Re-vlog :: Media Nipple on 49Media Podcast
Holland Wilde is a cultural farmer and maker of the videoblog site "Media Nipple" whose motto is "nipples sell everything."
In the linked post - one of his recent best - he examines the recent media trend of demonizing nature. Holland says:Television must make money. And one of the very best ways to attract viewer eyeballs is to create fear. This makes Nature a perfect target for exploitation. In a mediated world, humans must fear all that is natural.
Holland collects and shares moving images from the MSM for analysis and shows us where the media's headed. Consuming the soon-to-be Doctor Wilde's media excerpts is an effective antedote to propaganda and highly recommended.
In the media enclosure, Chris Ritke of 49Media interviews Holland on the what's and why's of the necessity of Cultural Farming. Chris is a fine interviewer. I know from experience.

Holy cow Jan - this just popped up in my google alerts (yeah, I'll admit it) - thanks for the nice words. And yes, I am a big fan of Holland - as I am of you.
ReplyDeleteAs for my interviews - I'm doing this new thing on 49sparks.com, but FOCUSED (darn it) on designers, illustrators etc - it's sooo much fun meeting and speaking with so many cool people, again. And now I'm doing more and more video - it really is more compelling, what should I say.
Yeah. Thought you must have *something in place for tracking talk about 49Media at least :)
ReplyDeleteHehehe. Devious way of saying "Hello" to you. Yes, I admit it.
Will check out your new http://49sparks.com endeavor thoroughly in due course, but I did see the "Adult Toys" video. And that totally rocked.
