ARrrr...t.

I've decided to open up a video museum. Mainly so I can steal editing techniques.

I only ask that all videos be family friendly as well as entertaining and possessive of some sort of artistic merit in addition to awaking our better natures while eschewing those base impulses that drive the animal nature within us all, and if possible, representative of those Conservative values that truly underpin the pernicious truths and slanderous statements of fact that comprise the vast majority of the insalubrious and hate filled postings that constitute the oily veneer of relevancy to this illustrious and well nigh' omnipotent website.

Yeah, I know it's a tough act to follow. Let me break the ice.

Performance Art. Brilliant. See peoples, the rules of "Art" has more loopholes than a crochet rug. Hell, some people are even inspired by (gah) mother nature.

[Spirit of Ronald Reagan]

Let's hear it for loopholes.

Now for something that sounds like art

[Aaron Burr]

Art is everywhere. Even under your hood.

One of the nice things about having what amounts to an interactive blog is that I don't have to worry about boring anyone to death.

Sure, the previous vid was a little slow and didn't have a huge payoff at the end, but if it was supposed to, the artist would have done it. Personally, I enjoyed critiquing the artists welding skills. I've seen a lot of metal sculpture. The one thing they all have in common is crappy welds. I guess the layman wouldn't notice (or so the artist thinks) but anybody who's ever taken a shop class would.

I figure metal artists are gay for the texture of rough edged, heat fatigued, crappily welded bits of steel and junk and really don't have a full understanding of their medium.

Hells' yeah I'm an Art Critic.

The point is, if metal sculpturists were required to apprentice for a couple of years at a hot rod shop, more of them would be able to make wonderfully useless junk like this.

The composition and color palette of that work was quite sophisticated. I found that the tension maintained throughout the piece, resulting from the Artistes brilliant use of limited animation techniques was surprisingly engaging. The viewer becomes drawn into the piece, anxiously waiting, waiting, waiting, for the ding, fries are done.

Video magic.

I don't see how this could possibly compare, but the beauty of a museum lies in its hidden treasures, not in its stunning showstoppers that draw millions of paying customers every year supporting the lavish and outlandish lifestyles of museum curators around the globe.
