I totally caught the reference!

Have you ever attended a live performance of 4'33"? I had no idea what was coming, so needless to say, it was an experience.

Actually, I thought a black rectangle would make the monitor act like a black mirror, letting you see yourself, your surroundings, and your icons,
but it doesn't work like that.

*dirtyword* anti-glare technology!!

Isn't 4'33" the name of a "song" by John Cage, which is 4 minutes and 33 seconds of complete silence? It would explain why this picture is nothing but complete blackness.

absolutely correct!!
I should expand the description.
Actually, USING it as wallpaper is more disturbing than I thought.
Now my icons look lonely!
