[Platt]
No one claims the intellectual is confined to the individual. But dominated
by individual creators, like the brujo, yes. 

[Case]
In short, No. Every individual contributes and draws from the collective
accumulation of knowledge. Some contribute more than others and some derive
more benefit than others. But it is still collective. I find it interesting
that you put so much stress on "the brujo" and yet you do not even know his
name.
