Quite simply, the more sophisticated the world gets, the more success becomes a matter of knowing about, understanding, and utilizing what already exists over the determination of blind creation. To the contrary of our intuition and what we have been taught, the determination of creativity is often just a set of blinders. Everything has been pursued, you cannot hope to be terribly original unless you stand on the shoulders of giants.
Such a trend is irreversible; so, what are the long-term implications? What happens when the world is a post-consumer economy? How do we finance the decades that lead up to each of our few moments of singular contribution to humanity?
