artists are dependent creatures, by definition.

we are to exist in a culture of dependency, or not exist at all.

but, concepts of dependency are only meaningful in the context of currency, and, ultimately, in the context of property; "dependency" has no meaning when property is placed in common, as we are all dependant upon each other - which is true, anyways, but flatly denied by capitalism. this is what property is all about: the delusional denial of our irresolvable interdependence. and, doing away with this denial is what socialism is really all about.
