This is lovely, strange, and wrenching all at the same time. A teenager whose father passed away when he was just six had pulled out an old Xbox game that he and his dad used to play together, only to discover a part of his father lived on in the game, as a ghost car.

INTERNET: MÚSICA DEL SIGLO XXI Y BRECHA GENERACIONAL

INTERNET: MÚSICA DEL SIGLO XXI Y BRECHA GENERACIONAL | a lifetime online | Scoop.it

Una década después, Internet para la gente de mi generación sigue siendo una especie de patio de recreo. Es un sitio donde divertirse, donde experimentar. Es un sitio que te otorga libertad para hacer practicamente todo lo que quieras, un sitio en el que has crecido y que puedes explorar cómo y hasta donde quieras, un sitio sin límites de espacio ni tiempo en el que jugar a ser quien quieras ser, hasta que te aburras y decidas probar otra cosa.

Jerónimo M.M.'s insight:

Como me he pasado media vida acusando a la generación encima de la mía de no entender Internet,  la verdad es que me hace muy feliz ver que otros mas jóvenes ya me están acusando de no enterarme de nada.  


Tienen toda la razón, los verdaderos nativos son ellos.  Cuando ellos nacieron ya existía eMule.  


Yo todavía recuerdo cuando ciertos libros, revistas, películas, discos, eran dificilísimos de encontrar.  Te tenias que ir al fin del mundo para acceder a ellos, pedirlos por correo, importarlos....  Así me forme, con fanzines, no con blogs, y si me aprietas a veces hasta lo hecho de menos: ese que-las-cosas-fueran-dificiles-de-encontrar, y la manera en que eso revalorizaba lo encontrado.  


Pero eso se acabó, culturalmente ya vivimos en tiempos de post-escasez (jace clayton ha escrito bien sobre el tema.)


Mainstream o underground todo esta a la misma distancia de la mano posada sobre el ratón.  


El chaval tiene razón, somos unos carrozas, con gusto le paso el testigo, y me acurruco releer mi recién completada colección del inigualable fanzine noventero RollerDerby, que, sigo pensando (como me toca) le da mil vueltas a todo lo de ahora.

Cómo monetizar videos online. | a lifetime online | Scoop.it
YouTube made a big push to get video makers to deliver higher-quality clips. Now some say Google's site isn't delivering on its end.
Jerónimo M.M.'s insight:

Interesante artículo sobre el problema eterno de YopuTube.  Cómo monetizar el contenido.  Dos casos a seguir son:

 

-Vice.tv. Lei en una enterivista con ellos (he perdido el link) que la publicidad simplemente no da ni para financiar produciones de muy bajo presupuesto, si no tienes más de 3 millones de vistas con una publicidad mjy muy intrusiva, su solución, un hibrido de publi y branded content

 

http://www.vice.com/video

 

 -La otra solución es ir a por los millones de ojos, y los que saben de eso son la gente de Maker Studios, merece la pena leer esto, sobre su estudio/incubadoras de estrellas indies de YouTube

Story 2.0: The Surprising Thing About The Next Wave Of Narrative

Story 2.0: The Surprising Thing About The Next Wave Of Narrative | a lifetime online | Scoop.it

Story resists reinvention. As the example of Finnegan’s Wake shows, storytelling is not something that can be endlessly rejiggered and reengineered. Story is like a circle. A circle is a circle. The minute you start fussing with the line you create a non-circle. Similarly, story only works inside narrow bounds of possibility. Imagine narrative transportation as this powerful brain capacity that is protected by a lock. The lock can only be opened with a specific combination. For as long as there have been humans, the ways of undoing the lock have been passed down through generations of storytellers. Going back to the earliest forms of oral folktales and moving forward through stage plays, to printed novels, and modern YouTube shorts, the fundamentals of successful storytelling have not changed at all. Over the last 15 years, perhaps the most spectacularly successful “new” thing in story has been very old. I’m speaking here of the rise of great cable dramas like The Sopranos, The Wire, and Breaking Bad. But there’s nothing new about these shows. They are just very good novels transferred to the screen. (The much ballyhooed anti-hero trend may be new to TV drama, but it’s nothing new to literature.) When it comes to the fundamentals of story, there is not now--and never will be--anything new under the sun.

Lektion III is a 1,5 hour-long journey through music history and beyond build from more than 10.000 sampled pieces of sound lifted off more than 250 old vinyl records from 51 different countries on six continents. A musical odyssey that blends everything from Moroccan traditional songs, Indian hymns and field recordings of Cameroonian Pygmies to forgotten Yugoslav psych, French avant-garde rock and early German electro into a dark and giddy, genre-melting trip.

"After all, saving the world might be a price worth paying for destroying everyone’s privacy, while a larger-than-life mission might convince young and idealistic employees that they are not wasting their lives tricking gullible consumers to click on ads for pointless products. Silicon Valley and Wall Street are competing for the same talent pool, and by claiming to solve the world’s problems, technology companies can offer what Wall Street cannot: a sense of social mission."
