Virtuoso phallus shredding
I have come across so-called shreds – live videos of famous guitar players with the soundtrack replaced – only fairly recently, realising they have made the rounds already since 2008, but I keep laughing everytime I look at them again. These genius bits of parody have been expertly realised by
Santeri Ojala from Tampere, Finland (Finland being, as we know, also home of the annual world championships of air guitar).
The big question for me is: what would be the art world equivalent to this? It’s hard to imagine since the art world is full of spoof parodies of artworks to start with.
Still, I wouldn’t mind someone having a go at the soundtrack of, say, a Bill Viola video.
