To ez mar’s point about the media scene being dead, and the luck of the eavesdrop being the new resumé, here’s a piece I wrote on how glitchy work has become
Great interview! I have an antidote to the last bit about too much surveillance and taste awareness in NY - or the East Bay, or anywhere, really - for novelty to emerge. It’s simple and free! Get off Insta. Look up for gods sake! Use your own eyes. Make your own observations. Have IRL interactions with actual people, whether you know them or not. Take a walk. Take the subway. Ride a ferry. Ride a citibike! It’s MAGICAL. And inspiring. And it never, ever gets old.
Same! Deleting IG a few years ago may be the best decision I’ve ever made for my brain health. It’s also been nice to discover things organically, like by word of mouth or observation, again.

Agreed, having divorced myself from IG a couple years ago it’s crazy how much it can rewire your brain.
