Pair with this complementary piece by W. David Marx:

He writes about incentives since the 1990s that have pushed artists to shy away from making bold aesthetic choices that might seem dated a few years later.

The result is more stability and a longer shelf-life for culture, but less experimentation and fewer ways for new styles to break out.
