was not made by human hands,  did you grow the flax or whatever and weave it,  and all of that fun stuff Wheaton Squier:  so it's not you're saying?
 Meghan Faulkner:
 yes,  i'm saying that it is not Wheaton Squier:
 okay Wheaton Squier:
 but you have me the " artist"  who is saying that in- fact that IS art and who are you to say it's not?
 Meghan Faulkner:
 if you created it,  maybe it is art,  but if you go buy a canvas,  display it,
 and whatever,  it is not art!
 Wheaton Squier:
 so i can't proclaim the blank canvas art 9: 55 PM Meghan Faulkner:  not unless you created it Wheaton Squier:  is a parakeet paints something is it art?
 Meghan Faulkner:
 yes,
 it created it Meghan Faulkner:  i think Wheaton Squier:  okay,  so if i covered my canvas with paint and then scraped it all off Wheaton Squier:  is that art Meghan Faulkner:
 no,
 it was,  but you destroyed it Wheaton Squier:
 no Meghan Faulkner:
 if there were holes or scrape marks,
 it might be Wheaton Squier:  i say that if that's what i was trying to do then it's art Meghan Faulkner:  if you purposefully created them Meghan Faulkner:
 yes Wheaton Squier:
 so if i purposely left it blank.
 Meghan Faulkner:
 NO!
 Wheaton Squier:
 WHY NOT?
 Wheaton Squier:
 i can say it is Wheaton Squier:  that's what i want to portray Wheaton Squier:  i blank canvas Meghan Faulkner:
 yes,
 but maybe i don't agree with you 10:
00 PM Wheaton Squier:  oh yes i know that Wheaton Squier:  so if you see it in a museum next to other things what would you call ot Meghan Faulkner:  i would silently wonder what the heck it is there for Wheaton Squier:  heh heh heh Meghan Faulkner:  but,  if you become a famous artist,  with blank canvases,  yeah,  right,  i'd support you Wheaton Squier:  wow Wheaton Squier:  we need to argue in person sometime - wheaton AKA the blank one.
