OT Cool or disturbing?

Women in Art.

 

Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, Lady Nina

Cool.

But where was the tennis player scratching her arse?

 

The Rubens or the Beryl Cook version?

People have similar faces. Wow.

I enjoyed the music

 

Oh, "art".

I admire the work that went into the morphing algorithm more than any
of the portrayals thus shown.

 

Oh I remember that video - was it for Cry?

Women with melty faces!!

I'm reading something girly and self improving and it's made me cry
twice and I'm only on page 76. [1]

Synchronicity with one of the things above.

[1] I've also laughed and learnt stuff (including some choice Italian
history and phrases) so that's OK

 

Indeed. Still gets to me - but that because it has particular
associations with the year it was released.
I'm sure everyone knows it but just in case:

Slightly unsettling. Perhaps because we are trying to 'read' the emotion
of one face, and it transmogrifies before we can.

I hadn't realised Berger was a novelist as well as art critic etc. He
writes, at least in this work, in a very simple prose style. TBF, I only
grabbed a used paperback copy of Amazon because of finding mention of
the main character riding a bike. Some good, almost ZATAMM-like
references already and more to come I suspect.

I suspect the artists who painted the works used will be remembered long
after the code writer has gone. Is that a bad thing?

They *all* had their mouths shut (I think).

 

I ike the one with the curly hair and the hat.

 

Makes a fucking change to find just one woman in that state.

 

Looks like an acid trip to me.

 

Looks like as time went on people got worse at drawing.

 

heh, I was thinking the exact opposite.

 

Some of the simply drawn ones munted less than the oils.

 

We still remember the names of Euclid, Newton, Liebnitz, Riemann and
Knuth who, I suspect, are the big names behind those calculations.

 

I managed to watch about 15 seconds of it before I decided "boring".

 

I was kind of surprised that for so long women with no cheekbones at all
were total crumpet. Maybe my tastes are funny.
Cubism is sort of funky, but photo-realistic painting scares the pants
off me.

 

Women with cheek bones look better, imo but maybe it was the fashion to
have none in the same way it was fashionable to be very white.

It's a cliche but I don't know much about art[1] but I know what I like.
Why does photo-realistic stuff scare you? Do photographs themselves
scare you?

[1] The paintings, really. For example, when I go down to Denmark St and
see the guitars hanging in the window I think they look gorgeous and the
way the light looks on some buildings etc. etc.

 

Cool, but but as it's essentially the same trick repeated I was bored
by half way through.
