Cruel Clown show

What a show that will others believe they're owed entertainment. Owed amusement, owed kiddie pool play.

Such is a means that will never end, of large waves of attentions economies that will move in and out with much whimsy.

Fame, Infamy, and Attention Economising. It all happens at once, performance metric hallucinations shake like winds. Commercial platforms yearn for it, long for it, and call for it.

Now, I shall quote, as we go through this circles.

Dyna Soar 

"One of the worst things that can happen to an artist is becoming unintentionally famous on the internet. Nobody is in control of it, and when it occurs, it’s a completely destructive force that endangers you and your work due to the nature of the majority of people online. The macro-level behaviour of social media is sick and twisted and directly/indirectly pursues the suffering and torment of others as entertainment. It doesn't seem to matter if you “embrace” momentary celebrity or not. It will punish you, hunt you, grift off you, and make up stories about you regardless. There is a sense of entitlement from the viewer that they are owed entertainment constantly from you. That all work you do is immediately “open source”, available to anyone, and ready to make a buck off of. Any rejection of this is considered elitist and antisocial, and the acceptance is considered “selling out”. You can’t win and in general, nobody I know that has had the spotlight thrown on them really wants that. We all know it’s horrible."

B- bonus. If you haven't already, you can look of Signifiers in the documentary of the entertainment industry. Or, with how social media is treated like one.

Mereology of Aesthetics

As with cartooning, the ideas and conceptions adapted to for a new state of creation.

Reduction flatpacking to establish holism with the attempt to move the improvised beats to scenes, to sequences, to acts, to a completed novel. All this relationism, from coherentism to incoherentism, and all those effects rest on the imagined dogmas present under the legalese of fiction.

All in suspension of the fiction.

On plot:Spectacle C.Dereck Varn

Memory of C.Dereck

This is a comment:

Being an entertainer, I can only find the concepts of Harlan Ellison's The Glass Teat inspiring to create literary entertainment. This concept aligns with Byung-Chul Han Cognitainment concept with my craft, I seek to make it into the creative commons. I can only assume our old copyright framework aids in this diffuse atomisation, like you said.

With all the cargo culting though.This may be the limits of our meliorism, granted with our social apparatus of these platform capitalists, left to our own devices to raise consciousness.

So I can only think of connection while still at the tension of these commodity relations as an edutainment creative class owning the means of production. Then carry on.

Seeing the normalised advertising and commodifying proffesion left to us, along with the subvertisement. The only thing on these platforms is locked within. It's arguable that with all this automated white-collar work now, it's going to first to go. It's a fascinating subject that came from aristotle of plot:spectcale, Robert Mckhee's argued in one of his craft books there is no distinction.

I guess we will have to move on with commodified para-social relationships from platform to platform. Thx for the talk, been doing my best to inform my praxis while not falling into the pragmatism traps.

More on entertainment, good and bad. I've read about:

Harlen Ellison's The Glass Teat 1+2 And his speech on toilets
Byung-Chul Han's The Good Entertainment > Those are goof
Robert McKee Character
Nicolas D Villarreal a soul of a new type

David Foster Wallace talk on consumerism > mid
The Attention merchants : Tim Wu

Neil Postman on Amusing Ourselves to Death and Technopoly. ( I don't know how long those ideas have lasted) >Negative

Confusion Matrix


Unrelated to a peanut calling another viewbotting, yet idk, what Seth says about cheating applies. Along with a dishonest game of publishing out there.

There's a machine learning term confusion matrix, or 'viewbotting service', and it includes spell checkers and the AI detectors not working.

So, even with the variables of all that. Cheating and all, the attempt to short-term to game and opportunities to race to the bottom are always present. Not going to deny. With the terminus of behavioural patterns aligning with thad

Ignore the vanity metrics.

Current license opinions, of civic DUTY.


Couch Gregor, resolves. Also more Beep Boop because why not. Of all the law terms.
Are they going to know this is extrajudicial? Okay then.
  • DRM is bad; it absolves civic duty. I have a mind that can informally judge ownership

  • Ultimately, I have to conclude scraping ought to be public domain. not private equity or government. Any readjusting of IP law to fit their interest will lead to injustice.
    from the notes, fair use/fair dealing and public domain.

