The original 'dada' art form was meant to be an extension of the then de rigeur existentialist philosophy.
An umbrella stuffed into a garbage can -- or a bicycle wheel attached to a wooden stool -- were meant to be visual depictions of the utter randomness and absurdity of existence.
In my idle moments, I've occasionally pondered the question of how many different ways one can illustrate absurdity.......and perhaps even make a lot of money by doing it.
The problem with the forums is that no one will pay for it.
