Resumo

Abstract: A shared culture of art practice has emerged around classical Hollywood films and interactive video games, an art practice that uses both of these dominant media as a type of “readymade." One critic has called contemporary video artists such as Cory Arcangel and Douglas Gordon the “ideal childrenof the children of Duchamp.” Reformulating well known films, video games, and television broadcasts, these artists provide a way of customizing industrially produced pleasures, reconfiguring in a personal and illuminating way the objects of audio-visual culture.
