I like the blurb "fewer than 200 individuals of the world’s total population will enjoy this".
A sizeable percentage of which are WFMU DJs, and most of the others listeners

No, an art exhibit. They are visual artists who collaborated with David Saylor on this project. It's connected to a larger project in which they tried to scientifically determine each nation's most wanted and unwanted painting. awp.diaart.org...
