For me it's just another attempt at retreating to the god of the gaps, albeit with a creative twist. It always boils down to unexplained = god to posters like Mattyfatsacks. And of course they often don't see if there is in fact an explanation for the 'gap' they bring up.
One can make any number of assumptions about art, but to simply assume it is some contact with forces from beyond is ludicrous. And you're right of course there is the subtle insult to our logical and often literal approach to their way of thinking, it would just have more merit if what they presented was more substantial.
