Thank you for your comments. There is no one else here who can describe situations so accurately.
I agree with your description of free jazz; the Nordic branch is at a bit of a dead end in this case. But it's not all like that, just one part.
In this case, maybe I could paraphrase that as "l'art pour l'art." Products/creations from this domain are often unreadable, unviewable, or unlistenable. This is usually not what we want, but it happens.

Sort:  

l'art pour l'art. -ars gratia artis

The critics and the sales strategies of the record companies have a tendency to favour interpretations that they themselves scarcely understand. In this case, it is quite simple. Everyone, regardless of what social class they belong to, should be able to decide for themselves whether they consider it to be art or whether it should be thrown away with the next round of rubbish collection.

I don't know if you know Alan Ford, but it used to be a very popular comic in the Balkans. My whole generation read it, and it's still a legend. Now, it is mostly in memes. This is Grunf, one of the team.
