RE: modern art and aesthetics questions for nykytyne2 (response to daa)

[ZangaroZen]

@Cristoballs, took 10 seconds to scan through your latest masterpiece. Long gone are the days of well researched and presented videos like this one R7NBWKHjxv8.

How far you've fallen over the last 6 months.

Unsubscribed.

[cristoballs]

@ZangaroZen sorry. perhaps i should join you in waiting for response vids to htww so i too can leave itemized comments about him being jewish and a corporate shill, and flood the comments section parsing every word of any comment directed at me. would you resubscribe to me then?

[ZangaroZen]

@cristoballs

1. I post to many users

2. A tiny fraction of HTWW videos get my posts. You "flood the comment section" far more prolifically

3. The irony of: a Jew bashing Islam; corporate shill praising corporatism, rarely comes up

You hate "itemized comments" like above? You're issue not mine.

You ask "would you resubscribe", try returning to "well researched and presented videos". Speaking of which how's that series of pro-HTWW videos coming? Been 6 months. Don't have the cristoballs?

[cristoballs]

@ZangaroZen i don't believe i ever promised to making any pro-htww videos. anyhoo, take care. no hard feelings about the unsubscribing. laters.

[ZangaroZen]

@cristoballs, made how many "well researched and presented videos" epically pwning HTWW did you make? A dozen?

Then you had a 180 degree change of heart. You were all wrong about HTWW, he was actually a great guy, did quality research, extremely knowledgeable, and you mostly agree with him now. REMEMBER?

If the above is true then the moral thing to do is apologize to HTWW, and what better way than making a few pro-HTWW videos. It's the least you can do after all those other videos.

[gildor67]

I get such a feeling of.. blackness...

[cristoballs]

@gildor67 interesting... btw, in order to capture the full effect, i think you need to watch the vid in 480p. much better video quality, and the sound is so much more crisp.

[FatStupidAmerican]

cristoballs

You are fucking awesome.

[cristoballs]

@FatStupidAmerican i'm really digging the feedback on this vid. i'm guessing daa didn't like it so much. i tried posting it as a response to his vid. it went unapproved for 2 days, so i finally decided to just add it to nyk's vid.

[VecDaddysback]

I find no empirical evidence of art in this video. Therefore, this video does not exist! ;)

[Noobletio]

Please more of this, its good footage, like the angle of camera

[sepharoth02]

Ahhh I get it.

[hobbes71002]

My impression of me watching this video:

Dum dee dum dee dum...

Coulda trimmed this a bit...

Jeez, c'mon...

What's this video called again? hmmm... "modern art..." oh no...

I'll skip ahead a little... CURSES!

*finished 'watching' video*

*posts comment*

*feels good about contributing to modern art exhibit*

[cristoballs]

@hobbes71002 oddly enough, that's exactly what i was going for with this piece:-P

[krlsurquixa]

This reminds me of a John Cage piece.

[cristoballs]

@N0SACREDC0WS this could be a series of videos in the making. maybe i'll even make full use of the 15 minute time limit:-)

[Darw1n1st]

what a peaceful video. I'll fav. and come back here the next time i need a break from the busy noisy life.

[cristoballs]

@Darw1n1st :-)

[Darw1n1st]

lol

[cristoballs]

@Shydrow MORTAL KOMBAAAAAAAAAAAAT!!!!!!

[AlmightyZaitsev]

I skipped through so correct me if I'm wrong but thats 5:01 o' black screen? John Cage in a visual .flv format?

I don't get the whole "Anything can be art" idea. I agree that it's hard to pin point the exact point at which something ceases to or begins to be art but that doesn't mean everything is art. We just haven't found a way to measure it yet.

[cristoballs]

@AlmightyZaitsev "I skipped through so correct me if I'm wrong but thats 5:01 o' black screen? John Cage in a visual .flv format?"

correct.

[themiddleman009]

no sound for me

[cristoballs]

@themiddleman009 there is no sound... only silence.

[socrates856]

@cristoballs I heard water flowing in the neighbor's apartment, the fan of my PC, the ping sound of an incoming email and my own breathing.

[cristoballs]

@socrates856 my bad... i stand corrected. i meant to say, no sound was provided by me:-)

[PropheciesofWar]

This could be a John Cage piece or perhaps Dada?

[navimud]

Almost speechless... great piece of satirical art, in my humble opinion.

[socrates856]

I just realized that black is not really black on my monitor. That on top of the dust-specs that came out nicely. If you look at it for 5 minutes there are odd faint glimmers that pop up. It was also really relaxing given all the drama and pwning that goes on otherwise. Neat! Thanks for the artwork.

[Godlessons]

LMAO, I would actually say this is art, since it sends a message.

[cristoballs]

@Godlessons oh sweet irony!!!:-O

[navimud]

@Godlessons "LMAO, I would actually say this is art, since it sends a message."

QFT

[NYjon888]

Everybody knows that modern "art" only counts as art if a famous artist does it!!!

[liknital07]

???

[cristoballs]

@liknital07 i think it helps to watch nykytyne2's original video on this issue, then listen to daa's 15 min. long-winded response. that might clarify things.

[missmahnee]

wishing you could have made your point in less than 5 min.

[cristoballs]

@missmahnee i'm an artist, and i needed all of those 5 minutes to convey my artistic message.:-)

[missmahnee]

@cristoballs point well taken...again:)
