The One and The Many and Heteronomy

The one and the many has to do  with patterns common to all.  Heteronomy implies a something beyond one  that has influence or control.  The concern of the one and the many is with patterns  related to how the cosmos or universe works.  The first is broader and more supposition than the second.  One could infer influences on an artist  but it would be more of a guess to say  that one is essentially creative  because the universe is made up of nano elements  that possess freedom.  Or that we are as we are because A = B   or does not.  Or because entropy is real or not.  

The artist is never entirely autonomous 

because there are always 

known and unknown patterns 

that might well be universal 

as well as particular influences. 

We are never entirely autonomous 

or individual 

IMO.
