A Switch From Code to Law

If you feel hopeless and out of options, stop to check whether you can switch directions and still climb gradient. You could try something commercial, founding band camp and offering artists a better shake. Or legal, like reforming copyright reversion rights so artists can exercise leverage over monopolistic entertainment companies. Each tactic opens space for others. This also provides a new gloss on critiques of technological solutionism, consumerism, procedureism and political correctness. None of these tactics on their own will address complex, deep rooted social problems. But each represents a potential pathway that we can ascend when the other routes are blocked.
