For *every* mind with *every* possible motivation?!

Organ²/ASLSP is a music piece by John Cage which is being played at St. 
Burchardi church in Halberstadt. It is  is scheduled to have a duration 
of 639 years, ending in 2640. If current human artists do things like 
that, don't you think future posthuman artists might spam the universe 
for art?

The speed argument is not enough.
