That's:

Let's see if there is anyone paying attention here:
The Jackson Pollock question:
1) "It is impossible to make a forgery of Jackson Pollock's work,"
2) Taylor:
Jackson Pollock painted fractal art.
3) All fractal art is "painted by the numbers":
that is : it is "machine painted".
4) All reproductions and prints are of less value than one off "originals"
that are unforged.
Inductively then:
All fractal art is worth less than human painted art which is "one off"
and "original".
( the key words here are "worth less"....)
For the sake of all fractal artists this doctrine has to be false
since their art only comes from the computer printer
or pictures of a computer screen.
Those of you that think you are above" The Jackson Pollock question "
should realize that this argument affects the acceptance of all art
that has "fractal" associated with it.
If this treatment of art doesn't make you angry,
then you don't get it
and aren't paying attention?
They want to buy these fellows "original art"
for less
because they can only produce it
using machines.
They admit it is "original" and "creative", but ...
