FYI if you don't know what 4'33 is.
I'll post the chart(is it called that in english) of how it goes.

If you don't get it now, I'll help you out some more.
4'33 is a conceptional work of art by famous composer John Cage. It's 4 minutes and 33 seconds long, and the entire orchestra is silent during this time. You sometimes hear stage noises and what appear to be some tuning thingaling.
That's all I can remember.
that was really dumb, how is silence a work of art?

It was originally written by John Cage. The song was meant to made the audience that were listening listen to the background sounds that were happening in the audience and outside that they wouldn't regularly hear if he was actually playing. It actually got quite a good response but pissed some people off.
Haha, clever.
What's clever about it?
You don't pay fucking money to listen to someone sneezing and someone else across the room struggling with a bag of minstrels for christsake.

:raise:. This definitely goes off the spectrum for pretentious artists faking like mad. This isn't art, this is a joke. People sometimes blur the line between doing something out of the ordinary to make a statement and bullshit, but this broke the bullshit meter and made a mess all over the crowd.
Also, no wonder this guy got a way with all this bullshit, his parents were famous.
