Why is music objectively the best art form?

Why is music objectively the best art form?
The official rankings are:

Music > Literature > Vidya > Film > TV

What about visual arts?

>Vidya > Film
Opinion Discarded

Hmm that might go in front of vidya.

Video Games (most enjoyment) > Music > TV + Film > Literature (least enjoyment)

What an utter pleb

You are a sad sad little man.

Art is not about enjoyment. It is about making you think and developing yourself as a human being

absolute kekers in my knickers, only if you're 11

nah it's
Film>music>tv>literature>vidya

you haven't watched good kino if u think music is better especially how accessible it is to understand music

if we are factoring in difficulty level move literature ahead of tv

You mean at the fixed idea of what a "human being" is?

Music > Literature > Vidya > TV > Film

>video games
>top

The artform is still in it's infancy, you dip

Art is one thing that music is a part of, no piece is better than the other

Literature > Music > Film > Video Games > TV

objectively

It's superior to literature in that it can circumvent educational shortcomings and language barriers to hit you right in the heart, whereas lit is more dependent on your understanding of the content.

We're talking generally here.

Of course to the untrained ear, the opposite would be said of atonality, dissonance, and noise.

>literature above music
Wew

No that's not right you pseud

No actually, it is.

Listening is a passive activity. Reading for comprehension is highly active.

videogames are fun but that shit aint art.

How's middleschool treating you?

Film > Music > Literature > Television > vidya

holy fucking shit dude

Film > Lit > Music >>> TV >>>>>>>> Vidya

Objective patrician ranking coming through
literature > music > film > vidya > TV

The correct ranking is obviously

Literature > Music > Film > Vidya > TV

1. Music
2. Architecture
3. Painting, sculpture
4. Poetry, literature
5. Film
6. Photography
7. Video games

Anybody who thinks music is the best is an under 18 year old who can't finish a book or film unless it's capeshit or harry potter

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS TIERS

EXCLUDING FASHION AND CULINARY THAT ARE AT A SEPARATED WORSE TIERS

It's actually literature > film > music > TV > vidya

Kid A and Taxi Driver are known for their themes on Loneliness, Isolation, Anxiety at the face of your perception on modern times

Which platform did a better job, and will always do a better job?

Film.

A movie will always mean more.

Literature>Visual arts>Music>Film>TV Shows=Video games

I choose to put Literature first as it can not only convey almost everything from the other art forms, but it can also be easily altered in one's mind, perfecting something for an individual which the author might have not even realised.

Visual arts I've put second as they can evoke as much thought as a film, book or a whole album in seconds or minutes, altough not always or not as wide of a topic, but things like Duchamp's Fountain always make me feel interested and amazed.
For the example I choose the Fountain on purpose, as first when I've heard of it, I was very vocal about it being garbage, waste of anyones time and of course "How can that be considered art!?" After two weeks when I've almost forgot about it, I've realised that the whole movement of Ready Made was to shock and or enrage, and it has accomplished that fantastically.

Music I've put third, because again, if it's supposed to convey scenery, story, and so on, one can alter it to his likings, making the experience even better.

Film is on the fourth place as technically it always comes from a form of literature, but not always it expresses the same concept, feelings or point.

TV Shows I've put fifth as they're made to be only for the consumption itself and lack any kind of after-thought, but again that probably doesn't apply to every show and I might be wrong here. I believe that there is no TV show that couldn't have it's content made into one film, or maybe a trilogy, instead of eight+ episodes or multiple seasons. The more episodes people watch, the more dosh, milking one idea for more than it's worth.

cont. even thought nobody probably cares.

Music>Film + TV>Vidya>>>>>>>Literature

>Film > Music
What kind of shit music do you listen to?
Even the best film is way inferior to most classical music.

I'm not even sure why you put Video Games in these ratings though, they might be good and fun, but they're not art. I would say there is a few exceptions though, when people bring up this discussion, I like to talk about Silent Hill 2. The game has fantastic atmosphere, has the feeling of survival horror enhanced by providing the player with bad controls - a fantastic break of the fourth wall, nice story and multiple branches of it covering different characters, very unsettling design and a fantastic soundtrack. Overall a great experience combining all of the previously mentioned, so in some sense it is art. There isn't many similar games though, so considering the whole genre art is completely out of the question.

