So since that moment when my personal idea of art was questioned, I have been quite sceptical about the entire art world and what on earth its purpose is. To link art to religion is a massive leap in itself- any art that is produced is unconsciously a direct product of the artists social status, life experiences, state of mind, personality, world issues and of course, their religious status. Art is indeed a 'recording memory'- or rather, a tactile documentary. But, at the same time, it is ever changing. We can view art from two centuries ago with complete different perceptions to how those viewed it when the paint was still wet. Art that we are producing today will have a completely different impact on audiences of the future...so in that sense, art is not a recorded memory, but it is fluid, changing, with perpetual meaning and affects everyone differently...some people would have found the Muhammad cartoon funny, others were deeply offended. How can we get our head around the power that something artificial, like art, can yield? Does its impact lie in the fact that a piece of art represents an idea that is REAL, created from the mind of a person that is REAL.... i have always believed in the idea that “art is everything”…until in one of my cultural lectures i yelled this out to the teacher, only to be verbally smacked down and told, “don’t be stupid, not it’s not”.

I am very interested to know where the source and purpose of art itself is guided or taught, as would the case in most schools in Australia this happens therefore there will be some artistic license to offensive material. If somebody sprays graffiti on the wall then some might say thats "illegal art", I am sure many people are offended by all the horrible mess in the Sydney city and west with all the graffiti etc sprayed on public property and commuting. In music if someone smashed their guitar such as Jimi Hendrix, yes it was art and freedom but destructive. It carried it's "recording" I guess I am aware of art and the freedoms and exhibitions and what exactly people are doing art for, for beauty or to express feelings, or to simply throw paint at the canvas or write poetry to electronic light shows. Smashing guitars or even aeroplanes could be considered art, does this make sense? Somebody help me. Could all art be is a "recording memory"?
