art is at its essence social commentary and video games are not allowed to have social commentary. So no, OP, video games are not art.

They are art, even if most game players don't treat it as art.

I reject the bourgeois ideology inherent in the reactionary duality of art/not-art/nature and its implicit phallogocentrim. As a wise rishi once whispered in my ears; what if we are pixels dreaming we are goons makes u think

They're as much art as Hollywood blockbuster movies are. Or pop music. Or trashy romance novels. If Twilight, Eragon, Fifty Shades, etc. are art, then Call of Duty is art too. That is to say, okay, video games are art, but remember Sturgeon's law: 90% of art is crap. Video games being art isn't something to be proud. Being art just means your precious games are the equivalent of a giant inflatable butt plug. Cat Mattress fucked around with this message at 15:38 on Nov 1, 2014 |

No because art is by its nature a subjective thing, and the gamer community demands that video games should be reviewed objectively.

I think games have the capacity to become art, like pretty much all other mediums. Some games are art, but not all. Same goes with books and movies, etc. Its mostly up to the individual.

an art where you passively take in 60%-70% of the sensory experience, where most things straddle the divide between abstract and naturalist, and the ideas encoded are made by committee. no

icantfindaname posted:Socialist realism is the only revolutionary form of art which will lead the proletariat to freedom Confined within the bounds of the bourgeois milieu ("the game"), the agency of the worker ("player") is embedded in the ideological structure of capitalism. Only by rejecting capitalism seizing the means of production ("code") can the worker be free. The worker still cannot get laid, which requires seizing the "soap" and embedding the worker in the context of "a goddamn shower," whereby the worker liberated to the realm of authentic social self-constitution.

Videogames are like a building that sometimes gets used for art exhibitions and sometimes for laser tag.

Is the purpose of art to entertain, to stimulate human development, or to show off through your consumption as a means of demonstrating your superiority? Clearly, most video games are structured to fall under at least one of these three.

It's unironically amusing how a manifesto about how each man should be free to do whatever he wants with his time has been warped into the state intruding into and passing ideological judgment on every possible activity.

No I think Marx was pretty clear about the Revolution basically dominating the lives of everyone in society. His economics doesn't necessarily require it, but the political stuff definitely leans that way. I'm not a Marxist FYI Also public arts funding has nothing to do with Marxism, and is good icantfindaname fucked around with this message at 08:31 on Nov 2, 2014 |
