This interview makes the point that art has a role in the environmental movement in allowing us to evaluate and feel what it could be like to live in possible futures. I remember a similar discussion is a climate one podcast https://www.climateone.org/audio/storytelling-through-climate-crisis https://www.climateone.org/audio/storytelling-through-climat... It also covers the idea of "scenius". The interwoven context that gives rise to works of genius. I found this helpful for expressing something that has been bugging me about doing art in metropolitan Japan. There is a lot of creative people, there is a lot of output, but everyone feels very siloed in their own genre, or school, or .. source of funding. I havn't had a sense of a diverse ecosystem of exchanging ideas or jointly creating of society.
