Neither is it exactly breaking new ground. Art is everywhere, they say, from fingernails to fine dining; art is not a message to be decoded, but takes on new meanings in the mind of each viewer; art allows us to experience emotions in a \u201csafe\u201d context, like a form of affective practice; art helps us to imagine new worlds, thereby expanding the boundaries of what\u2019s possible in the real world. The point isn\u2019t to be original, though, but to distil a lifetime\u2019s worth of practical wisdom and reflection. The result is a kind of joyous manifesto: just the thing to inspire a teenager (or adult) into a new creative phase. Eno and Adriaanse conclude with a \u201cWish\u201d: that the book helps us understand that \u201cwhat we need is already inside us\u201d, and that \u201cart \u2013 playing and feeling \u2013 is a way of discovering it\u201d.<\/p>\n Brian Eno and Bette Adriaanse talking to David Shariatmadari about their new book, <\/em>What Art Does: An Unfinished Theory<\/em><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n \u2022 “Crunchie: The Taste Bomb!” DJ Food unearths four psychedelic posters promoting Fry’s Crunchie bars<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u2022 New music: Music For Alien Temples<\/em><\/a> by Various Artists, and Awakening The Ancestors<\/em><\/a> by Nomad Tree.<\/p>\n \u2022 At Wormwoodiana: Mark Valentine<\/a> lays out a history of the Tarot in England.<\/p>\n \u2022 Sun Ra & His Intergalactic Research Arkestra live on German TV, 1970<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u2022 At Dennis Cooper’s: Chris Marker<\/a> Day (restored\/expanded).<\/p>\n \u2022 At the BFI: Anton Bitel<\/a> on 10 great Mexican horror films.<\/p>\n \u2022 Matt Berry\u2019s favourite albums<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u2022 Tarot (Ace of Wands Theme)<\/em><\/a> (1970) by Andrew Bown | Tarotplane<\/em><\/a> (1971) by Captain Beefheart And His Magic Band | Tarot One<\/em><\/a> (2012) by Tarot Twilight<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Ermita\u00f1o Meditando (1955) by Remedios Varo. \u2022 Public Domain Review announces the Public Domain Image Archive.
