Two gigantic white canvases stand somewhere in the woods. Two teams of impressionists approach, slowly. Their stealthy crawl is burdened by a heavy load: each carry an arsenal of paint guns and a broad palette of ammunition.

Then, all hell breaks loose.

When the smoke clears, a panel of eminent art-critics evaluates who has created the best Seurat-esque painting.

       And there I was, thinking this would have something to do with Powerpoint. How silly of me.

       Picture Jack Nicholson as the Joker (Batman 1989) and his gang doing this.

       I read this as Powerpoint Nihilism.

       they could have something like a giant ink-jet printer mounted on a truck, which would create an image on any surface by firing paint bulelts in just the right spot. Like uber-high-tech graffiti.
