“Walter Benjamin always insisted against Kant that experience was not, as in science, only of the empirical, but also of the transcendental. Science is about findings in the empirical, while art is about creating the transcendental, or creating a prism onto the transcendental. Thus science-industry is about implementing findings in the making of prototypes, while the culture industry is about the standardization of creation. The culture industries are always the creative industries (McRobbie 1999). Science has findings, art has creation of oeuvre (work). Science is about findings in nature. It [art] is about judgement.”
