Abstract
This research paper investigates the ways in which culture has become an industry through a complicated network of subjective relations. The stark irony currently plaguing the art world is one example of this. This is in terms of corporate compliance, financial greed and institutional misdirection. The paper introduces ideas of an alternative system and mindset which would allow progressive strides that have a base in creative change. Fluid investigation across sociology, psychology, literature, and science interrogates a number of themes and concepts; which directly feed into the willful inattention of the current generation. Historical references run alongside analysis of current ethical professionalism to try and unpick the possibility of radical sociology through artist networks, collaborations, and collectives.
