Abstract

"Does a relationship exist between a mechanical-scientific culture and its ramifications to general philosophies and theories in and about itself and its teachings, and the forms of spontaneous "creative" expression which comment on that culture from within? In other words, is Art becoming mechanized, mass-produced as well as mass-production conscious, is spontaneity becoming trite? Television gives us a somewhat starkly disconcerting clue to the possible answers. Here Culture can only sneak quietly out of the darkened room and once out, run madly to t he hills to join a Thoreau in his perennial game of tautological tiddly-winks."
