“Ugly when compared to pre-existing notions of taste is a bummer. But
ugly as a representation of mass experimentation and learning is pretty
damn cool. Regardless of what you might think, the actions you take to
make your MySpace page ugly are pretty sophisticated. Over time, as
consumer-created media engulfs the other kind, it’s possible that
completely new norms develop around the notions of talent and artistic
ability.”
