We have been become trapped by our own perception of where the value is in what we create. The formats we are used to have become our metric for how we judge our output, and thus are intertwined with how we value ourselves. We are not one thing. We digest the world and translate it through a process, and all the facets that make up our lives have value and contribute to our art. We need to rethink how we see ourselves, our creativity and what is value to us. The process is the value.
