According to wiki, angst is used in the english language to describe an "intense feeling of strife." If we look at the definition of strife, we find is to mean: "Heated, often violent dissension; bitter conflict." The conflict going on is a battle between you and the tumultuous sight, whereas you are fighting it to stfu because it is way too loud and bright and it is causing you much anxiety.
Point achieved, but you've got to understand that if you want people to have time to process your work then it can not be ear+eye rape... lol eye rape. There are like 35 ear rapes sites a day this doesn't pass as groundbreaking. I spent 3 hours on my last image and it got auto-1 by numerous people due to slight noise redux noises coming from it.
Most art up until the later 1800s was made for the purpose of imitating reality as closely as possible. Without context, 90% of that classical art is "crappy" versions of photographs. In this way, the time at which it was made (the audience) is the biggest contextual element to the piece. This is similar for almost all art. I could take a picture, and use 2 filters in Adobe and get the same result.
Your reaction to a lot of these old YTMND is similar to looking at the Mona Lisa and saying that it's just a blurry photo. Not even in the fact that these YTMNDs are art - but just in the fact that they were designed for a different audience with a different set of expectations. Just for the record, I'm not doing like background checks on you - the way I saw your votes was watching SPY waiting for your replies.
ah, i see your point, and it's a mighty good one too, but you must realize that even for the time they were made, I still did not find the sites to be quite creative. I did not just downvote them a half hour ago; it was at least a few months or so. If i changed my vote for some reason i'm sorry I cannot remember why, but i can assure you that I did not hold their value up to the standards of how "well varnished" and "creative" sites were back then vs now.
