ttg: happy posting, yes, but also related to Rimanelli (here at least) in that the "spaces" depicted cannot be visited for a possible Entries. Rimanelli goes to real places(/events), many times even somewhat exclusive places(/events) within the art world. His writing about "being there" offers behind-the-scenes glimpses and delivers an easy snob appeal. The spaces of Virtual Museum also offer unreal behind-the scenes glimpses that are likewise completely exclusive in that no one can actually go there.

zt: "simply everything" is way too much hyperbole, especially the "everything". I spend much of my time working at being both an artist and an architect. For the most part, everything I do (or at least try to do) requires somewhat more work than first anticipated, but it is (at least for me) gratifying when some results ultimately manifest simply. [By your definition there can't be any geniuses because no one can simply do everything. Then again, your definition is simply wrong to begin with.]
