Obviously Bento meant hate speech. Let's nitpick semantics here.

Milk is no more intelligent than simple PHP script.

I wonder if he can google PHP script.

a skilled plumber who is passionate about his job is a great artist. plumbing is art.

would you agree with these statements?

it was still kinda dumb to call bouguereau "devoid of passion" though.
Yes fagot, because plumbing is a hallucination inducing device. Learn to read.

Best thread ever. This will be my last post before I return to my eternal lurk. My favourite TIGS poster was Miro.

And say that it is "devoid of passion" is a subhuman faggot that has no sense of place or humility to the masters.
I didn't experience any intense flash of passion, which I attributed to the calm, somewhat boring subject matter, which has also been reproduced on endless objects.

The experience is different when looking at a photograph and another to see the painting itself, seeing the brushstrokes, the size, getting an idea of the amount of effort and skill that was required. Likewise, background knowledge about the artist, subject, time it was painted can affect one's appreciation. Even personal taste, life experiences and current state of mind have an effect.

Nothing more than a mentally retarded adults who can't understand humor, so they can only laugh when the screen tells them to.

I dunno, this page is becoming funnier all the time.

So yeah, praise Picasso or Pollock or whatever your social game tells you to, once the renewal comes back in full swing, you will be back to the same place as the ones who crushed Rembrandt -- nothing more than a vile con-artists deserving only the footnote in history.

But we are playing the same game: Praising and belittling games, paintings, music and people according to our fancy. You need a fascist state capable of serious mind control, outlawing and declaring paintings degenerate before people will agree on painting.

Sure, you can see it as a social game too, but that isn't the whole picture. Hipsters get mocked, still a lot of people dress weird, listen to obscure artists, play simple games and like Picasso.

As they say, you can lead a retard to water, but you can't make them drink.

Nope, but you can still act like a retard, trying to.

Oh and I don't agree with people because they are dead, only a faggot could think like that. And it is my standard you moron, although I picked them in relatively short amount of time. Still, between Pollock and that? No question.

Between Pollock and Bourgerau? Bourgerau. I'd imagine I'd still tire of being restricted to either one. When I came back from Rome, I was so saturated with statues and paintings that I was happy to get away from the city.

I've been following both Tigsource / Insomnia, used to hang at AGS, don't agree with Nietzche, play games, haven't got any out-there releases to show (didn't finish any adventure games). I have some old backgrounds etc, will be left to see if I get something done.

(painting of giant cocks, wittily replacing what poster actually said)
wow, really

Also tbh that painting, even though it's of two giant penises, still seems to exhibit more skill than anything I've seen by Picasso so far. As for Bouguereau vs. Monet...I don't know, the first painting posted shows a lot more skill and refinement than the second one to me. Dali was probably the best of the "modern artists" IMO.

I get easily bored of the angels and religious symbolism in "realistic" paintings too, but a quick look around easily shows that's not all these people painted.

BTW I'd still love to see a response to Tromack's question:

Quote from: Tromack
How do you propose one should objectively measure the complexity of a game?
State-tree complexity? Game-tree complexity? Kolmogorov complexity?!?

Take the game of chess for example (great example that it is).  It has existed for ~500 years, is one of the most popular games in the world, and yet, no one knows exactly how complex it is.  There are estimates, certainly, but there are no definitive proofs of exactly how complex chess is.  This is a game that millions of people have thought about and it only has ~11 rules.

I want you (or any person devoted to the idea that complexity == worth of game) to answer two questions for me.
1) How would you objectively measure the complexity of a game?
2) How would this tell you the inherent worth of a game (or why a game with more complexity is better than one with less)?

Especially that first one. I'm suspecting that the answer is something like "the extent to which the player can meaningfully impact the game world through his actions," but I'm not completely sure.

Painting? That's a real dick, man.

EDIT: Also yes really. There's a reason for it too. If I came to this forum to post dicks like I child, I think I'd have posted more of them by now.
