One of the nice things about having control over my time lately is that after years and years of working with the Internet, I lately have actually had the time to “surf the web” a bit and come across all these lovely digital meme packages… Below is one of them that I rather enjoyed. Am still trying to find out who made it so I can credit them properly, but maybe that is not that important in today’s day and age. Just got an invite from Artist X on myspace, who, I guess, was a moderately successful musician in the typical sense, but recently decided to go incognito and focus all his marketing around his music and its content rather than his persona. Nice approach. Now we just need to figure out anonymous and automatic value exchange models and we will no longer have to worry about copyrights and money (maybe it’s just that we will decide to help and work with each other because we realize that in all our separation we are just one after all) 😉 The whole digital media phenomenon is curious. I think it will probably serve as the straw that will break the back of our current economic systems, but then, what is art for if not for bringing about transformation?? 😉
