I suppose just about anything could be passed off as art, although when my wife found porn on my computer years ago, hard as I tried, I could not convince her it was art. In my desperation, I was forced to resort to my back up plan and blame my son-it worked.
I don't really know how I feel about this. If the typewriter had already been destroyed in a fire or something, I could understand keeping it around as art but to destroy a piece of history and marvelous worksmanship may just as well enrage me. I believe there is a special place in the afterlife for people that do things like this, They would be in the same level of hellish torment and people who hurt children or puppies, or remove the keys of old typewriters and sell them as jewelry.
