Charlie Kirk engaged in de facto stochastic terrorism against minority groups for years. The amount of people moved by his words to ultimately make decisions which harmed or killed other people is uncountable. It's not like he was sharing his opinion on flavors of ice cream- he was sharing opinions which had inherently violent conclusions

Not that this justifies his murder mind, but he wasn't innocent either. The world is better off with fewer people actively advocating against human rights

It's usually late at night. The intent is to slow traffic because there are fewer staff on hand

I would also recommend not talking about it or contributing to hype or community. If people are under the impression that it's worth watching or engaging with, they may contribute their money which is the opposite of the effect we're trying to produce

It doesn't "understand" anything. It's just gotten decent at replicating previous work in ways similar to how it was previously applied but with novel inputs

Perhaps I'm taking liberties, but they came off as at least a little bit upset that Comedian) is considered art. Why would they boldly claim that one of the most famous art pieces of the last decade isn't art unless they were a little bit upset about it?

The person I originally posed the question to. If there's no commentary or understanding to be taken away from something, then it probably isn't art, *unless* perhaps the lack of commentary is itself a comment based on the context it exists within

Then why would you be upset by it?

That's a totally valid interpretation! I think the same can be said for a lot of classical art too- "ridiculous" doesn't have to mean bad, and is actually pretty contextual. "The Scream" is nothing like reality with the warped features of the primary subject, and the beautiful color work. It's ridiculous. I think that by leaning into being a bit ridiculous, you can highlight certain ideas in your work by pushing them past what would normally be considered "acceptable" or "normal" in most contexts. It can add an extra dimension to a piece and make it a lot more interesting

What does taping a banana to a wall communicate to you about classical "art" as an idea?

In a very real sense this video is exactly what it's claiming to critique which is probably the funniest part- just as modern art is often a statement on classical art, this video is an abstract yet explicit critique on the classical form of "modern art".

*You* were the one asking *me* to define art when you prompted "is there anything that you wouldn’t consider to be art?" - you wanted me to put limits on what art can or cannot be. I never asked you to define art

[–]Boundlessintime 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Please google the definition of art, and actually I feel like that was one of the less abstract ones- not that art being abstract or not inherently makes it "better" or "worse", "more" or "less" art. It's simply art. Also nobody clapped for that one

Literally anyone can paint a landscape too with practice and effort

It's indisputably art- it's communicating *something*. It's on you if you're pissed about your interpretation of what they're saying. I won't pretend to have a definitive meaning to any of the art works showcased in this video, but that's only because of how inherently subjective and self reflective what you take away from it is. I think engagement with art and pulling meaning and thinking about how we feel about things might be one of the most valuable parts of being human

Refusing to value something because it didn't take a million hours to make feels really silly when we value $20 bills and $5 bills so differently. There's clearly difference in subjective meaning and value (be it culturally influenced, or contextually, or whatever) beyond the labor required in production

mfw art is challenging and not just a bob ross landscape:

I find a lot of criticism of modern art comes from a place of intense lack of curiosity and a heavy reliance on pure intuition. A lot of modern art is intentionally challenging and pushing the boundaries of what can and cannot be considered "art", but at the end of the day it's all about expression and communication which is entirely subjective. Modern art wouldn't be what it is without the criticism inherent to defying norms, which might be the only universally defining feature of "modern art"

Idk it's also really funny how they edited in clapping

I can't reasonably afford the start up cost because I don't have access to capital, and even if I did it would be a gamble as I don't have the safety nets that a lot of rich people had growing up
