well its definitely a disingenuous mystique, or an artifice.
Authentic genius is maybe a bit strange because it is original, creative, fresh, clear, ultra-focused, transfigured from the ordinary, etc. Whenever I've found a genuine genius whether in the arts, philosophy, sciences, etc. I've always felt as if this were something new and yet very familiar and close to home.
But these type artists sort of assume a disingenuous semblance of genius. Its like they are trying to profit from the idea of genius.
Why the masses believe are seduced by them is the same as asking why people are seduced by gurus, or pop scientists, or media personalities. Its a trick.
