My Silence Is Original
Apparently, silence is avante-garde music. And it can be copyrighted. If it can be copyrighted, one musician (silence-ist?) can sue another over it. Or so it seems.
+ Big noises at odds over the sound of silence

My favorite example of laugh-out-loud ludicrous art is a piece by Yoko Ono that I heard at the awesome Tate Museum of Modern Art in London: about a minute of her coughing.
I would not be surprised if THAT was what broke up the Beatles...
