Video Vortex

On the first article “The Art of Watching Databases” by Geert Lovink, he talks about how YouTube has changed a lot of people’s lives and attitudes online. He also mentions that a lot of people waste a lot of their time on it rather than reading a book or doing other things.

On the second article “The Practice of Everyday Media Life” by Lev Manovich, he talks more about how things turn into what they are today along with the strategies used and considered for corporations like YouTube.

Both, Geert Lovink and Lev Manovich agree on the fact that YouTube has helped in the change from mass consumption to mass production and that now there are more ways for people to sell their image online.
