Dot competition.
PS I like yours better.
What was the first vid you ever posted to VS? (Happy Talk Post)
First sift evar! (Not exactly a happy one)

I first saw this in a book I had, but instead had a stick figure in the demonstration.
Horse gets split into pieces from The Cell movie.
This movie references other art such as Odd Nerdrum.

The "Bodies" Exhibition also ripped off the idea with the human body.

A total rip-off of Damien Hirst's work. But a great scene.

Too much concept, and not enough craft.
GQ:
Wow. I wholeheartedly disagree. Do you know how much craft goes into something like this? I agree that much of its substance lies in the conceptual, but my god man, that is a beautifully crafted art object. Check out the documentary PBS's art:21 did on him. You may appreciate the work more if you see how much knowledge and artistry goes into his pieces.
CRAKE:
Sorry for the terse comment, I just used your video as an occasion to whine about a pet peeve of mine, that a lot of artists these days only do just enough work to convey some concept or message, and don't particularly care about the quality of the end result.
The half-hearted mushroom cloud is a good example - or Damien Hirst paying some contractor to do the actual hands-on work of making his pieces.
Not much love seems to go into it, is what I'm saying, I guess.
Nah. Its cool. No offense taken. I don't post videos for everyone to just agree with my tastes. I like my tastes to be challenged. I actually killed the video because I found one that I absolutely had to post, but it had already been posted. So its gone now
In any case, there is a way in which much art these days seems half-hearted, as you would put it. And though I still don't agree that Qiang's work in any way constitutes a half-hearted attempt at conveying an idea or feeling, I understand where you are coming from. Hirst IS a particularly good example, and its easy to hate him when he is selling his shit for record-setting prices. Westy pointed out that the piece ended up looking like a giant piece of floating crap at the end. I think that is part of the point. For a moment, it is really beautiful, but that is really fading. Blah blah blah. I don't know... i bet it would have looked amazing if the quality of the video was better.

Alphaville - Sounds Like A Melody (1984)
^oh, those golden days where microphones were golden..it's also elitist and kitsch/posh..Damien Hirst should make a mic full of diamonds and present it to Britney..
Channel 4 Inside Westboro Baptist Cult
swampgirl you have no idea who this guy is, do you?
don't worry, i did the 30 seconds of wikipeding for you.
"He was a member of Fat Les, a band which also contained Britpop artists Damien Hirst and Blur bassist Alex James. Allen was also closely associated with the band New Order. He co-wrote their only UK number one single, World In Motion, and occasionally performed with them live."
"on the BBC's arts & culture programme The Late Show when Keith Allen as a guest on the show got into an extremely heated row with the panel over his view that comedy was now being hamstrung to appease rules of political correctness. Just before storming off the live broadcast, Allen - a veteran of the early 1980s wave of UK "alternative" comedians that had shocked many - had stormed at an Asian member of the panel that was for tighter controls that "It's not a chip you've got on your shoulder, it's a fucking vindaloo!" Allen later explained to press reporters that a vindaloo is as faux ethnic (this piece of Indian cuisine actually originated from Portugal) as those who masquerade as self-appointed spokespeople for ethnic minority communities' rights in order to censor arts and culture according to their own pet prejudices."
over your head, eh?
Damien Hirst - Diamond Embedded Skull
According to Damien Hirst on the Charlie Rose show, this is owned by the artist and a syndicate that includes the folks who fronted the diamonds. There's talk of it being valued at 100 million dollars or so, with 12 million dollars worth of diamonds. Maybe that's true. This is important because this is the world we live in. I think the financing is part of the art.
Channel Icons - New Concepts (Sift Talk Post)
I wish there was more recent artwork to use for the “art” channel. It’s too bad that recent artists are not household names like Mondrian or Warhol. Works by Takashi Murakami, Damien Hirst or Matthew Barney would probably just stir things up around here. Mixing two art styles would at least suggest postmodernism, 1980’s to the present.

As for the cartoon channel, maybe show the little hand crank as a blur in motion? Or maybe add eyes and a mouth? Big animé eyes?
The green for “viral” makes me think “soylent green.”
