marketing is not evil . it's just a tool . it can be used for what might perceived as evil ends . but that's a different topic . i need to emphasise the use of my word 'intrinsic' . what i mean by this is that one should not have to feel coerced into promoting their works in ways that don't feel right to them . many of the artist i associate with do what they do because they feel compelled to do so without any extrinsic pressure . and they want to share their work and be validated for their contributions . the monetary is secondary to them . i would not call this 'pure' but 'honest' . granted some people have a knack for promoting their work and take a lot of pleasure in doing that . personally enjoy sharing my work . but i don't like to feel pressure in doing so . my motivation drops to zero when this is the case . this drop is clinically proven . https://hbr.org/2013/04/does-money-really-affect-motiv
