The artists in absurd times that normalize fascism offer their own reality, as Camus advised with his "Myth of Sisyphus" ie. Dali. Sisyphus had a major win...he defeated death. The Nobel winner from the Phillipines identified with Sisyphus and Cassandra. I think Sisyphus was framed, and I link him and Candide. Terry Southern updated Voltaire and Candide went through transition to be "Candy". Ringo liked it and made it a movie, with him Starring. He wrote Dr Strangelove and Easy Rider books and scripts.
