The artist is conveying a message. I can’t believe they don’t care if anyone gets it or not.

I understand what you're getting at, but I don't think you can compare a painting to a song, because a song is sequential in time, whereas with a painting you can jump to any part that catches your attention at any time.

It would be an interesting art installation if a painting was linked to a song, with an eye-tracker "moving" the song musically to the part of the painting you are looking at.

Making bits and bytes sound good...
