Generally speaking, I have some sympathy for his view, but in my experience, it is very easy to be critical of work and even to agree with the criticism of others but it is a very different matter to be positive and make clear what one does like or is inspired by. It is only on hearing which artists working on that edge between art and science Jonathan Jones would find inspiring, if any, that you begin to understand what he is about.
