    There was a good interview with Tim Minchin by the BBC where he said something similar to this & used the word intent.
    I suppose the intent/communication/art comes from the person writing the prompt but those few words can only convey so much information. When the choice of medium & every line etc. involves millions of micro-decisions by the artist there is so much more information encoded. Even if its copy & pasted bits of memes.

      Is this the interview? https://files.catbox.moe/ddp6tp.mp4

      Tim Minchin has always come across as a good egg to me. It’s nice to hear he’s of the same mind, and I particularly like the optimism he’s promoting in his predictions for artistry going forward.
