Yes, I'd agree with this. For me, livecoding isn't about the skill of
musical performance so much as it is that doing so makes a statement
that is integral to a creative agenda. After all, skill is an
inherent part of any artistic endeavour (and whether the particular
artist has skill or not is a different matter and is somehow
irrelevant to this discussion).
Just my 2p...
