I was briefly calling myself an independent researcher: somebody who self-funds spec R&D on their own ideas. In theory it’s something like indie-research : academic research :: blogging/self-publishing : traditional publishing. But the idea doesn’t really work.

Dumb queation if I may: What about Bell Labs? The eras are different now, and the funding probably isn't there anymore but for the time it seemed like an incredibly productive model. Perhaps what they did might not be reproducible for reasons that you have alluded to.
