Are viruses art?

How did you even know? I guess you must browse it? It was just the first google result btw.

Leave racism alone. For the good of humanity.

I'm pretty sure even the biggest brainlet gets that modern (((art))) is money laundering at this point yeah?

OP who are we to say what is and is-not arts?

if your "art" is so simple and banal in execution that I could produce an identical work with zero prerequisite skills, it's not fucking art.

There's no such thing as art, you slope-faced fucktard.

BSD and redpilled.

Yeah, I'll be real with you fren, a sanatorium of a laptop is not art.

It depends on the intent of the programmer who wrote the virus. I'll refer to the Oxford Dictionary definition of "art":

"The expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power."

So if the virus was created to show off or cause lulz, yeah you could say it's art. If it was created primarily for utilitarian purposes, then no. The analogy would be a decorative blade produced for cultural value being art but the knife I used to stab you simply being a weapon.

Because I Binged the title

No, we need monarchies

then what?

STEM mongoloids will never understand contemporary art

Humans throughout all of time save the past 60 or so years wouldnt get this "art".

Depends on the virus I guess?
I could imagine that some of the early viruses like the Morris worm original disk would be worth a ton.

poor fags will never understand how rich people buy art for the sole purpose of holding assets. do enough mental gymnastics for me to make that price tag go up pls and thanks

Not with that attitude!

Money laundering.

>just because you can
>implying most art these days isn't a money laundering scheme

Compared with all previous generations of humans you are spending a huge amount of money on useless garbage. Compared with anyone living from 10000 bc to 1950 ad you have an infinite amount of luxury.

Imagine buying that for 1.3 million bucks and installing Gentoo on it for the lulz.

exactly

Rich people say this shit is art as a powe move, similar to how a dog will shit all over a yard and pee on the trees to claim ownership of territory. You do not understand this art, you contort your mind so that it seemingly makes sense, but it doesn't and it isn't supposed to. You are a bitch.

yos.

But how would this "asset" hold value? it's just a laptop with viruses. I can make it easily and you won't be able to tell a difference. Shouldn't art be unique in some way?

This piece of art would be worth less with a usb stick of Norton put inside of it

not anymore. basically they pay some art degree major cuck to talk some bullshit about how this is deep and nuanced art, and no one cant argue back because you will be looked down so everyone pretends to see some deeper meaning in it. price inflates and some rich dude launders some money, another one gets tax cuts for donating art, and someone else makes money by showing off gargabe to the world

Art is just something that makes you feel (or think) something, when you look at it.
I have a picture on the wall, that looks basically like a gradient, but my gf painted it based on a pic of the sky during a stormy sunset, when we were on vacation. To me, it takes me back in time to that spot, and that trip. But to others it's just a gradient.
So I'd say it's not even a prerequisite, that everyone should get a piece of art, or that you 'wouldn't need to explain it, if it's real art'.

Is this just another piece about degradation or whatever, like a rusty shell of a truck sitting in a field or something?

...

art is usually a single piece and something that is uniquely identifiable, i'm not even sure this would be possible to resell since its just a Samsung netbook with viruses on anyone can create the exact same thing if they find that model of laptop

It's viry.

Dunno. Is crime art? Is finding loopholes in the law art?

Money Laundering is the real art this days.

So I could give my grandmother a laptop and then sell it for over $1 million a week later?

>Are viruses art?
Well, its more about Collecting. People collect viruses, especially Companies, and thats probably why they seem to pay alot of Money for viruses they've never seen or ever heard of, especially if they may could trace it back to some sort of programming pattern which they already encountered in hope to find the holy grail of virus programming

When people spend that much on "art", they're not just buying the listed item.
