So, I guess the question is: if an artist chains himself to a tree in the forest and he dies, does anyone notice? Guess not.
To: krb
As are most (all?) performance artists.

I would bet a lot of them are bipolar, but schizophrenia?

As it were, the tree's eating it up. This was genuine "down to the bone" performance art.
You mean "Weekend at Woody's", right? ;-P
Drum roll, cymbal crash, group groan...

If a guy handcuffs himself to a tree in the forest, and there is nobody there to hear him screaming for help, is he really there?

If he's there long enough, that(s) only REMAINS to be seen...;-)

I meant they are mentally ill.
Instead of celebrating their illness we should get them help.
Or at the least, ignore their expressions of illness instead of celebrating them.

Too Funny! I spit coffee all over my screen!
Watch CSI turn this into an investigation. They have a habit of taking real-life events and modifiying them for their series...