Top kek stop now before you embarrass yourself too hard. What are you 16 years old?

music > literature > tv > film > vidya

>EXCLUDING FASHION AND CULINARY THAT ARE AT A SEPARATED WORSE TIERS

Why is food art at a separated tier? just because eating unhealthy food is bad and so the art type itself limit the freedom the artist will have?

Music = Literature > Photography > Film >>> TV

There is no objectively best art form, some people are more moved by music, others by literature or movies etc.

don't kid yourself you just namedrop classical music to seem like you know anything.

Film and literature are superior to music it's not even funny

It's so fucking EASY TRICKING PEOPLE INTO HAVING "GOOD" taste in music. its laughable
Sup Forums is prime example of people just copying shit from somebodys chart and listing them off as proof they know music.

don't play yourself

lit > film ≥ music > vidya > tv

I'd say Film>TV just because of TVs potential as an art form (see Sopranos, Six Feet Under, The Wire)

>citizen kane is superior to the mass in b minor
you are a disgusting pleb

video game > sculpture > theater > movie > painting > music > literature

Movies are the worst. Most.

>some stupid phrases
>same stupid plots
>sometimes special effects
>lame photography

That's all. Movies aren't art. They're sick recording of ordinary people.

I think ">" means greater than, not less than

This

Hello the USA

lmao and music is better right?
AHHHHHHHHH FRANKIE SINATRA

don't forget movies always make 50x the money than music

film>music

literature > theater > sculpture > video game > movie > painting > music = photography

Spiderland and The perks of being a wallfower both deal with teenage anxiety and lonliness, which one do you think did a better job?

fuck your arbitrary comparrisons

Music > TV > Vidya > Film > Literature

>ranking art forms
If you do this, you're a faggot.

music = literature = video games = film = television = art

perks did it better

What kind of shit films do you watch? Cinema is far more stimulating than music, and simply by its nature is able to approach a much broader scope of ideas, from the abstract to the concrete, in relation to music. also it's funny you point to classical when trying to make a case for something better than film, when jazz is clearly the superior musical form.

The beauty of film is that it is still in its infancy, yet it is already reaching levels of experimentation, ambition, and influence rivaling those of music.

No classical work could rival masterpieces like Mirror, Andrei Rublev, La Jetee, Taxi Driver, The Passion of Joan of Arc, The Master, 2001: A Space Odyssey, etc.. Just compare the volumes of scholarly works regarding music and cinema, cinema offers a far more expansive range of tools, themes, and ideas to express compared to music. I quite enjoy and study both, but cinema is indubitably the superior art form.

>people who unironically consider vidyashit an artform exist and post on this board

Fucking end yourselfs you absolutely disgusting plebian subhuman scum
That is ofc, if you arent baiting, which i hope you are, and if you're not, please kys and stop wasting oxygen.

Music>Literature>Movie>>>>>Vidya>TV

pleb

dude nice

Forgot to say that TV isn't even an art form

Idiot
perks is literature turned into film
spiderland is just some shitty noise rock that led up to one their members attempting suicide because his wife dumped him for a rich guy

The comparison wasn't arbitrary though, there are very concrete parallels between Kid A and Taxi Driver. Both are widely held in high esteem by critics of both art forms. Both are ambitious in scope, and utilize advanced techniques in their execution (though Taxi Driver employs a far more sophisticated range)

The link between Spiderland and Perks of Being a Wallflower is more tenuous, as one is highly regarded while the other is not, and the themes in Spiderland take a decidedly far darker and nihilistic turn as opposed to those explored in the markedly unambitious Perks of Being a Wallflower. Spiderland also utilizes advanced musical elements, whereas Perks uses fairly straightforward and basic filmmaking techniques.

don aman is the best portrayal of party anxiety in any medium

also if you think that's noise rock you literally don't know shit about music

>I've never explored baroque and romantic music

Objectively there all pretty equal except for vidya so here's my subjective ranking of them.

