The Spirit of Artistic Entrepreneurship

We want Beethoven and Hip Hop in the same class. We want to marry the timeless truths to cutting-edge technologies. The digital revolutions are decentralizing production and distribution, and artistic entrepreneurs are getting a chance to live their dreams on a larger stage. Instead of dropping tens of thousands on film schools, students can purchase Aristotle's Poetics, an HD Camera, and an editing system for a couple grand. They can learn the art of storytelling by apprenticing themselves to the Great Books and Classics with a vist to the bookstore, and to cutting-edge directors with a subscription to netflix. They are realzing that the best investment is not this mutual fund nor that mutual fund which may go up and may go down, but the here and now. Their best investment is themselves--their spirits and souls which contain infinite wealth that cannot always be counted down in dollars from the mint. The US Constitution gives them 100% equity in their dreams and creations, and the technological revolutions are manifesting this spirit as never before. So rock on and rock out. We're playing for keeps on the frontiers of this renaissance.
