Seriously, no it doesn't mean that it can't be artistic if it implements some old school method. I can be just artistic because well it looks artistic.
While you can do that kind of iChatting, you aren't part of the 125th Anniversary of the Brooklyn Bridge, nor are drumming up any media write ups about your iChatting.

Telectroscope to London Unveiled at Brooklyn Bridge
Gothamist.com
The festivities commemorating the 125th birthday of the Brooklyn Bridge got underway full swing today with the unveiling of the mysterious Telectroscope at the Fulton Ferry Landing, just south of the bridge at 1 Water Street. The installation's creator, Paul St George, claims to have just completed a forgotten tunnel connecting New York to London and, using giant parabolic mirrors, has reconstructed a Victorian-era optical device enabling people on either end of the tube to wave at each other.
Presented by the Artichoke art collective, who built the massive ambulatory “Sultan’s Elephant” in London two years ago, the Telectroscope will be open for gawkers 24/7 until June 15th. Attendants on hand supply visitors with dry-erase boards to write messages for the Londoners on the other side, at Tower Bridge. It's just frustrating that with the dollar so low, they can't toss a few pounds though the tunnel.

Really, it is simply called style. You know like a Steampunk Mac is all kinds of style.
