  [[business models | Channel is super interesting. I still have hope for something in that general structure to work. We sold a bundled subscription to New Models, Joshua Citarella and Interdependence, which is the podcast of Matt Dreyer and Holly Herndon. It was one NFT, and it was an unlimited subscription to the podcast content for this NFT. The NFT was a token that unlocks a private RSS. ]] co-publishingI think there is something really promising in being able to co-publish with other entities, to not be dependent on Patreon or any of these larger platforms. There's been a proliferation of different platforms in the time since we first started thinking about Channel. It need not be dependent on a large platform, but the problem is that they often don't help with discovery. In theory, they could. So if there's some way to reconcile those two things, you have a really interesting podcast publishing model on your hands.

  58:02 It would be beautiful to foster collaboration between engineers and people. co-publishingI think that art, humanities and culture should happen before designing that technology. But this is not happening. And we see it, you see at Google all the people that were fired. They tried to integrate academies with the construction of neural networks, but they had to fire them in the end because they were not optimal for the market. It’s a very complex situation and we need to map it to understand what we can do, and maybe we are critical because it’s the only thing that we can do. I would like to be an artist who collaborates with a physicist, and with a lot of funding to understand, for example, memes through big data. But that’s not happening. I don’t know, maybe I would not be critical of technology if I had a place like CERN for artists.

  Irene 15:34 I’m very much aware that my position is still that of a Western white academic, and to me this means I have to constantly challenge the way I think. co-publishingGlissant talks about how every exchange with another, changes the self. That is why it is important to talk to people so that I practice listening, which is a decolonial practice. You know, shut up for once and listen to what people have to say.Currently, I’m working with Ghiwa Sayegh from Kohl Journal, which is a Lebanese open-access publication by anarchist feminists focused on the MENA region. It’s fantastic because I’m learning a lot from how they are approaching the editing process.

  Well, this just grabs my imagination: there is so much going on in that situation. I wanted to find a person from there to write about Tuvalu. You can imagine when a country is that small, it’s quite hard to find someone who is both willing to write and has at least some experience doing so. Certain activist groups are working in that part of the world on climate change, and I started writing to all of them because I had one name at some point, and he didn’t respond anymore. I also reached out to those organizations via Facebook Messenger, and at some point, I got an email from the same person that didn’t reply to me earlier. He said: “You must really want me to write because you’ve now emailed me through three different organizations” — it turned out he worked for all of them, and these are all very small organizations, so he was getting all the emails! So, co-publishingI guess one method is spamming the hell out of people (although it was completely unintentional to be this annoying!). Nowadays though, since the network has grown, it's also through referrals. And there’s the open call, although open calls are also very flawed, but I'm still using them.

  co-publishing[[community | Maybe that's the difference between community and fandom. Fandom is probably the more dominant model online which we mistake for community. You and I both might be fans of the same things for similar reasons. We are not in community with each other but our fandom makes us co-aligned in some ways. With Metalabel I've always found it important to make a distinction to say that this model of releasing work like a label is not to say that you are collaborating, necessarily, but as to say you are co-releasing.
