Like a nice painting, or a sculpture or something.

This is a normal post To me Art is something that
communicates a concept, and it can be a abstract concept, by a medium that has a certain higher level of composition to usual.

So a good political speech can be considered art, just like a poem. As a good political speech will often make use of rhythm etc. Further expression of what can come naturally; humming for example, is pretty much natural, making a work of art of music involves calculated composition of, well, humming.

Also, Art is whatever has that special... something; which I suppose is the success in composition, but hard to quantify.

If an artist makes something and then has to tell you what it represents then s/he has pretty much failed. The idea of art is to express to the person experiencing the art, not for the person making it. Modern art such as this wank is, in my opinion, doodling. I doodle on a sheet of paper, and hell, sometimes that can actually represent my thoughts at the time to someone who sees it (zigzags show chaotic thoughts, etc.), but it's pretty much still a doodle. Coating a skull in diamonds is just a very expensive doodle.

This is a normal post Hmmm
I think it's now fairly acceptable to say that art isn't limited to things that are aesthetically pleasing. Art can be ugly and still be worthwhile if, for example, it has a political or social message (a genuine one, not a tenuous one) or if it evokes certain feelings in the person observing it.

But as a defender of 'modern art', this kind of thing depresses me. It has no worth, no artistic intent, no message, no aesthetic value and is shock for the sake of shock. It's horrible. If artists want modern art to be taken seriously, this kind of rubbish has to stop.

Having said that, if this IS art, I'd paint more often.

This is a normal post Agreed!
I like a lot of modern art. I just think a lot of the time the message is lost. Take Shibboleth in the Tate Modern currently; it just doesn't click with everyone, so close, yet just not quite there.

Also, the message doesn't necessarily need to be an opinion or story or anything, it can just be portrayal of a 'feeling'. So for example Louise Bourgeois's sculptures, such as circular rooms, and cages with chairs in... and the big eff-off spider! (That's so friggin' cool... though it is bordering on doodle, I dare say, but a cool doodle none the less.)

Though when she went menopausal, oh god, did it show in her work. "Looky! I maded a penis out of marble!"

This is a normal post True
Modern Art is a tricky subject because it attracts such vitriol from traditionalists. The knee jerk reaction from advocates of modern art is to claim that traditionalists are standing in the way of progress and that modern art does have value and worth (emotional, political etc.).

I think the people that make this point have a good argument, but it's hard to maintain it when artists are wanking on paper and selling it.

It is upsetting how quick people are to put down modern art though.

This is a normal post Not perpetual
The magnetic pull will gradually fail over time thanks to the element halflife and will always vary slightly with the shift in the magnetic pole (of the Earth). Therefore a decrease in the power supplied follows, ergo not a perpetual motion machine. I did a bit of research into this for something else and this tidbit stuck in my head. Slashdot also had a similar story a few months ago but can't be arsed to look through the archives...

I feel like I must be missing the point slightly with the Optimus Maximus keyboard...

First of all it sounds suspiciously like a Transformer but that's besides the point.

What I don't understand is this: It is nothing more than a keyboard with OLED screens in the keys am I right? So you can reprogram them to display what you want and perform the task you assign to it. This does sound pretty handy, but I'm not sure why the hype surrounding it is akin to the second coming of Jebus?

Please explain, I'm genuinely sure I'm missing something here..
