Processed and Unrefined.

Nowadays, I find a lot of people, including myself, who enjoy exhibiting the process - marketing and ticketing this participation in the process as if it were an experience denied to those who live ordinary, post-processed, microwavable lives. Perhaps it is exciting for them. For me, however, when I witness another person's creative process, feelings of sickness and humiliation wash over; as if it were me, not them, baring all on that platform. Its like reading the diary of a masochist, as if it living it on a daily basis weren't enough. Why do it? Why be so public? I suppose its a form of generosity... and also a form of appeasing one's ego.
