Re: <nettime> Lev on the embarressment of digital art

[John Young <jya@pipeline.com>]

Art, or "art," has become so ubiquitous it is a challenge to avoid 
it, like pervasive mania for science in the early 20th century 
succeeded religion as a must have, and political ideology a 
compulsory requirement of sclerotic intelligentialism. CBD-Tech art, 
digital or 3D crafting, or murderous weaponry, or viral disease, or 
viral SM, or viral stupefaction of dread of deathlessness and loss of 
income and tenure and benefits and openings and pharma and promotion 
of mordant careers, on nettime, where elseware, but just one of many 
sinks of despair, boredom, colorectal metastasis, repugnancies of Wei 
Wei and Met Roofings and shrieking come fuck me supertalls quivering 
with grinding tuned mass dampers escaping tie-downs, vast empty SHoP 
penthouses decorated with cruddiest of auction-wear for subsidized 
real estate photos in clamorous non-English brochures online, where 
elseware, anyware artlessness is everyware artfullness. Grab a 
stimulus paycheck dear workwareless entrepreneurs.
