I suspect the humanities version of hands-on tinkering is high-brow connoisseurship. They read the edgy novels, watch weird cinema, listen to fringe music etc. I just wait for the scalable subset of artistic techniques to show up in MCU movies and middlebrow TV.

I can consume the early stage art, I just don’t find the payoff worth the effort. Kinda like how normies could probably learn to use Linux, push come to shove, but don’t find the payoff worthwhile. They just use the phone app.
