"Stop thinking about art works as objects, and start thinking about them as triggers for experiences. (Roy Ascott’s phrase.) That solves a lot of problems: we don’t have to argue whether photographs are art, or whether performances are art, or whether Carl Andre’s bricks or Andrew Serranos’s piss or Little Richard’s ‘Long Tall Sally’ are art, because we say, ‘Art is something that happens, a process, not a quality, and all sorts of things can make it happen.’ … [W]hat makes a work of art ‘good’ for you is not something that is already ‘inside’ it, but something that happens inside you — so the value of the work lies in the degree to which it can help you have the kind of experience that you call art."

World I’m begging.

Please don’t make me leave the house today.

Just now occurred to me that in Into Darkness lots of blood (and therefore genetic information) was collected and passed around without consent. That’s a big modern medical issue because privacy and stuff.

On a more superficial note, I have to say for the 1000000th time how much I loved the new medical bay uniforms. Both the white and the pale blue. 

I can’t wait until I graduate from medical school and can answer every annoying proposition with, “DAMMIT, I’m a doctor, not a _______!”

Man I sound like an old person saying this, but the weird thunderstorm/air pressure changes are totally wreaking havoc on my sinuses. 

I’m already tired of MCAT stuff. Eeeeesh.
