The Arts are leading the new vanguard of humanity

They need to be rewarded.

The days of jobs for all humans are coming to an end, at long last.

Thanks to all humans who devoted our lives to that end to date, this is where we are.

Humanity might seem to be on the edge of retiring into some state of reduced value, the bulk of us no longer contributing our weight, no longer earning a living.

But that isn’t true at all.

Actually, we are on the threshold of a new phase of value generation, one which will generate far more value for humanity than seen before, more than we can ever imagine individually.

The age of creation.

Leading the field in this, are those who already spend their lives creating.

The artists, musicians, and performers in life.

Now, we must follow their lead, learning how to create.

Creating is something we all do without even realising it.

When we evaluate the creations of others, we define value, thus we create.

It is time we created the system needed to support all in the arts, to assist them doing what they do, and all humans evaluating them; all humans.
