Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I just happened to start playing music for the conceptual ideas.
There is a slight problem with being a conceptual artist these days: You won't get paid. But this levels the field and takes the art of money out of the field of serious art. The only conceptual artists who would conceive of making money on the Internet are a lowbrow species known as hustlers.

I have been known as the minimal and conceptual artist for over five decades. I think I haven't changed much.
I'm not trying to do conceptual art.
