“Under existing dominant society, which produces the miserable pseudo-games of non-participation, a true artistic activity … appears in the form of scandal. The existing framework cannot subdue the new human force that is increasing day by day alongside the irresistible development of technology and the dissatisfaction of its possible uses in our senseless social life. At a higher stage, everyone will become an artist, i.e., inseparably a producer-consumer of total culture creation.”
