artsolete

The idea that all digital art is created with technology that will eventually become obsolete. When the technology that created the art reaches obsolescence, the art is free to become a master-work. When only the art remains, no more of the same art can be made in the same way because the technolgy no longer exists. Any art that was created to look like it would be an interpretation using newer technology, reinforcing the idea that all art is derivative.
The art that was created using Commodore 64 computer will soon become artsolete, because there are no longer artists using it, and there are no more Commodore 64 computers left.

Arthlete

Marching Band members; as they are involved in both arts and sports as marching on the field is equivalent to doing athletic sports. Being able to perform on the field carrying heavy instruments and playing good and challenging music while memorising the drills and keeping with their tempo AT THE SAME TIME, makes them eligible to be called an 'Artist' and 'Athlete'. Thus, by the combination of the word 'Art' and 'Athlete', there comes the word 'Arthlete'. Last but not least, the marching band is also a kind of sport.
