WTF fest - shinning a big bright light on the obsolescence of the middle man.

SXSW and it's ilk are in the tar pits, dying a slow death - help us, help them… with a merciful and quick death blow.

the old illusion that the artist/creator has a need for someone else to throw the party, to find the illustrator or editor, to sell and ship the art, to put the whine (pun intended) and cheese out is slowly lifting.

pimps are only need for illicit and illegal activities - art isn't that, it's not a crime. creators should be respected for the hand they have in the evolution of our species, not encouraged to act like whores.
