npub1g0tuf634rz4suczwj7kgnecr6cyt0eu9xmp3sp0fku68mqehq4msp3tvm4 (npub1g0t…tvm4) Pierre Bourdieu has a good article on how fields of activity tend to become parodies of themselves as they become more self-referential; due to the process of participants rising as leaders in the field by accumulating the cultural capital of being an insider. I think that's what's happened to art, with the turn to the conceptual. And yes, any field that becomes self-referential does make it easier to produce content according to a formula, or an algorithm.
