Video art is an interesting art form. It's odd to see how seeming mistakes can create unique and creative art. Effects like visually going out of focus and messing with sound quality can produce these works of art. Video art is like watching a moving painting and interpreting what you see for yourself. Distortions are a commodity in art and we definitely have seen many amazing examples of this during the last few days of class.
I found the videos we watched of "The Residents" to be particularly interesting and amusing. Each song and video seemed to have very powerful statements and messages tied to them. It was definitely experimental music and video. They remind me slightly of the band "Gorillas" and how they are not about their own individual images, but more about the music and message they are sending. True artists.
