Quote - Recently i accidently uncovered a cave with some ancient paintings of some rather ugly looking buffaloes on the wall together with an old withered clay plate that apparently was used by a bystander to engrave a conversation onto it; here a translation of what could be recovered from it into modern english:

Caveman 1: Nice buffalo you painted.
Caveman 2: Thanks, yours looks good, too; i was not aware you were part of the hunting party, though.
Caveman 1: You noticed correct, indeed i wasn't. I started painting my buffallo aready when you were still out there hunting it.
Caveman 2: That is not right, you are not allowed to paint a buffalo if you did not hunt one. The painting of a buffalo represents and expresses the amount of work required to hunt it. Wait! How did you even get the blood for it? You mentioned that you started painting while i was hunting it, so the buffalo was still alive at that time, so how did you get the blood?
Caveman 1: I didn't. I used rabbit blood.
Caveman 2: But that is impossible. You cannot paint a buffalo with rabbit blood. You can only paint a rabbit with rabbit blood. So your painting is not a buffalo, it is a rabbit! And for a rabbit there is very little resemblance, i must say. You did a very bad job here.
Caveman 1: I don't care. What counts is the result, and for the looks of it my painting is just as good as yours. Nobody will notice that it is not made of buffalo. In 5000 years or so, they will still enjoy these paintings, even when our own actions we did in order to create them are long forgotten.
Caveman 2: And this is where you are wrong. The art is in creating the image, not in the image itself. Hunting a buffalo takes years of learning and experience, if you had you done it yourself you would know that and see it the same way. Just everybody could kill a rabbit and use it's blood for painting.
Caveman 1: Erm, i did not actually kill the rabbit, i bartered it in exchange for an arrow head.
Caveman 2: ....

Unfortunately the rest of the clay plate is unreadable, but it appears the conversation got rather heated from that point on. Yet i think it is enough to bring up some important questions:
1-Which caveman is right? I have no idea, but i think both of them have very strong points.
2-How could CG art hold up in such an argument, would it matter if it was done with 3ds max or Poser?
3-Did those cavemen evolve at all?

 
LOL!!! I loved this! The indignation of caveman 2 was palpable! Did you make this  
up yourself? If so you are wonderfully talented with the gift of laughter. I guess  
we all paint with rabbits blood to some extent or another. It's just that poser artists  
admit it.
