So if you write novels and stories (etc.) can we say that style is the message?
How many people read novels because of the excellent style or the beautifull
hanbdwritting of the author ?

Sorry but many of my friends are illustrators or comics-drawers, they don't say
:
"ho god, how have you done this curve?"
"I use a n°2 pencil in martre, from a little society in Moscou, with extra
plug-in from japan?"

I know that technique is important but that's not message?
How many of you are trying to say something in mind, before starting playing
with the tools?.

Even is style traduce the message, can we say that it made the message??

(I think we could traduce the "Apocalypse selon St-Jean of Pierre Henri into
philamornic horchestra style, with a different approach, yes, but without
loosing the message?)

Seb.
