I hope we can all agree that performing arts is still an art… sort of. But does THIS qualify? A recent Mirror article covered “artistic cycling” which reminds me of figure skating, on bikes! It’s an activity that seems to be somewhat popular in Asia. I wouldn’t call this a type of art per se, but you be the judge. The video below is very relevant, showing an artistic cycling performance from the tenth annual Asian Indoor Cycling Championship. Two guys, two bikes, and a lot of riding around. Cool? Yes. Artistic? I don’t think so…

Some pictures of indoor artistic cycling here:

Here’s another sculpture-looking thingie that one day appeared out of nowhere on my college campus. The plaque says it’s called “Orion”, whatever that means. I have no idea what it’s supposed to symbolize or or wtf it’s doing in the middle of campus. From where I stand, it just looks useless and stupid.

Our Verdict: Garbage

Yours???
