Does good art lead to intersubjectivity?  Psychological energy shared between two sources cannot be effortlessly explained. Source energy is not inherently intellectual. The process of creating art can suspend time and space. It transforms, awakens, engenders physical impulses, rejigs the banality of the quotidian.  Electric Kool-Aid Banana is a hybrid celebration of the revisitation [...]
