The Influence of Social Media on Cultural Production
The chapter examines how social media affects cultural production, turning individuals into commodities and reducing the public sphere to a simulated space. It discusses the impact of algorithms, self-commodification, and the darkest aspects of our culture displayed on these platforms. The chapter also critiques the Frankfurt School's understanding of mass culture and argues for the partial autonomy of artists working within mass culture.
