Best Sellers Sell the Best Because They’re Best Sellers

source: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/09/19/books/penguin-random-house-madeline-mcintosh.html

We have the biggest list of #books, we have access to the most data, so we could have a very accurate view on a daily basis of how #consumer demand was shifting. We could see right away when #people were grabbing the sourdough bread book, or the birding book, or the inspirational #book, or the book that put this moment in the context of #history.

...

algorithmic #marketplace that serves up mostly the hits, driving a #cycle so self-fulfilling it’s nearly tautological: Best sellers sell the best because they are best sellers.

Unfortunately, marketing in its profit mania is mentally unable to recognize that in this case only books are written for the #algorithm. Similar to YouTube, where the big ones only produce videos on topics that are currently trending. This leads to a one-size-fits-all approach that kills any creativity and prevents new upcoming creative thinkers from evolving at all. These new thinkers could improve the world, but they have too few followers to be detected by the algorithm.

Best Sellers Sell the Best Because They’re Best Sellers (Published 2020)

Publishing is becoming a winner-take-all game. Nobody dominates it like Madeline McIntosh and Penguin Random House.

Really interesting article on the #Burningman crews discussing measures to avoing corruption of the free and creative spirits culture by soul crushing consumerism.

I say right on #burners right on time and right on the subject. Great points and great measures although also read the posts for additional well thought out actions.

... und heute besuchte mich mal eine Sichelschrecke und ich muss sagen es war ein sehr angenehmer Besuch. Da die Schrecke auch ständig das rechte Bein austreckte ging ich zuerst davon aus, dass sie ein paar Gymnastikübungen auf meinem Finger absolvieren wollte. Tatsache aber wird wohl sein, dass es eine Drohgebärde war wie auch bei vielen anderen Insekten, wie Bienen, Hummeln und Käfern :-)
