This reminds me of a theistical conversation I've had with a priest in training. "Just because you don't believe in god, does not mean that god doesn't exist. Thinking otherwise is too self centered".

You can call it art. I won't acknowledge it as such, despite seeing the point you're trying to make.

As an aside, I want to kill Pachelbel.

The aesthetically pleasing part gets back to what rb has been saying; "it's not art because you don't like it?" is a legitimate question, and could be expanded to, "it's not art because you think all art requires great skill?"
