Ideas Welcome: Cybertronian Cultural Arts!

Soooooo of course this is Wing's fault. We are not shocked are we?

Since this topic is mostly going to be head canon, I thought we could get some idea sharing happening on what Cybertronian cultural arts might include.

There could be a wide range of things and not everything needs to apply universally. Some things could be region specific, limited to certain universes, or just something your character made up. This would explain why different characters may have never heard or seen certain things, allowing us as players to pick and choose. Likely the more popular ideas would be the most widespread arts/activities.

I thought it'd be cool to form a melting pot of ideas that players could then pull from in the game. I would love to see any and all suggestions! Let's Collaborate!

I also welcome any and all notable references to these things in canon so that we can use that as a basis. I'll try and gather them all together.

Cultural arts generally include: song, music, dance, theater, architecture, visual arts and literature, etc.

Oof, love all those ideas up there~

:|a "Painting" with electromagnetic energies/currents which are continually produced by some devices? Wouldn't be visible to us, but I'd think they could see it.

Song/music would probably have a greater range than we do, since they could probably produce sound in different wavelengths than we do... Maybe also different for various altmode-types, either by tradition or some other thing... Which could also vary by universe.
