> A possibly complementary take is that maybe mediums also just... have shelf lives? Like, if there's been no innovation in radio dramas or still life paintings of flowers or superhero comics over the past thirty years, it's not because we as a culture have lost the collective spark, you know?

I think this is a useful point! I was chatting to a french individual in aus recently, about the lack of culture in Brisbane. He responded that there was lots of great ballet, opera, ... - they used the word 'culture' for what I might call 'high culture'. I think this is indicative of the above point: a boomer has a certain concept of what culture is, from their experiences. A zoomer who interacts mostly with a digital world has a very different concept.
