Artistic works prior to the introduction of mass electronic media convey diverse expressions.
These works are the result of individuality and tradition, rather than being a reflection of a common intellectual and emotional currency. This individuality of voice held firm until the latter quarter of the twentieth century, when it was gradually overcome by the conformity of idea and opinion rigidly held in force by the dominant, globally-informed media of contemporary times.
One need not think when one can assume a perspective and attitude already fully formed.
