| meh. | ||||||
| hehe, needs a better sound edit....also (space related) spam http://onwardandupward.ytmnd.com/ | ||||||
| ^ If anything I should let it play longer, for those who've never heard it before, but meh...fade out. Just buy "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised" and listen to it on yr hi-fi stereo component system. | ||||||
| I swear I just saw this on youtube | ||||||
| Also, stolen! | ||||||
| No way! We've landed on the moon! | ||||||
| Do people need me to define the word "recontextualize" for them? Art theivery is fine. Theivery is lame. (Oh my god, I've become inkdrinker) | ||||||
| whitey on da win! | ||||||
| THE f*ckING MOON. JESUS H CHRIST IN A CHICKEN BASKET | ||||||
| Art theivery is in the eye of the beholder as much as art is especially when it's subtle. Like sayyyy taking a popular internet video then linking it to a classic ytmnd through slight homages in the sound and site design. Which is why I didn't 1 this, because like most good sites this isn't "stolen. cited, but stolen." | ||||||
| Needs more NEDM. | ||||||
| Wobbles, you are trying to call me a hypocrite but are missing the point. I made a joke (a political one at that) out of a very reverent ytmnd (that one is stolen but cited, from NASA). Mine is a shift in context...a sample that has been recontextualized by a second sample. Your Pong site is simply a change in venue. Correct? | ||||||
| Incorrect, or at least I would like to thinks so (granted I'm biased). I think the joke of the Human Pong page is made by contextualizing it with a classic original ytmnd tie.ytmnd.com. Tie is a page which shows the futility of gameplaying, and a mentality of winners vs. losers competition. Perticularly, this is seen in the selection of Mad World as the background music, the infinate looping nature of the gif and also of the highly ironic use of keyword abuse to boost page views. | ||||||
| Guillaume Reymond effort to recreate the game using people challenges that conception of game playing in a very important way, by displaying the game as a communal and cultural activity, not merely a desolate waste. By juxtaposing the two clips (By adding Mad World below the sound effects, and by making sure the image looped instead of concluding like Reymond's original video does, the dual nature of Pong and, by extention, competition is more fully explored then either piece does alone. | ||||||
| I might be the only person who would or did notice that, but I generally create pages for only two reasons: My personal enjoyment or because someone else's art deserves a larger audience. Like you said, this was at least partially a change of venue to increase the audience, but I found the point-counterpoint nature of the site enjoyable enough for me. | ||||||
| that happened to me once. | ||||||
| NEEDS NEDM......just kidding. I lawl'd @ it. | ||||||
| Hoax,lol | ||||||
| KILL WHITEY | ||||||
| Quite frankly .... brilliant! | ||||||

| I dunno what your talkin' about. | ||||||
| 5 FOR GIL SCOTT-HERON. | ||||||
| ... | ||||||
| ...her face and arms begin to swell... | ||||||
| fake. | ||||||
| Best downvote ever. Also, I wish I knew what the hell is wrong that makes mp3s on YTMND f*cked up on this computer. I assume that's "Whitey on the Moon," right? On my end, it's garbled gibberish. | ||||||
| LOL LOOK AT ITHAS "JYUJWIL: 19"69" LOLADLOZLOALKIOKLAK ITS FUNY FU Z LKLLKALKDOKWLJMKWJwererer | ||||||

| I think the conversation between gr33nscr33n and Wobbles is fascinating and is more than enough to earn this 5. | ||||||
| A walk to remember... | ||||||
| Ya know, they sent a chimp up there first. | ||||||
