Artmaking is when one discovers a law that one already follows (science) / 8. In the end, it is law against law. / 9. But still, law is sin (St. Paul) and death. / 10. Petrified unrest / manic energy / overproduction / 11. What is truly against the law? / 12. Duchamp / against one's taste / contranatural / (perverse) / 13. Kant = Contranatural is Anti-Christ / 14. His anti-art was in fact a private pleasure forced to live on for others. / 15. Crime and pleasure (≠ happiness) / 16. Crime is what is pleasing only to onself? / 17. Real art is what is pleasing to oneself? / 18. Real art is a real crime? / 19. Adorno quote as Nietzschean bluster / 20. The real crime is that what we do for ourselves is pleasing"] -
