This can't be real. This just CANNOT be real. People cannot be this idiotic, ignorant, and so engulfed in a world of pseudo-arts to consider a blank art. It's just like that guy who supposedly wrote a book, but all the pages were blank. I don't care what abstract philosophies people place on their non-art, a blank is nothing. Art must be seen. Art is VISUAL. Take the visual from it and it ceases to be art.
I saw this yesterday, and couldn't believe it, thinking it was a joke, but it's real! It's true! I was obsessed with that film, dreamt of it constantly, now it's becoming-- in some shape or form -- a reality. Weird!
I think language has the power to change what we think. Think of the way we discard and introduce new words into the language, or change their meaning. Gay used to mean happy, now we all associate that word with homosexuals. Or the way we must dumb down certain ideas so that the average reader understands it. Or the way sometimes there are so many thoughts in one's head and one cannot think of a right word to use, for it doesn't exist or has been destroyed. Language is powerful. I've seen so many try to convey their ideas, but their vocabulary being so poor, their ideas -- even if they're great -- come out as mediocre.
So anyone that adds a circle and a slit to a true piece of art work is an artist now? And I thought 'artists' couldn't get any worse after seeing those that use their urine and feces as art. The destruction of art, how wretched!
There was a similar story a few weeks back, about some guy who got his laptop stolen, he had the same software on his laptop, and he tweeted about it, got some people to help him out locate the thief and on and on until it was shipped back to him. . . . Is this the same story or a different one? Two similar incidents in a row? I think it's a marketing campaign.
