I think they look the same; if anything they look slightly like they did before some minor recent changes. Ozy looking a bit different is due to his rather rare "surprised" expression.<br><br>Oh and <!--emo&:lol:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Um... what about the 60's? Judging by the music and history books, I'm quite sure there was lots of surrealism then. After all, haven't many of those artists been considered "ahead of their time"?<br><br>All in all, it has often been fun watching them contemplating God.

They say whoever says they remember the 60s wasn't truly there. Whatever that means. <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo--><br><br>And Ozy has a very good point. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... iggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo--><br>

No, I think you can safely say he was just continuing Millie's "what if" scenario.

All artists can be dubbed ahead of their time if they are/were i think, not just musicians. I think the 60's surrealism was different from the original artistic surrealism an that's probably what is being talked of here, considering how Millie talks about <b>painting</b> a sunset.<br><br>I don't have much knowledge, i know more about surrealistic literature than the artistic kind but if they're anything alike then the original surrealists were exploring and delving into the subconscious mind. Trying to bring to life their inner thoughts and dreams. Freud influenced 20th century art and writing a lot and it's somewhat through his work that all manners of artists started looking into the interpretation of their dreams. In this art, Dali is an obvious choice of course.
