           I think the topics touched on in these chapters are really vital to the way that our generation is looking at art.  By making art that isn't confined to a galley space, it becomes so much more accessible - thereby really being much more relevant to most people.  I think "I [love] TAXI" is a really fun and interesting piece.  Seriously, there should be more art like that; wouldn't you be thrilled if you grabbed a taxi and it just happened to have an installation art piece inside it?  That's the sort of stuff that makes life fantastic and interesting and wonderful.  I also really like how a lot of the pieces have very personal meanings, which shows the viewers how meaningful everything in their own lives can be.  I think the work of the artist is to address the human condition, and by doing so, the artist can show other people how they can find meaning and beauty and compelling crazy notions in the every day.  The interactive pieces are particularly successful at achieving this.  YAY FOR ART!       -Julia
