Ahh interesting. That example clarifies a little for me. I see how it applies 
to your criteria: "given a certain context of achievement, would indeed appear 
to be a failure, but in which . . tadaaa! . . the artist has moved beyond"

but not how it constitutes "a strange space occupied by a particular obsession" 

but i also see how that's just an example, and an astute one on Pip's part!

can you relink the video?
