https://substack.com/@felixmcnamara/note/p-172545366?r=u291h.. This stack speaks my miniature mind vis-a-vis your subject. Every bofy evvrey person we understood in 1996 to be participating in our present was an artist of fine art bent. Except for Stewart Brand who said all the right things and stayed two steps ahead of being coopted by his own money prospects. My idea is that it is easier to throw whole countries to the dogs if they donot produce heartbreaking works of art. Then and there it seems to me our onlyresponsibilty to produce. We already know it can be received, the artist is the first person pleased with the artifice. For instance how about bossterism as an ism? We can throw it all away,. As you say many times we have nothing not one Stewart Brand to be proud of. If the people cannot see for example the emptiness of Richard Florida,. Let them die by chocolate.
