It's a high speed culture for a world that is accelerating. It's not about spending 200 years carving angels in the flying buttresses anymore, which is kind of a pity, but it's also not unexpected.
Even Art these days is largely done in a very short space of time, DaVinci spent
years working on his pieces. Once again, not worse, just different.
Theres no such real thing as culture, it's easy to wrap History up in the same box and call it culture, but it's not really.
Take Canterbury Cathedral. Yes, it's a gorgeous building, but while it was sitting there, being gorgeous, and being used by the Elite of society, 90% of the people in the country were busy just trying to get food on the plate, and maybe having a bath once a month
