Re: [microsound] death of monoculture



Culture would be nothing without its individuals, individuals would be nothing without culture. You can't separate the trees from the forest, nor vice versa.

How could there be a culture that promotes individuality? Isn't
culture precisely the realm of shared experience that defines groups
of people as objectively distinct societies?

Not only that, but language and artistic practice depend on a shared
context for their comprehensibility (though in its broadest sense, for
non-semantic artistic forms that shared context might only be the fact
of being biologically human itself).
