This guy explains what I think "Art" is better than I ever could. Please watch the whole video if you intend to comment.

I am really interested to see what Dann thinks of this. Mostly cause hes the only one I know that can speak on the subject of Art with out sounding like a dumb ass and I respect his thoughts on the subject greatly. ( Not that I don't respect every one elses its just to a much lesser degree than I respect Dans)

Mildly interesting and indeed shamefully beholed (be-hole, existence therein). He does, however, fall into the same logical error as most people do; Incapability to define Art through a mentally-rigged rational thinking is what subjects Art to being a deceiving definition from which none can be developed from within or upon. Some of the points the guy in the video raises are quite interesting but are raised fallaciously. In a self-indulgent attitude of defining Art for what it can be logically accepted as, he strayed from the origins of Art and has thereafter, explained not what it signifies but rather, its constitution. Intrinsically, humanity has this glorious empowered vanity from which the will to understand and define is born from within. Conversely, we too know most unbearably that the most insufficient thing in our lives is the insufficiently of explanation. It was then that we started taking issue with the How and the Why and the What For. Call it the "Understanding the Understandability", if you will. A triangle-like system that indeed thrusts a mistrusted sense of boundaries is shockingly, what provides us, Humans, with the ability to deem something as either "Good" or "Bad", "Dispensable" or "Indispensable", aso -- rational wise. Yet, despite all its mighty perfectness (that from which the ability to understand is resolved around and acknowledged as), the system or signifier-break-down attempt resolves as insufficient:
1. What is Art? - The ability to express, create, constitute, conceive, consider, feel and accept such as.
2. Who is Art? - Art is anonymously something we understand and conceive as being, regardless.
3. Why is Art? - Reassured human necessity at its best. Utterly self-satisfatory. EstimulatÃs
4. How is Art? - Art is resolute at being. Insufficiency of explanation is what weights its existence. Sensations henceforth, is what generates its impact.
I'll stop now. Surely, this post would turn into a book if I were to put every thought floating around my head on the subject down to paper.

The book of Dann, volume 4.
I didn't bother to watch the video above but I did bother to read Dann's explanation. The first paragraph is pretty much why the video author is wrong and then Dann goes on to correct it. I agree with the bolded numbers, especially number 3.
-
Didn't watch the video, but I read Dann's response. I'm not going to lie, I didn't understand it very well, but I do agree with the 4 bullet points he made.
-
I am turned on with everyone's input on this.
-
Yeah I noticed his logical errors as well. In some points he seems to trap him self in his own reasoning. I do like your simplified version though.
-
Do not take this personally or offensively, but this is exactly why the world isn't going anywhere nowadays.
A someone writes some sense into the abstractness of concepts; everyone else falls to simply agree with/to it.
-
Dann, I agree to it because your logic makes sense. I don't have a huge largely founded opinion on the subject because I'm not art-motivated.

I forgot to add you as an exception to what I said, did I not? Fuck.
Nate, most of the stuff I say about the community here does not apply to you. Unless stated otherwise or referred to individually.

Why am I not laughing?

You lost me.
I honestly did not understand why you were "LMFAOing".
Would you be so kind to explain?
-
I felt like it.
-
HOLY SHIT! Calm down you two, quit this fighting!
-
Sorry, I guess I get a bit heated in these situation. ::)
-
Just for the record, I wasn't being sarcastic nor did I want anything of what I said to be taken offensively --Hence why I started off by saying "Do not take this personally nor offensively".
-
^^^ doesnt apply to me cos i didnt conform like the rest of u sheep
So you are either a wolf, or a jewish sheep.

What the hell happened to my art thread...you people....
