Gnomedex 6.0 Day # 2: Ethan Kaplan
Ethan Kaplan from blackrimglasses.com is on Stage. He is talking about the Music industry
Discussion points:
- Discussion boards and people are SMS’ing their friends
- He has a SHIT job: He does shit, looks for shit, makes shit work and gets people to care about shit
- The NY times is certainly not neccesarily more authoritative than a student ‘Zine
- Bands were used to a one-way street. That paradignm is dead
Ethan is just riffing a brain dump. He is speaking way fast and has an attitude that reminds me of Cory Doctorow from Boing Boing!. He is wearing a white tee shit witth a large target it on it because he comes from the RIAA. I can’t keep up, so I won’t pretend to.
