That is a vacuum you have created.

If the artist tells 2 people to shove it, or 10, or 100, what then.

At what point will the audience superseed the artist.

At what point will the audience take responsibility for itself.

There's No problem? There is always a problem, unfortunatley as I see it the
problem is currently the audience and the lack of "sustainable statement" or
"critical assesment" present, or emanating from them.

If there is no audience then there is really nothing, aural masterbation maybe,
but getting yourself off is only fun for so long.
