& what is more bourgeois, more capitalist than the idea of genius?

anything can be pornified-the bizarre, the obscure- look at hawkings & theoretical physics. yet maybe it retains some of its mystique from its pseudo-religious links. grandiose themes like "origin of the universe", multi verses, pluriverse etc. not sure you can have equivalent interest ( disabled or not) for obscure math theorems-i.e without the fantasy of physics that it has a reference in the real, physicality of the world-presumably you can't really narrativise a protagonist (or a generic consciousness) in the area of self avoiding random walks
