There is no more exhilarating time to be an artist than right now. It is not the changing world that has brought us to impasse—quite the opposite, the world is only becoming more connected and beautiful—but instead a regressive post-globalist cultural force bent on reducing a complex world into a coherent and controllable form. To reduce the present to a past. Like using the internet as a filing cabinet. Like thinking an enclave can be carved out from nature. Like letting the AI pattern your thought and speech until you think it all "makes sense".
Art needs a clearpill era, an era of acceleration, a return to the flow, a turn back to the unknown and unknowable, to Heaven, to the world and, above all, to be driven away from reflections of the self!!!!