Film>Music>Literature>Vidya>TV

>only argument is cherrypicking
*laughing emoji*

this is the most accurate in this thread

>I've never explored French New Wave, Italian Neorealist, Soviet, or Hollywood Classical cinema

I don't get why you guys keep putting film so low.
Film is the most complete of all arts.
It contains imagery and in some cases, if it's animated, it has painting/drawing, it has acting, it has a story(literature, even if you don't read it, it's basically read to you), most have a soundtrack(music that will go with the action in the movie). In one art, it has various arts in it. The only problem is that while Film is the most complete, it's also the hardest to do well. Sure anyone with some experience, and money can do a Michael Bay, but only true talented people with vision and passion can make a Kubrick.
Music comes second, and fuck the rest.

Vidya is a relatively new art form, you guys need to give it a break. It's still in its Stone Age.

>art form
hahahahaha

It's because most of the kids here are 16 year olds who haven't actually seen any hallmark cinema, but heard Citizen Kane was boring so cinema as a whole must be shit.

That's such a generalisation.

BTFO

I wish Sup Forums wasn't so shit

Music > Film > Books > rest

>TRIGGERED.jpg

>Implying there isn't a HUGE difference between active and passive listening

Passive listening is what people who listen to Top 40 radio and use music exclusively as background noise (most people) do.

Active listening is what people with trained ears/musicians/people who listen to music as a hobby do and I argue it is just as intensive mentally if not more than reading comprehension.

In short, your statement literally could not have been more incorrect and ill-informed.

muisc=lit>film>vidya>>>>>tv

Music is the purest form of human expression. It is some sort of proto-language, providing the most direct access to the human condition.

>VIDYA ABOVE FILM
>VIDYA ABOVE ANYTHING
STOP POSTING YOU WASTE OF SPACE

You have no place to say that with such a shitty reaction image. Kys
Weeaboo genocide now.

...

Perks is one of the most cringy, corny, predictable, infuriatingly bad films I've ever watched.

Porn is better in terms of enjoyment than vidya.
So in your terms, porn is the best art form.

If you disagree with the fact that porn is best in terms of enjoyment bring on the (You)s

Historically:
Music>Literature>Visual Arts>Film>Vidya

Potentially:
Vidya>Film>Music>Literature>Visual Arts

By the way, TV and Film are the same artform.

>Vidya > Film

...

Heroin is the purest art form.

8/10 bait now post this on Sup Forums

Music = literature = film > TV
Vidya is not art, nor should it attempt to be

objective truth

Borges: "...Generalizing from the preceding case, we could infer that all forms have their virtue in themselves and not in any conjectural “content.” This would concord with the thesis of Benedetto Croce; already Pater in 1877 had affirmed that all arts aspire to the state of music, which is pure form. Music, states of happiness, mythology, faces belabored by time, certain twilights and certain places try to tell us something, or have said something we should not have missed, or are about to say something; this imminence of a revelation which does not occur is, perhaps, the aesthetic phenomenon."

music and literature are what I take most seriously, I think precisely because the visual element is not provided to you. the slogan is "humans are visual creatures"; maybe the imagination or some deeper faculty is forced to be more involved. in a movie, you see a particular man with particular features in a particular place, doing particular things, and there's something disappointing or trivial about it (though I have seen a couple that feel "universal", or especially complete, and that I can watch many times). In a book, things are less explicit, and often it could be any man. In music, it's even less clear what exactly "is happening", and that's what I like. It's abstract (but also physical and immediate).

interestingly, characterizing music as "pure form" (I'm not totally sure what that means, but I like it), allows a comparison with mathematics, which is also concerned with form as an end unto itself (eg. the idea of a group, not any particular examples of content like rotational symmetries or modular arithmetic)

>video games
>top
That art form isn't even 50 years old, it's not good yet. Enjoyment is subjective, so it by default can't be an objective measuring system. also, lit at the bottom lol. what are you, 12?

Art is completely subjective, objectively measuring it is dumb. I will anyways though

Spirituality > Painting/Drawing > Music > Lit > Culinary > Film/TV > Fashion

Pretty much ranked them in order of historical importance throughout human history.
