good and bad

As I have been thinking about the good and bad thing a couple of things have been sticking in my mind.

I really like that these simple question conflate the moral (ethical) with the aesthetic. I think it demonstrates why the visual is powerful. This is a point in the gagnepain stuff that i like and also i see it a bit in schwitters.
I think in this distinction also lies another question - what of our valueing of things is cultural (conventional) and what of it is about the nature of human experience (please excuse the pop psych terminology). This fits really well with the stuff in Visual Perception about past experience and schema's and the way they focus and frame perception. Below i've made (attempted a) division of the 3 areas of good and bad - down into criteria for these two factors. The hard part is knowing when and how we might be working within a convention. What is good about working within a convention? What is bad about it?

		experience	convention
form	good	how it looks (is experienced) is good - feels good - looks good - is pleasant -(easy on the eyes) true to experience - lifelike	its form shows or exemplifies a convention of beauty or good looking - good composition - accurate
form	bad	looks bad - not pleasant to look at - disturbing to experience	does not conform to conventions of beauty - bad likeness - bad composition. Does not connect to any known idea of beauty so viewer does not recognize it.
content	good	it represents or is about something good	it represents something that represents “goodness” - that is “known to be good”
content	bad	it represents or is about something bad	it representes something that represents "badness" - that is "known to be bad"
context	good	the combination of things or item and environment is good	things are combined in ways that convey convention or good combinations
context	bad	the combination of things or item and environment (figure/ground) is bad (maybe this slips into the analogies in formalism - as in a figure can't even be distinguished from the ground)	things are combined in ways that break with conventions and expectations of context
