About this episode

Preston discusses the Attention Economy and its impact on art and authenticity.

In this episode of The Living Artist podcast, Preston talks about the omnipresent "Attention Economy" and all of its many iterations. What is it, and how is it negatively affecting us and our art? Is there even a way to use it to our advantage? Preston talks about a good strategy being to always shoot for authenticity in everything that we do. These are just some of the ideas and questions covered in this episode and we hope that it at least provides you with some food for thought. Enjoy! For more information on Preston M.
