8. My time

Although the original meaning of the phrase X coined by Y was something like this:

"The systematic invalidation of the hierarchies of representational functions and techniques" of art means that "hierarchy of subjects worthy to be represented will someday be abolished," hence anybody, and therefore "everybody," can be ______ once that hierarchy dissipates,"in the future, everybody will be _____," and not merely those individuals worthy of _______.

The current and more popular perception refers to the ephemerality of _____ brought out in the information age, and more recently the democratization of media outlets brought out by the internet. In this formulation the meaning of X is

"In the future there will be so many channels of achieving ____, virtually anyone can become ______ for a brief period of time."

Answer:
X: 15 minutes of Fame
Y:Andy Warhol

Give X and Y. (The blanks are there to prevent the question from being obvious)
