Ultimately, the point is that we should not consider the endowment a fixed and static managed investment.

More and happier students will donate more in the future, as happened when Harvard weathered the 1930s Depression. Allston will bring better research, attract better faculty, and bring more prestige to the university. Housing renovations will improve student...
...then Paramount, giddy from the fumes of a profitable franchise, marched fans through the noble (but sometimes frustratingly static) Deep Space Nine, then the noble (but ever-so-slightly-belated) Voyager and on down into the black night of Enterprise, a well-intentioned but not very noble re-reboot that featured a theme song by Diane Warren (borrowed from - wait for it - Patch Adams) in place of the traditional, lush instrumental opener and, in the holy captain's chair, Scott Bakula (borrowed from - wait for it - Quantum Leap).

And as Biggers engages the viewer with innovative forms, he asks them to consider the very basis with which they understand his art.Born in Los Angeles...
...communication. A steady stream of constantly updated, readily available information has accompanied the emergence of an increasingly exhibitionist public. Moving beyond the sphere of interpersonal relations, this trend has crept into the artistic realm, raising questions about the status of art and its exhibition in society.Once predominantly a static creation relegated to the gallery or stage, art increasingly faces the same struggle as print media, grappling with the pressing need to remain relevant in a constantly changing world. Rather than succumb to archaism, or even extinction, innovators have seized upon the opportunities that the art-technology interface provides...
