ARTISTS REVOLT AGAINST SOCIAL MEDIA
--- Deep Questions podcast 295 with Cal Newport
I’m a fan of Cal Newport and the content he creates. It’s mostly about how to keep your (digital) distractions under control by using different deep-work methods. It’s basicly a way of living by making your day a good day.
Link to view the podcast: https://piped.r4fo.com/watch?v=KcQMt9HabqA The part I would like to highlight is discussed in the first 37 minutes.
"In this episode Cal takes a closer look at a growing trend of artists quitting social media and instead reverting to old fashioned websites. Are these acts of principled sacrifice or a sustainable way to be creative online? Cal argues for the latter, showing how the internet without social media curation algorithms can be a place of rich discovery and audience building. He then takes questions on similar topics and ends by playing a few rounds of “deep or crazy” during the final segment."
Some video’s which are part of this revolt:
- Deleting social media and making a website: https://piped.r4fo.com/watch?v=tV6BbPTN5PQ
- Why I don’t post anymore: https://piped.r4fo.com/watch?v=W3h9gV_z8OM&t=0
- I deleted all my social media and made a website: https://piped.r4fo.com/watch?v=r0RqucKwIcw
Let me try to summarize some important parts of Cal his analysis.
What are the main reasons why artists are stopping with social media?
1. Social media is controlling and reducing the quality of their art
2. The algorithms are rewarding sameness and not uniqueness
3. Social media is making them unhappy
4. They didn’t get into social media for social validation
Cal dives shortly into the history of the internet and the discoverability challenges / problems with the web (networks of networks of networks). He also is mentioning the value of serendipity discovery mechanisms.
👀 At 16m45s Cal is discussing and drawing the concept of a distributed trust model, this is where the nostreness kicks in! 👀
This is a clip from 22m28 till 23m22s of the podcast:
