“WHAT WE WANT IS FREE (and also not indirectly creating value and data for corporations)” co-authore
“WHAT WE WANT IS FREE (and also not indirectly creating value and data for corporations)” co-authored by Liz Pelly, Chris Lee, and Dorothy Howard for issue 61 of The Media, the Immaterial Digital Labor Issue. “When do ‘likes’ become labor? When is that labor directly at odds with our politics? To what extent is it privileged to care? If there can be said to be a ‘digital divide’ in punk, it might look like this: Should punks learn from the conversation surrounding digital immaterial labor and rethink the way labor politics inform DIY communities? Or should the digital labor activists look to punk for examples of how truly community-oriented landscapes can pool resources to provide non-commercial space for cultural exchange, and then harness social media to bolster our own political agendas?” -- source link
