Some interesting thoughts in this piece with the main theme: “in the world of social media, nothing is real”.

Very refreshing to read something thoughtful that connects the various silo-ed categories media usually puts this stuff in. Which is to say that the writer, Denise Ryan, looks at a the doc-moc trend, and explores the way ‘networking’ is changing in the era of social media, and takes a snapshot of the big picture of Peep Culture. 

All that plus commentary from yours truly and a shout out to my upcoming talk at Canzine West!

Of course broadcast television mediates the Peep Culture world but as the documentary suggests it may be a reflection of a larger societal shift regarding identity.