  • Commercial firms ought to have their copyright reduced. Specifically Disney. Vertical media outlets should not have monopoly power over non-profits and freelance business acts. (Disney does not care about non-profits, it can take a 

  • Protect Public domain, virality is a crapshoot other than the direct response platforms. Celebrity endorsements vertically travel at moments at the algorithm.

  • Since there's no accepted conventional definition of plagiarism, it can be debated ad infinitum; it's infinitely generative. Conceptually and abstractly. So lawyers are needed for agreements. Yet the agreements themselves can become overwrought, so a handshake deal works best between client relations. (This ain't natural law, hence why the court and lawyers exist )

  • Keeping the idea of the idea/expression is a useful fiction.

  • Freedom of expression + Right to oblivion > Copyright. Since state-sanctioned monopolies don't need the first two, since popularity isn't needed. There are cases of unjust profit entitlement/fraud, yet they are always in favour of concentrated industries, so anti-trust first.

  • That being said, a freelancer can be a case of vulturism, yet there's way more vulturism by Alen Dean Foster and in other cases. Creatives are losing their design rights out of silly clauses. (It's always disney/nintendo.)

  • Nobody should make a living as a copyright troll, completely.
    (These are all my unforced opinions.)

  • As time goes on, we are going to see more indefensible conceptions of the anacho-capitalist concept of self-ownership (If somebody does it, someone else will.) It's simpler; nobody does due to public domain. Non-binding and unforced with not statuatory.

These have been informed by Tom Scott, Patricia Taxxon, and Seth Godin [2] and Technollama, a technically proficient lawyer, and Geo

(If you want to check the law notes. and recreate advocacy groups)


The fun fun fun of the most frustrating arguments on microbloggers. Of the draconian copyright law.
oh This too. I feel like this is becoming cope bait. Again, too many bad actors hijacking.
Despite all these notes, I'm still keeping my, possibly last, zine's production untouched.

In laymans terms

The first impression may the only thing that matters, when the outsider blocks or pays attention further to the facsimile of the auto-advertisements of social media, something birthed through the direct response mail order posting, from
Lester Wunderman.

Is that being deflationist? Is that what they mean by streamlining a heuristic of attention capture?

Well, no one will pay more attention to the first impression of one's work than the creator.

Pop goes the impression, as Satoshi-kun says, experiential to the immediate and the moment of long-term expanse. That's one way to look at it.

on the lindy effect

The Lindy Law

Reading self-help advice of crafting crafter for craft. The way of the meta of meta. Self-referential.

WITH NO OWNERSHIP Welcome to the creative commons. Are you surprised?

So much intake of consumption of content with the way it's like it's got that way. Industry complex of condescension on the front page, or am I looking at the mindless entertainment in infront of the front page?

This is the best the place has to offer.

Then you have to protect your attention.

Then with manners it goes. To look in the other places.

Abstract/Concrete




All the abstract mentalities, of ideas and non-reality, and all the physical reality. To the amount we take, there are few qualitative degrees that warrant selection.

The physical expression and the ineffable idea/conception stuck within one's head. Unable to be expressed until it hits.

There's that design, with the idea made into a digital and analogue expression.

With that in mind, such a way of trying to squeeze blood from a stone is the dialectical approach that happens.

Oh, thinking and reflecting on the idea/expression dichotomy.

Cruelly Eliminativeist and cruely Empiricist

look at all that logic and physics of what some may call business. if there is a physics to business, there is none in the qualitative side, or the burnt embers

Why I'm against it: it's not fun not having beliefs and sensations.

Crafting crafter of craft. Rather than the unique one. To the way that the origins of things aren't unique.

All that scientism is any ideological commitment and an attempt at universal appeal. Mindset of a production boolean value.

A job of bean counting. A job is a measure of the sunk cost of wrong measurement, of Pavlovian frameworks circulating into themselves.

Such is the status of old money and cool money.

Honest hacks vs depressed hacks


Depending on the socialised means of production. The artisan city/suburban dweller class.

It's work of art/entertainment paradox working here.

I'm going to twist this post by Seth and Harlan Ellison it up.

There are the vendors who will listen. Hits, specs. These are easy-to-work-with entertainers. Able to connect with.

Then there's the depressed one who hits the spec, yet feels rote. These could be talents. 

