wrong. unless these search engines have an ad play, they aren't the next google. More like the next internet explorer if anything.

They're talking about the founder. You'd know this if your reading comprehension skills were up to par with your knowledge of what country TikTok isn't in. Otherwise, that tidbit is tangential at best, and doesn't provid

Ah okay apologies, thought Duchamp made it. But yeah, I'd agree with you, they saw something as art that was not created to be. So they're just wrong. It's like if someone couldn't find a toilet so they just took a dump

I'd probably drop the fine and call what you call fine art, art. But functionally, would likely agree with the distinctions you make between them.

You may have misinterpreted certain aspects of my blog post. If someone created something that they didn't intend as art, no matter what my reception is, it's not art. So before Duchamp exhibited it as art, it is certainly not art

They can be great screenshots, no doubt! Stop motion animation can be great too. I've heard great things about Isle of Dogs, and other stop motion movies from studio Laika. And yeah, they can certainly be artistic .

Sure, I can make it more clear. Yes, you're right, it's not just about skill and effort. But I am claiming that for me, no photography is art. I concede that it can be artistic , but not art. I am indeed asserting, without proof,

That's consistent with my claim that I "agree, photography is not art". Feel free believe to the contrary. Also, my original post takes no stance on the objective reality of the universe and the cosmos as experienced by the f

Yeah I think that's pretty fair. Music, theatre, cinema are performing arts. Not art. You qualify it with "performing". And that's my point really. It's a distinction based on definition. Collectively, institutions

Yeah, I mean, that pretty much sums it up. Of course, you're free to think differently. I think that's pretty fair. You don't tell me what's art, and neither I, you.

That's great. And yeah you're right, a drawing with a flick of the pencil probably sucks. But it's still a drawing. It took some level of effort - the less effort, the more it sucks. But in the end, I make art. For a photo, t

Kind of. I like to quantify a certain threshold of skill and effort before I qualify something as art. For instance, a 4 year old drawing scribbles, I would consider art. There was skill, however minimal involved. It might not be very good,

Sure great points. But in my view, it remains just that, a photograph. A photograph can be deliberate, complex, and evoke many emotions. It can be pleasing, utterly horrific, or anything in between. But when I take art classes, I'm not

did you guys blow your budget on the 3d render, the spinning rotating scroll based tree growth animation, and an intern to write this wall of text?
