With the changes to access to culture, I'm reminded of the infinite monkeys with typewriters meme. You'll get a monkey to write the complete works of the Bard, but you'll also get monkeys that write complete works of undiscovered amazing writers: a fact that we won't notice among the detritus.

I saw this Jimmy Carr clip recently, and I was considering how this captures the tension in a pithy way. www.facebook.com/JimmyCarr/vi...

Its a key area for schools to understand: particularly to develop their vision for how a purposeful school culture can hold these in creative tension.
