Unless you're doing "modern art" in which case you just literally throw paint (or other substances) at a canvas then give it a pretentious title, and the modern art snobs will convince themselves that they see in the painting what the title indicates they should see. Reminds me of the INXS, Suicide Blond story; Apparently the guy they hired to do the video showed up and said he loved the song and how he thought the song was a metaphor for the deforestation of the Amazon basin or somesuch, when in fact it's just about a girl who dyed her hair, as the band immediately told him. He read meaning into it that it never had. Xocyll -- I don't particularly want you to FOAD, myself.
