That's it, nothing more or less. Whether anyone else agrees if an interpretation is art or not is irrelevant.

I tend to go along the lines of this definition. I have absolutely no qualms about the word 'art' being borderless and ill-defined.
I see the juxtapositions of nature and consequence in the manmade world to be art. Just because someone takes a photograph of it or draws it or sculpts it does not make it something that it was not to begin with. Same goes with sound, kinetic performance and any other artistic form.
Perhaps I think inspiration is art. That which makes one want to create something. Not only the product of inspiration. They seem like a whole to me.
