Patti & Marc On Understanding & Not Understanding Art Analytically vs. Experientially

The speaker has immersed himself in the music and reflects on the gaps in the albums, considering the meaning behind the lyrics. He admits to not analyzing what others say and prefers to lock into the improvisation of jazz. He discusses the craving to make sense of things, but acknowledges that William Burroughs and other artists were not looking to make sense but were seeking new expressions. The speaker has never been analytical and mentions that art, like Cubism and Jackson Pollock, spoke to him at an early age without him understanding why. He compares not understanding art to reading Wittgenstein and shares a personal statement about feeling like he's thinking it while not understanding it. He emphasizes the experience of art, likening it to not needing to analyze music that deeply affects you.
