Semantic Minimalism

   There has been some debate

       On what an agent is, and what 
       could be appropriately called an agent

   Two main viepoints

?? The (strong) artificial intelligence viewpoint
• An agent must be, proactive, intelligent, and it must conversate
instead of doing client-server computing
?? The (weak) software engineering viewpoint
• An agent is a software component with internal (either reactive
or proactive) threads of execution, and that can be engaged in
complex and stateful interactions protocols

I think that Greenberg (even without knowing it) was full-filling
the "commentation/explanation/non-it-documentation) similar to
Breton (surrealists) and ??? (dada).

Note the way that "success has many fathers" (an old Chinese 
saying) and how later they changed the same-old "he said, i sed"
story as to who did what. 

Look as well as at things like Breton's exclusion of Dali being
parallel to Greenberg's exclusion of Frank Stella, ... ?others?
On the one hand accepting into the fold Pollock.

So, let;s boil it all down:

  Clearly several var's on sev lev's are operating:

    Pollock @has@ trad studio skills (esp draftmanship)
            @studied-with@ Benton
                           @who-is-was@ AN AMERICAN STANDARD
                           (read this as @is-salon-approved@)

    Modern art must necessarily reflect modern times
           ref to Bruno Latour's  "We have never been modern"
    
    Thus, we have a simple equation

                           complex, intricate
      Odd, new artist  +     and NON-random    (modern times) 
                                style

              --------->    valid new path for art
               @gives@

While things like Stella (no matter how clearly expressed:

            "there's nothing there but paint and canvas"
             @which-may-be@ "a put on" (ie, false front,
                                        bravado, double-speek, etc)

In a similar fashion that so many jazzists refer back to Bach (quite
aside from the rather bourgeouise (Russian: Proshlohst - self-satisfied
mediocrity of the middle class) view that ONLY BACCCHHHH is TREU MUSIC),
since he was the first (via such as "The Well Tempered Clavier" - read
this as "all possible notes and tonalities in all possible combinations"
or as vis artists we would say, iconoplexically:

    scientist x jazzist (sound, variations) 

           XLATE into artist ( domains-are_____ )

                  -->   the colour wheel

More formally we might write:

     scientist [ @a-key-is@ : SOUND ]
  
       x   jazzist  [ @a-key-is@ : MUSICAL-OBJECTS ]
           
           Let (in this case) MUSICAL-OBJECTS be a 
           non-empty set formed from searches of 
           the form:
                       fractal-explosion (scales) --->  the colour wheel
  

       x   jazzist  [ @a-key-is@ : MUSICAL-OBJECTS ]
           
           Let (in this case) MUSICAL-OBJECTS be a 
           non-empty set formed from searches of 
           the form:


  
         fractal-explosion (scales) --->  the colour wheel
  
  Where i (not more than a bit un-certainly) assert that

      jazzist (fractal-explosion) operating on @music scales@
                  
                 @can-be-reverse-engineered@

          @to yield@  Bach's
