Caller 1: I want a definition for “Art”.

iON: “Placated doldrums”!

Caller 1: OK!

Bob: You mean the person has doldrums, and then, it’s placated through art?

iON: Yep, that is art. It’s not through art – that is art.

Caller 2: Is that why someone like Van Gogh came up with this brilliant art – because he had to placate something that was so dark?

iON: Van Gogh got famous because he was “card-carrying crazy”, and no one knew what to do with him. So, they had to make him a genius because they didn’t know what to do with him.
