i didn't say it was irrelevent, i said it is boring. take for example Alvin Lucier's I Am Sitting In A Room, once you've heard that once there's no need to listen to it again as it is barely music and more just demonstrating a point about the physics of sound. And that's what that guy at the guggenheim (or maybe it was at MoMA) was doing, demonstrating a point about the use of gallery space. Once the point has been made what is interesting about a stripey curtain?
