I don't think that happened (the former clause of your last sentence.)  You
mean *you've* never been offended by IRTC results?

There have been anims in IRTC for which I'd rather watch a minute of black
screen (some may prefer this over my work-- wait a minute, some have said my
work IS too much like a black screen!).

And then there's the idea of the graffiti outside on the wall of a modern
art museum.  For various reasons, some good some bad, from neurological to
philosophical, you'll probably get a few percent of visitors to the museum
saying they prefer the painted initials on the outside.
