It's a lot like record collecting!, by Feral Things on Jun 1, 2014 12:51:03 GMT 1, There's some really stunning pieces there, johnnyh.
In relation to settingson's original post, although I appreciate that posts about getting hold of the latest print releases might dominate this forum, in my opinion at least, that's an insignificant part of what this is all about. Surely it's about the artists' influences and techniques, the aesthetics and underlying message/concept of the work, the new ideas and exhibitions? i.e. it's the work itself, rather than owning the work, which really matters?

Artists influences and stuff as you look back etc. but buying tunes was also often based on new releases, latest album etc as well as coming across someone new to you and exploring their work further. I suppose I would connect owning art like owning records in that of course it's the work you like but you enjoy hearing it for awhile then hear something new and listen to it delving back now and again etc. hearing something new or a different genre does not devalu the other and for me art is similar in that sense. Like tunes you also look back at something's and think " what the fuk were you doing??" But it all. Reflects who you are, were, who you knew, what you thought a diary in fact formyself as it all means something or is a slice of time my time and a bands time or an artists time and whatever that connection is. You look at some of the collections of tunes some of the big ones displayed are like a weekly diary of someone's life

You look at some of the collections of tunes some of the big ones displayed are like a weekly diary of someone's life Have to agree so much with what johnnyh has written here. It also struck me how like my music taste there is so much variation in the style of art that I have so far come across that I like with some of it being apparently very simple and has you thinking 'I could have done that but I just wouldn't have thought of it' to the majority of it being impossible to even have contemplated. Contrasts nicely to the music side of things where although I'm pretty good with words I don't have the imagination to write lyrics and where having never been able to play an instrument in my life the actual music side of things is totally beyond me! Thankfully there are enough people out there with such talents so I've decided it's safe for me to just relax and leave them to it!
