By what standards should this opus be judged?  It bridged from the corporate to the discorporate; its final form had been set throughout by an Old One - yet on the other hand the artist, with the detachment of all artists everywhere, had not even noticed the change in his status and had continued to work as if he were corporate.  Was it possibly a new sort of art?  Could more such pieces be produced by surprise discorporation of artists while they were working?  The Old Ones had been discussing the exciting possibilities in ruminative rapport for centuries and all corporate Martians were eagerly awaiting their verdict.
