I pitched Farcaster to a friend yesterday as the place to have real conversations and connections with people (primarily in crypto but expanding).

Going into production in three weeks. Lots of ideas for how to turn it into a monthly/sustainable thing, but current thinking is: ⌐◨-◨ + Farcaster + Zora + Base + (TBD) = Weird Internet Magic??

I think this applies generally to lots of industries right now. Catering to the lowest common denominator bc that's 'good enough'. Wasn't groundbreaking but the book Filterworld talking about how algorithms are causing everything to skew towards the same average look, feel, vibe seems apt here too.

Starting to shoot a (hopefully ongoing) short-form series next month and planning to reach out after to share a few onchain ideas I've been cooking up for awhile and think could make a splash.

Planning to utilize farcaster as the main hub for a short form series I'm filming next month and launching shortly after. Would love to touch base with you guys about a few ideas/questions related to video on here sometime.

Just starting this book called Derivative Media. A tldr from it's intro: "In short, financialization is transforming culture in many negative ways: through its material extraction of capital, reducing our cultural capacity; its legal machinations, contractually binding media companies into licensing agreements and further exploitation of IP; its textual ramifications, transforming our songs and stories into financial instruments; its historical rupture, reorganizing the ­ structure of creative work into tradable assets; and its subjective effect, as popular culture is seen as less capable of complex art, in favor of cheap copies predicated on brand recognition and nostalgia. This book argues that financialization is a key structural force—perhaps the key structural force—shaping cultural production and circula- tion today. Contrary to the myth that finance capital merely allocates resources according to neutral market forces, this book demonstrates that finance is not effi- ciently allocating our cultural resources; rather, it plunders our stories, songs, and creative labor through financial engineering. Contemporary popular media texts now function as risk-hedging derivatives through which capital accumulates in diversified cultural hedge funds operated by a handful of transnational media corporations, disciplined by even bigger financial firms. The result is wider resources and thus audiences for formulaic film, television, and popular music, while more diverse and radical productions are fed through the algorithm to be financialized. Culture has a subservient role in the financial system, which sees it as merely another numerical value to trade. The stock exchange has been ­ embedded within the media text. This financialized media system generates inequality, both mate- rial and cultural, through labor suppression and upward redistribution of wealth. We need critical financial literacy to understand this shift in the organization of culture if there is to be any chance of reversing its decline. The old models of ownership and management are outdated; the flows of finance are now dominant, but remain in the shadows. Financialization is a little-understood, ­ profoundly transformative, and fundamentally destructive force within the ­cultural industries."

Somebody I used to work with is over at Reelshort. Been meaning to catch up with her, but I also generally dislike the shows/quality of what gets put out in this vertical drama space. Def fascinating though and agree that short form has so much potential.
