tetris is commentary about how once you have done your duty and found your place you are removed from the world, no longer an object of interest or worth being aware of as more than numbers it's also about how 4row lines are the best shape and the backwards z things suck poo poo

My Lovely Horse posted:I once read a book on exactly that subject that argued, quite convincingly or at least it made sense to me, that video games were not inherently art, but that of course any individual game had the potential to be art, listed several games that were and weren't art (like, according to quite serious philosophical groundwork on the subject of art), and perhaps most importantly made the point that a game's quality as art was almost entirely independent of its quality as a game. Tetris - unarguably great game, captivating and influential, but not, philosophically speaking, art.

I thought it was pretty well accepted that art is the experience the viewer has in response the art object, and that the creation of art objects is simply an attempt to generate art from the beholder? And that’s why art can happen by accident, but not all art objects are really “art” except to a very few people? Or am I having a Hegelian flare-up again, gently caress. I was told the ointment would prevent this

Speaking personally, I was never mad at Ebert about video games. I was, however, annoyed at him being an intellectually dishonest weasel who attempted to redefine what "art" means rather than simply admit he made a bad call.

Video games are a medium in which you can create art, farts, and anything in between.

Pick posted:If you don't think cspam advocating for the return of the monarchy is funny, I just don't know what to tell you man Plato declared that benevolent monarchy was the ideal form of government almost as soon as democracy was invented, for precisely the reason that anyone who actively sought out power couldn't be trusted with it. Socrates further added that it was better to be ruled by an evil tyrant than by a bad democracy, because at least the people hadn't chosen to be ruled by the tyrant. 2,500 years and nothing has changed, has it?

Invisible Clergy posted:Reminds me of that vice article where the journalist wrote about how his grandma killed most of his family members. As she slid into senescence, she kept trying to poison her family, but she grew too dumb, blind, and lazy to do it stealthily anymore, so would hand you a beer with an inch of rat poison powder on the top of it and her family would just scrape it into a potted plant and say "haha, not today, ma. Try harder next time. See you for dinner Sunday." That poo poo was bananas.
