l E domain of artifacts goes well beyond the art.
the realm of art is in fact that of conventional management of illusion, a convention that neutralizes the effects initially delirious illusion, which neutralizes the illusion as extreme event.
The aesthetic is a sort sublimation, domination by the shape of the radical illusion of the world, otherwise we render.
The original illusion of the world from which other cultures have accepted the cruel evidence available to an artificial balance. We, modern cultures, no longer believe in the illusion of the world, but in reality (which is of course the last of illusions), whose ravages we have chosen to temper that way through cultivation, docile, which is the simulation aesthetic form.
The illusion has no history. The aesthetic form itself has one. But because it has a story, not just a time and is no doubt now that we are witnessing the disappearance of this conditionally, so aesthetics of simulation, the benefit of unconditional simulation, ie a scene early in the illusion, which will recover the phantasmagoria inhuman rituals and cultures beyond our own.
