Who Decides if you are an Artist

Considering the diversity of art in modern times it is hard to think of a time when artists had to conform to certain style or artistic viewpoint. This is especially interesting when I think of art periods such as surrealism where the goal of such paintings were to push boundaries and what people perceived as art. I think the idea of HITRECORD is a very interesting idea as it showcases art in a way which is interactive to the viewer, giving them the ability to remix the artwork whilst the original still stays available for others to view. The comparison between how art was defined back in the 18th century as something which had to conform to someone's standards, as apposed to art in the 21st century where art which appeals to wide audiences and requires very little critique if any in order to
to be published on foru,s such as HITRECORD.
