Is Laser Cat the digital art sensation of 2014 or a joke?

It's inflatable, it feeds on art, and its eyes beam images on to a world where technology rules. Or so its creators claim. But surely there's a better artistic response to a tech-savvy century?

Why did the tech-age sitcom The IT Crowd end? I've no idea, but I like to think it had something to do with the speed of change in the 21st century. No sooner had Graham Linehan's scripts nailed one phase of the internet than suddenly they were out of date, as a whole new set of memes took over the asylum. Today, this recent comedy programme already looks quaint. You mean people used to use "laptops"?

The world is changing too fast for comedy. Is it also changing too fast for art?
