Ew! But really, but what is the point of such a thing? I do think people will have wildly different ideas of what good art is. And that's okay.

I wonder also if a recipe would be a good analogy to art. What makes a good recipe? Some might really enjoy fruitcake, while others find it quite unappealing. Some really like sushi while others don't. Or hot ghost pepper salsa and so on... But, there has to be skill in execution of the intention. And, I think there must be some line in which all would agree something is unappetizing...for instance, something is undercooked or overcooked or an ingredient is added into a painful degree. For instance, a cup of salt in a cake recipe. So there are boundaries to make a recipe "good." It can't just be if the masses agree it is good.

Right, and luckily, we have many "dishes" that over the centuries, people have agreed are good. So by looking at how those dishes are composed, one may get a glimpse into what makes a good recipe.

I think for some it may be threatening to watch the sausage being made, but then you will learn what makes a good sausage, or how to make it better - which are both good endeavors.
