HUME, DAVID
1711–1776
The Bundle Theory (Authorlessness)
Hume: introspection finds no self, only a bundle of perceptions in succession. CoCA's Authorlessness (§3.4.2) is Hume on the artist. There is no continuous self behind the works; there is a sequence of submissions to the GAI. The artist is the bundle. The wall text names no author because no author is needed. The bundle suffices. The catalog raisonné is the only continuity available.
