I was spending time at one of my geek magazine sites and saw the headline "Exploding Car Exhibit". I thought to myself oh cool they made an art exhibit out of an exploding car. Well, I ended up being disappointed.

What do you guys think? Is this art?

Maybe the crappy video doesn't do it justice but to me it looks more like a bunch of floating cars with flashing LED lights.

Well it's in the Guggenheim so it must be art.

I dunno about art but it looks time consuming if that counts for anything. :::shrug::: Different folks, different strokes.

Maybe the "artists" have created here an ironic twist on the subculture of folks who live for pimpin' out their rides. The cars are danglin' on a kind of massive mobile and coming to earth from the heavens. Pimped out rides maybe represent the new golden calfs of society. Dunno.
