Cory Arcangel: Super-Mario Clouds, 2002

From the point of my view, I would like to suggest that this game can be classified as an artwork. First of all, it cna be observed that the creator truely give some idea activitly. After surfering the key words of this work, the fact is that the Super-Mario Clouds was extracted and purified from a real video game named Super-Mario Adventure. What the different between these two works is that the origin one contains lots of charactors, and what's more, places the reaction to the main part of the work. On the contrarary, the later one is obviously more concise ans abstract, the creator amphysis one of the main elements from the game and make them in a peaceful order. I think this is the pure form of art which the artist abstracts the interesting element from the less aesthetic one, and the idea he might want to leave are the sweet memory of the childhood or just a large space for imagination.

    You've engaged consistently with all of the topics studied in the class and presented your views on them here, and some posts e.g. your post on video games is very thorough and detailed and presents evidence to support your viewpoint. Try to always do that, as when you don't, e.g. in the post above, your points are not made so convincingly
