Stream-of-Thought Writing Details

1. I have always loved media and have had a desire to emulate the things I consumed when I was younger, whether that be video content, music or video games.

2. I began making online video content in 2013 as a means of keeping myself creatively occupied. In many regards, my continued experience with making this content has negatively impacted my self-image in ways that force me to constantly improve myself.

3. In 2014, I began writing my own music despite never having any formal music training. I would always try to experiment with sounds and ideas until I could learn musical concepts on my own.

She delves into these new conditions of circulationism and attempts to understand and reflect on its potential and impasses.

Response to 'Is the Internet Dead?'

Steyrl describes an interesting perspective of the way the internet is recognized.
