@mattcrotts An optimistic future has robots as the friends and helpers of man. Helpful Pinnochios who want to be good boys. That’s a Christian AI future.
@one_Punchy @mattcrotts Hobbit Art is intellectually interesting because the Hobbit is trying to solve a visual/creative storytelling problem, often unfettered by any notion of art theory.
@one_Punchy @mattcrotts I think the academy made “intellectually interesting” the soul of art because that definition benefits the intellectual class. The intellectual qualities of something like the Virgin on the Rocks isn’t the whole substance of the painting, but it is present in the painting.
@mattcrotts @one_Punchy I suppose the economic angle is the printing press angle. If I have a passable illustration machine, I don’t need passable illustrators anymore. If anything, the skillful illustrators are going to get richer. Or the guys too weird to imitate.
The recent Wednesday series illustrates what I think is going wrong. Wednesday as weird little girl in a weird little family works. Wednesday as “symbol of weird Goth girls everywhere” has become too self-referential. The writers consciously want her to be anti-normie.
It’s one of the single most disturbing things I’ve read because you keep expecting the “other shoe” to be that this is a cautionary tale about extremism, but the butts of the joke are the ordinary human beings she’s killing. The irony is “Ha ha, they had it coming.”
The earliest seasons of Simpsons, and maybe Family guy to a lesser extent, have parodies of fathers that are idiots, but good-natured. Over time, Homer becomes a pure idiot, and Peter becomes a random psycho. They lost the “goodness” that made the characters work.
