@M4Gunner So this is your channel?
Also, you don't have to be a Marxist to be a surrealist... there is reasons why people were drawn to it, but most of there work was shit.

Orwell said this. he doesnt like dali

the soundcloud channel is mine ya

The Australian surrelist pointed out Dali was a lazt oil painter... I love that... sick burn.

*lazy

he is so not

dali achieved complete technical mastery through godbillions of hours of hard work

In the concept of using oil, yeah, he was.

i wanna see his argument. it may not be a traditional oil style, but it looks exactly how he wanted it in most cases im sure

He never took advantage of the medium and he used it like a pencil, tempora or other medium which didn't have the slow drying quality of oil.

thats what orwell is saying

I can make stickfigures exactly how I imagine

or how I want

thats prescriptivist as fucc

Dali was a clean surrealist. He came up with a concept and completed the work. Surrealism was about play.

his work is plenty playful

its much more palateable than many other surrealist artists who discredited him

iirc they were also annoyed he wouldnt join them in their various political leanings

:/

Surrealism wasn't political until the second maniphesto.

Which a lot rejected.

Why would an artist prescribe to an opinion rather than his own?

what's going on?

Breton said some s†††

but his work just aint as good

Breton was interesting, but the surrealist "movement" was like "grundge"... it was there before people tried to name it.

Ernst is a much better example, but he came from Dadaist stock.

I dont like the actual dadaist works that much because its just trolling

its funny and interesting but buying into it was just getting yourself trolled

That's what I liked about Dadaism.

yeah but would you pay money for a signed toilet

You mean post modernism?

Du-shamp or whatever?

pretty sure the r. mutt toilet was squarely in the realm of dadaists

Marcel Duchamp i think

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fountain_(Duchamp)

It's a bit more complicated than that, but yeah, it was inspired by the dadaist concepts. Like most things, the prelude to trolling and shitposting extended the liberties we take for granted.

gotta have some wierd games too

as far as local music goes most of the hard/abstract/electronics/noise scene is like aggressively political anarchist gendergays, so im kinda over it

i just feel like if i go to a show i cant talk how i normally would, although thats turning into everywhere lately

going to shows used to be about drinking beer and talking s†††
