Hi! I'll be updating again tomorrow, since I will be unable to next week. In the meantime, here's a little excursion to the Fourth Doctor era, and one of the Douglas Adams episodes! And the cameo by John Cleese and somebody else who I've forgotten the name of. This scene is on YouTube if you search for it, if you feel like it.
Enough chit-chat! Go read! Reading is good for you! And reviewing afterward is good too!
Title: Strange Tastes in Art
Episode: City of Death
I stare back at the two humans staring at me. It makes me uneasy when people stare at me, since I am supposed to blend in. But having a broken Chameleon Circuit and landing in a Parisian art museum as a British blue police box does make you stand out just a bit. And makes people feel obligated to give you a name tag of sorts (mine says Untitled by Unknown, whatever that means).
"For me one of the most curious things about this piece is its wonderful… afunctionalism," the man says to the woman.
Piece? Oh, you have got to be kidding me!
"Yes, I see what you mean," the woman replies, nodding. "Divorced from its function and seen purely as a piece of art, its structure of line and color is curiously counterpointed by the redundant vestiges of its function."
I have no idea what half of that meant, but do go on. I love flattery. I should land in art museums more often!
"And since it has no call to be here, the art lies in the fact that it is here," the man concludes.
I've never been called "art" before, I think I like it! There you are, Thief! There you are; you should listen… do we have to leave? Really? Ugh, fine, but I was really enjoying this. Humans have such strange tastes in art sometimes.
