"I don't consider fear much of an evocation. I can do that but jumping out at someone from behind, but I wouldn't call that act performance art.
By jumping out at someone you scare them for real, on a physical level. But don't you think it requires some amount of artistry for someone to scare you merely by depicting happenings on fictional characters in a computer screen?
Other than that, I think my main disagreement with you is that you seem to limit your definition of art to good art or deep art.
For me however even someone whistling to himself is performing art - as he's satisfying an aesthetic sense which isn't related to purely physical gratification.
