i don't get the whole "lets be emotionless and hate on everything because we're nihilistic" I'm rather nihilistic, I believe there is no meaning to life, that we create and associate all things with a value made up in our heads, but I actually think that's fucking awesome. Masters of our own destiny, able to do anything, etc etc. Why would anyone want to be an emotionless pit of shit when you're the master of your own destiny?

I agree. Nihilism, and I'm not going to debate it, is freedom from just about everything. All I can say is this is spectacle, not art. Much like the circus side shows of yore.
 
I showed this to a friend on facebook, turns out he saw it before and that he has two mutual friends with the girl in question.

I'm still not sure what I saw. But I do know that some of the reactions of the crowd are awesome.
 
I'm more confused how this can be called art. That's the biggest crock that I can see.

I agree, it's twisted. Rock stars, opera singers, performers, dancers, all artists in their own right. Unfortunately, any no talent hack can get in front of a crowd, do anything, and then call it a performance. (I just explained 99% of youtube videos by accident, lol.)
 
Where to begin? I felt that the visuals presented were very simultaneously striking as well as domesticated. The entire process while trans formative was a physical representation of the artist’s inner dialectic, juxtaposing saffron spirituality and utilitarian objects in a compromised setting.

The beginning of the performance left a lot to be desired, but as the artist's struggle to open the can continues one feels a sense of frustration about the Bush administration and a sobering reminder of post 9/11 neo-colonialism, it mitigates the very phallocentric nature of neo-culture in John Asscroft’s aMeRIkkkA, where every wardrobe malfunction becomes a gesture of the feminine violent against a landscape of testicular domination.

The cutting of the jeans with scissors represents the oppression/repression of Womyn by straight white males, and the urinating on floor is a cyclically temporal Wiccan interpretive dance that politicized polarizing gender resistance. Interesing to note is how the rather ethnocentric crowd watches this sumptuous feast of post-Derridian brio-cum-angst silently like a shtetl of schmatte-clad yentas.

Lol, 10/10! :biggrin:

Reminiscent of ancient times when Rolling Stone was still relevant (40 years ago now) and I still read it and many of the fevered, SO SERIOUS, hyper-literate album reviews had lebenty-leben times more craft and substance to them than the monosyllabic psychedelic grunt sessions they were reviewing.

It always made me wonder, "Had these pretentious, Soho loft encapsulated shut-ins listened to the same platter of useless vinyl I had?" and "Were they in on their own joke, or what?"

But back to this video. I consider it deeply transformative.

I know I will never look at spaghettios in quite the same light ever again. D:
 
I wish Henry Rollins had been there. He'd have sent them all home crying.

As for someone earlier suggesting you watch GG Alin (for the pure vulgarity factor), I say don't watch....please, just trust me. I saw a black man watch it once while he was tripping acid in a room full of wanna be skin heads that are all in a death metal band together (everyone is friends, just giving a visual on the absurdity of how the situation looked if one walked in as a stranger and witnessed this). It was both the funniest and scariest thing I'd ever seen (the guys reaction) and I'm fairly certain it left him a changed man, and not for the better.
 
I grew up near California Institute of the Arts in Santa Clarita, CA. I've met and attended performances by many people just like this young woman. Their parents were paying huge tuition fees so they could shit in a cup, endlessly debate the existence of said turd, mix the turd with paint and splash it on an empty box of Vagisil, and call it art.

And, as so aptly displayed by the "artist" in the video, most of them didn't even have the life skills to use a manual can opener.
 
From: Know your meme

In case you are wondering what is realy going on in the video here is a narative:

  • The video starts out with Stolz using a manual can opener to open a can of clearly expired SpaghetiO’s. It takes her two minutes to do so because she has trouble using the can opener.
  • She pours the SpaghettiO’s into a pan and adds water.
  • Stolz then recites a nihilistic poem:
“Everything is shit. We apply meaning, value, and worth to the shit surrounding us. We live by this meaning and by our words. We live by worth and apply value, but everything is shit.”

  • She mutters her poem backwards in monosyllabic form while rubbing the old black SpaghettiO’s onto her shirt.
  • Stolz cuts open her denim leggings and puts her dirty fingers into her vagina, expelling vaginal discharge.
  • As the camera turns away, Stolz urinates into the empty can of SpaghettiO’s sitting on a platform.
  • Stolz takes off her shirt with her bloody and dirty hands, wipes up the mess, and exits the room.
  • The audience applauds.
Fucking Can Opener, how do they work?

I can now say I've seen something more disturbing than 2G1C, BME PO, and everything else I've seen on the net combined....
 
And this is a perfect example of why I think most modern art is dogshit. Comparing this to a rembrandt or a monet is bullshit and calling it "art" is a farce. All I saw was a grown up child playing with her food and then not making it to the bathroom in time to piss.

I agree. I have not watched it, but the comments gave me enough visuals to go on D: .
If this is hip, then let me be boring in ignorance...

In the past i used to help creative artists out with electronics and mechanics. Some even got a winner price and an article in the local newspapers and they where creative in a way, just not able to realize the ideas they had. But there walk also a lot of loonies out there among those artists. I once got a woman angry because i mentioned that i was in the storage room seeing all these cardboard boxes. She got angry because it was her artwork and she tried to symbolize something even i with my imagination could not grasp. And no, she was not hot enough either to lie that i understood what she meant.

Another real life example :
The artists i helped at the time, complained that the artist college local ping pong table had been stolen. It ended up during an art opening in someones artwork, broken into pieces.
 
The fact that they claim this was a "performance" as if it was some sort of art should indicate the level of bran damage these people must have.

yeah, it is comparable with a gonzo nude picture and stylish black and white pictures of nude women while being lit in the wild forest by a full moon only. Just enough to tickle you without having the feeling your watching an instruction video for gynecologists.

no shit right?
 
You know how currently schools teach about the great performance art from thousands of years ago, Greece, that type of thing.

God, the shit we consider performance art these days. Do you think they'll be talking about this "art" (makes me want to vomit saying that) in 4000AD?

Nope. It'll be like that chart of scientific advancements where the dark ages killed all science except it will be a complete lack of art for the last couple hundred years.
 
What I get from this, is that there exists a girl who is either too stupid or too weak to operate a can opener properly.

nihilists... fuck me. i mean, say what you will about the tenets of national socialism, dude, at least it's an ethos.

There's no way to sugar-coat the bran damage that cereal murderers commit. It's because they lack the milk of human kindness.