I mean, that's the difference; the artisan is a creative with tension in the craft.

The craft itself of the depressed feels rote and standardised. These could be tantrums as performances.

An honest hack entertainer delivers on times, understands specifications, yet can go beyond the mechanical performances of eliminative materialism and then attempt an organsim to delight with something remarkable with the client relationship,

What is the best craft for the illiterate?

What is the best heuristic that respects Occam's razor more likely? Or the deflationist's first impression of creating the finest grape juice? The highest artificially

Appealing to the short, illiterate feedback loops of erotic perversions for the sake of it.

Then there's the logograms, of not exaggerating the exaggerated, to not lead into hyperbolic messages.

Well, the simple first impression does make sense with the direct advertiser it's making that way.

Simple front impressions.

Bip bip bip.

On vulgar Auteurism, Vulgar style/genre

Kyle Kallgren likes to be the critic of literary auteurs. Or the art director/producer running the show and their vision.

Yes, even with style, even with genre, one can still be bad.

Axiology does not care about the legalese pf
the front cover, the performance the the resonance which follows after, beyond the natural law.

So that from court of law to public. It remains the distinction of low and high still. It can be suspended to serve plenty of stimulation.

Or YOU TEARING ME APART!! LISA WITH SYMBOLIC JUSTICE

video 🔻🛋 on the best/worst over-distributed vanity film. In the spirit of Robert Mcghee. Of the spectacular production and the founderent manueavuring through the industry. Deproffesional within the social media.


(Wonder where Kyles video will be next? I don't follow him.)

Notes on oversetext design course

. The meta of social media is the limit of the craft, with people copying conventional IP to thirstrap/tail at the treat. Is that what one of the polemical essays did? Try to highlight this cargo cult. The commercial illustration mindset!

Wow, banging on the factory settings was a great banger, with its polemics of the one-dimensional man of the standardisation of our consciousness.

The tyranny of the firm is one that's to be solved through other essays which deal with contract law and freelancers alongside that with the chokepoint of vertically integrated media.
Freelancers founded into a new venture should act more like enterprising firms; who'd have thun
k it.

The video explaining modernism and its polemical connotations was spot on.

Wonder what oversetect will be after I Post this? Regardless, I'll thank him for the list.

No lock on traffic/circle of platforms

So that with our systems, with the distribution of moving and going into the way of life.

The back and forth of the fundamentals of platforms can't be traced back, a series of direct responses that lead towards.

This is the leap, or the other jump into another platform that happens with another line of work. Getting into a village of our own ways to make sense of this hybrid of tensions along with the domain of knowledge and the affiliations.

There's no fixed point anymore, no fixed credentialism.

So it begins again.

Curate = direct response

Simple observation, yet goes unnoticed on a micro-level.

Everybody online wants to be curated, want to be selected, yet nobody wants, from the entering in the arena of social media.

Then this extremophile place where they act like the celebs they want, to the informal or formal curation, the matter of what.

The only place to escape the rhetorical centre is to do it personal and not post. The right to be forgotten can't escape these bounds.

You can't be better than the form, the respect of it.

Now that's constraint and framing.

On Tyranny of convenience, the reassurance machine

This thing (Other than notes of net neutrality, which I covered. )

Abstract expression with meat grinder doodle


Is this where the regular kind of our ideas.

Boring =/= Trivial

Regular
Mediocre
Standard
Normal
Non commodity fetishised
Mainstream
Specification

All those things indicated a matter of day expressed to be somewhere normalised of oughtiness of little moral judgements of the day become a code of ethics followed and into a way of life. 

Well

Such a matter is what we're dealing with tech that can become something of a quick utility monster fix.

Now it's time to not be contingent on the utility alone. With excuses with that.

Recognizing (From Kant) The external and internal and vital conceptual distinction of consciousness is necessary to understanding. Well, Is there a distinction for the commodity and the fetishised.

Not the body fetishism, the most profitable that a rhetorical error.

Pacta Sunty Sevanda a deal is a deal

 When the publisher who had bound by the firm fiction, and is bound to serve the individual freelancer with a contract that will ensure distribution of the metrics.

Then the deal has been readjusted again, with self-publishing slush pile, yet more slush piley

Guess it's time to understand this game, or status game, anti-status game, or status game collapse. 

