The search for the meaning of life should start from yourself. Most likely it will end within too, unfinished. It is a quest for you to find out, who is the person, which is looking at you from the mirror. Continue reading “The meaning of life”
Of interesting wants and relevant needs
It’s not about how good or bad your content is – it much more about the algorithm, it will give your following multiple times more than the quality of your content ever will. Maybe I’m just backwards, anti-change, anti “new things” but I can’t help think that is fundamentally wrong. It is truly not the humans steering the ship, but the algorithm. It is obvious that this is not the natural, organic way. Should it be? The true crime is that if you’re not even aware of this, when you could and should be. More discussion is needed. Away from the Kardashians. Continue reading “Of interesting wants and relevant needs”
Fiction conquers fact?
Alex Jones is an excellent example of this. He is of course 95% clown and 5% journalist, and yet, I have a feeling that the majority of his followers take his stuff all too seriously… His topics are often serious, but his spin on them is… merely entertaining.

Bad actors, copycats and bots

The hyper social video content creator
Or, the things you simply have to learn to embrace as a video content creator.
In the old days of celluloid, there was no dialogue with the director and the audience, other than one-sidedly, through the movie itself, from director to the audience, until the next one came to theaters. Continue reading “The hyper social video content creator”
Kubrick never taught no one.
Some things can be taught, but those things you most likely already know and have, the obvious, simple and universal stuff. By your natural inclination, general interests and hobbies.
Most things cannot and should not be taught. Unfortunately. That is a problem because; Continue reading “Kubrick never taught no one.”
Money from the advertisers vs. money from the viewers
The advertisers are fickle and disrespectful and all that, but is the audience any less fickle? Any more respectful? (No.)
The question then remains, for you as a content creator; is it easier for you to tolerate five thousand fools with one euro bill or five fools with a thousand euro bill? Continue reading “Money from the advertisers vs. money from the viewers”
Youtube has profound systemic problems- The ship is sinking.
Youtube has been around for many years, and yet it is so new, that many obvious and profound problems materialize only now.
YouTube makes the video content creator responsible of the content of every comment section of every video that he/her has ever published.
