I believe in creating "artistic value", even if it not "popular" with the buying public, we just need to find other means of financing what we do, because the absence of creation is not an option.

Being in person just adds an extra layer to it.

Though I wonder why we continue to place so much emphasis on showing up in person, to give a talk, or perform a piece. That is a very backward reaction to technological change, surely. Why don't artist's like us instead just monetize our own web sites, to promote and enjoy the costless duplication of our beloved works? Great read, thanks.