Well, well, even with this cussy article brought to new values of reassemble the most simple governmental factors to plays.

anti-synth-work

Work giving labour to another or to yourself, physical or cognative.

Yet the netural, it happens, with the schedule wether it goes or not.

Even with this one.

The performance continues.

With each tip of typing this, the montony and banality of a copywriter one once where unfurls the a moment of yearning for connection.

Then it returns in of itself.

Tautolgys sticking, tautolgys going.

The perks of obscurity

It's all a blur, so many little content curation and moderation being what is sold, all in an expanding universe of vendors and suppliers with all their advertising, all a blur, all the fandom/hatedom, all the time, all of it was going in a blur of media heads down the way.

Academics are avoiding xwitter, or microblogs, some of them are in substack, they are going there, I found a good post on obscurity.

Since it's all datum, observable of the lowest stratum of comprehension, the scientific, and the narrative of this is to study, or when with a monopoly/monopsony of attention. Fame/infamy explains the entitlement complex of status value and cultural capital.


There's little attention. No data for interupption advertising.

No Ruthless expose industry complex, the need to make dramatic fiction to draw attention.

Thousands of merchandise, gone.

Fan fictions all around. Shippers, and all that.

No Status value to follow.

Cherish this moment while it lasts, I trust you, don't I?

( Oh, I've still have to learn to do a sales call, and a payment specification. )

What did Zig Ziglar, a conflict avoider, says with the data generality and a meaningful specific? Or, a semiotic specific in a chain.

If you know, you know, sex work vendors/suppliers governance

There was this cartoonist who did this graph, this is from memory of digital dreams.
Yep, NSFW do get paid better in extrajudicial spaces, why though? Well, It's meme'd as he his commented on the sex work got debanked, commenting how publishers bamboozle creatives with NDA's and sussy licensing deals.

So, ahedonia aside, got further comments of this reductionstic. Physical mechanism and the clerks that do it?

I here plenty of flippant accounts with the porn community, or the gooning community, and then there's the masturbating yourself to death with substack posts. Is it a dead end? Well, It goes back to Queens blade critique by Bennet the sage.

" queensblade of being too good at targeting their intended demographic, but that doesn't mean it has to come with all the narrative baggage that it does in terms of succeeding with their demographic as well as being a generally alright story, queen's blade falls short
of my little pony "


Well, that aspect maybe why they call is sex work, since the illiterate audience who only cares about that aspect will be an left to feel like doing something better. Even Seth dismissed it with "A/B testing leading decentralised hosts leading to a porn site."

"Cookie cutter porn accounts farming commissions" - anonymous, It was with a somebody dissatisfied, and it's coming along with my own that, this idea that you have to do it, is the pervading idea of sexcess, forced labour. It can reek of desperation, or it can not, If they are friendly, I'm not calling it out, only picking out the hustlers, because fewer hustlers mean I can get more honest conversations.

Guess I'm not a gooner, to an obsessive compulsive disorder.

I asked one of the sex workers, and I attempts to clarify my own thing, too much of response rate rather than any literacy, it's too casual.

"That's the problem with the physical mechanism of sex/asex work, it can get so reductionistic to exclude literary genre." I typed to one of the rule 34's, and with that, if financial extentionism is all they care about. Then, that ain't exiting.

Since, the governance will have to go anarcho-syndicalist or communalist with no enforcement, (look up, shadow libraries) otherwise it will have to be a keep-scrolling and self-governance kind of affair, Extrajudicially. 

They are going to deal with certain kinks being illegal. With this brute fact reductionism, stop acting infantilizes and tantrums. ( That's anarco capitalism for ya )

Start to be taken serious, not like the prosumer ways of a gamer. Fatalism and predetermination. I wish the porn vendors well, other than that.

Tom-Fishburne Cartoon. Unfortunately, since the ab-testing of the hosts leads to a wild west and Kim Kardashian Meta, I'm not so sure if being cute and entertaining American audiences with a mawkish look at the sex industry.

It's a doomed excuse without the organisation. So I'm going to have to be more picky with the untagged hustling on microbloggers.

Hustling by definition is dishonest money-making.

Since sex work (and work as in being nebulous that It can capture forced labour) can force a toxic notion of sexcess. < Further Reading/n essay.
