Name Game: The Physical Impossibility of Art in the Mind of Someone Gaming

[DTWolfwood]

Well there are interactive art pieces out there. And if the piece involves the viewer to change the piece on a videoscreen for fun, does that not constitute art as a 'videogame'?

Actually they can act as video games. Anyone remember Echochrome!? That game proved that the works of M.C.Escher (and the mindfuckery of it all with it's perspective changes) can serve as a damn good game.

great example.

This is art. You will hear a buzzer. When you hear the buzzer, stare at the art.

On topic: Does Black Velvetopia from Psychonauts count as "prior art"?

And so Jack died, when he lost controle of the bike. His death was long and unbearable.Alix was found guilty of reckless driving and manslaughter.
Kinda a buzzkill there.

she doesn't strike me like toad... more like Wario....
hmmmmmm

Spoiler: it's the mustache

The writer is familiar with Damien Hirst I'm guessing. That's...actually kind of impressive.

 

[dghjdgdjf]

Haha, nice.

I still think that Bioshock is one of the greatest pieces of art. The setting, the atmosphere, the story... All united in wonderful harmony.

If that's not art, then I don't want to know what art is.

And the Portal quoting begins...

hahah in all seriousness though this was a great one. That Andy Warhol painting would be worth thousands, and she just threw it under a moving motorcycle to prove a theory... an incredibly awesome theory lol

 

[manythings]

I'm surprised it wasn't a lesser artist getting teabagged at an exhibition.

YES! Someone got the title! I'm so happy. And I have witnessed his work first hand. Quite interesting indeed.

Art is controversy (Please don't touch).

Art as a game? Photoshop.

Root of all Evil, you've fufilled your moniker. Someone microsoft ban this last spoiler.

And funnay comic this week. Keep it up

 

[irishda]

I'd be careful saying they're gonna get the respect they deserve

 

[Mad1Cow]

Brilliant comic...

And...yeah I can see art as video games...maybe if we tried to do something like Fantasia was to animation, then I can easily see that happening. Night on Bald Mountain with Amnesia: The Dark Decent gameplay?


Hell to the yes my friend...

 

[Imp_Emissary]

This was quite a good episode. Very funny joke.
I didn't get until someone talked about Mario kart, but that just made it better!
Though I don't think Jack will be so amused....at least not until she
explains the joke while signing his cast.

 

[Fightgarr]

Man... the paintings on that wall were SUPER close together. Like... almost absurdly so. And Alix, thank you for not doing that to the Degas.

 

[Tireseas_v1legacy]

The ultimate irony? Warhol (the guy who painted the banana) would have probably given this a thumbs up in real life.

 

[leviadragon99]

Well.. depends on how literal you want to be with 'art as a videogame'.
