Beauty is perspective, no? Change the viewing angle, change how you see the piece, how you experience the art and how it makes you feel changes.

Revenue was probably the wrong word. Is it doing what it was intended to do? Does it do it well? That’s the beauty, not what it looks like in a text file.

(not a craftsman, not a capitalist, closer to a nihilist utilitarian with a pinch of hope)
