"The freedom to choose what is always the same" - T. Adorno (1944)
The internet. You can find everything out there. And everybody finds the same thing ... not much of anything really. I firmly believe that the 'freedom' (of choice) the internet promises is absolutely an illusion. There are so many splintered and fractioned groups and sub-genres of 'stuff' out there that no one has the time to look at even .001 percent of it. The mechanisms that are supposed to 'help' you filter it are all geared (whether they or you realize it or not) towards the one avenue that they (or you) feel is worthy or cool or good or whatever. Folks are more into their own 'one' thing than in any other time that I've been alive. It blows me away how 1-dimensional people's art experiences and choices are right now. It's like the 'craft' beer thing here in the states. Which is great, I love beer but now it's all just IPA. All anybody wants to drink or brew is an IPA ... and I don't really dig IPA. We had this great potential renaissance of decent brewing in the states and it's devolved (generally) into one f'ng type. 'The freedom to choose what is always the same'.
