Why Culture Has Come to a Standstill(nytimes.com) |
There are some limited places where culture has stopped because these places have made poor decisions.
Russia for example won't be producing much culture for the next century. Japan/Korea are near their end, they likely won't choose to recover.
New york city? Oh ya, collapse happening now. Culture probably not going to go well for them. Probably pretty upsetting for them to have fallen so far already and while they know they did it to themselves.
New York despite all its flaws (or probably because of them) seems to actually be the producer of the most cutting edge art in the US, but it doesn’t amount to all that much.
I’m also not sure about the Russia point. War and censorship is not new for Russia.
