I probably think the new sentence, of Silliman, will hold up quite nicely. Obviously, informed artists have a lot more to draw from. But I think it tracks and preempts thing nicely, aside from the 'writing', which may be the only thing that Goldsmith debunks. Just my opinion, I don't know much context.
