Big Table Episode 10: William Deresiewicz
from Big Table Hosted by William Deresiewicz, J.C. Gabel
The Interview William Deresiewicz documents “how creators are struggling to survive in the age of billionaires and big tech,” which is the subtitle of his masterful new book, The Death of the Artist (Henry Holt). This book is a well-written examination of the creative economy, and how it has been hollowed out and de-monetized by tech spin and greed; the toxic nonsense otherwise known as “the gig economy,” Unlike most takedowns of these 21st Century post-digital-age doldrums, The Death of the Artist has some prescriptive advice and is rooted in reality-bites pragmatism. The Reading Deresiewicz reads from The Death of the Artist. Music by Languis
