Well that wasn't art. I think it qualified as kitsch though! :D Anyway well said Solo. ;)
Faust:
Programming is an art when done well.
In painting the artist takes pigments and arranges them on a canvas to form an idea. Note that it does NOT have to be aesthetically pleasing - in fact I think a lot of art that is ugly is better because it makes you think more. In programming the "artist" takes "pigments" (code lines) and arranges them to form a final work - just because it's functional does not stop it from being creative and artistic.
And to whoever it was that tried to prove arguments by quoting dictionaries:
1)definitions change from version to version
2)music doesn't seem to fit "neatly" into that definition either
3)dictionaries conform to a societies definition of a word, not the other way round

While we're at it, let's continue the Cheerleading, Sport of not, debate. And then for good measure, a Console Vs. PC one too. And for dessert, Religion Vs. Athiesm.
Monday night debate, ya'll.
