Museum of RTA? ATR? tar? rat? TRA?

Dave? Are you listening? We don’t get it! Help!!

AI is threatening to turn art – human creativity – into a commodity called “content”.

Hmmm. Or, people who cannot fathom why some things are called art got put in charge. (Yes, I’m among them.)

It woulda been easier to just puts an F before ART.

Discontent would be more accurate.

It’s the thought that counts.

A classical case of ‘content vs content’.

What has happened to the museum’s original purpose/intent?

Wherefore art thou?

You call that CONTENT?

Sad….

Marc Brown’s first outlet store was too small, so he gifted the building to the town and moved on to a larger facility.

I think it’s a commentary that what’s considered art today isn’t. There is so much crap in art museums today.

A longer line just wasn’t “MENT” to be.

Art is whatever you can get away with as exhibited in these pixels daily.

Oh, no the building is empty!

He’s just wasting time, arting around.

ART has been replaced by CONTENT in so many areas of life. it is sad really, but true.

They sent the wrong font for the word ART so the dude had to improvise.

Is that con’-tent, or con-tent’ ?

Maybe a “Museum of Content” in a few decades, but never to replace a Museum of Art!

“Art” and “Music” are both totally in the perception of the beholder – the judgement of art, especially, is subject to personal interpretation.

I do not require that anyone validate my “likes” in either field, as long as my likes are not condemned out-of-hand by others…

There is a museum of tents used by swindlers?

Ah, the useless postmodernist wave has reached our museums.
