NPR reported this a.m. that a group of monkeys where given a computer to work with for a little more than a month to see what they might produce. Rather than bringing forth another Shakespeare, they just made a big mess.
Was it art? I couldn't say. But it appears to be modern.
Peace! Sidney

Sidney,
I heard that too - even Shakespeare suffered from writers block!
But never mind writing - apes, like us photographers are visual thinkers. In a study at Columbia U. macaques learned to figure out the correct order of a sequence photographs as quickly as the college student control group. See this month's Discover.
