I’d call it hypoculture. Though there’s a frenetic abundance of activity through algorithms I find very little that moves the soul. An absence of what I perceive as culture. Algorithms have homogenized everything. But what makes me happy is to see underprivileged kids singing and dancing on Ticktock. They don’t need a stage baby, to be superstars! Needless to say, there’s much I find distasteful and crass on ticktock etc. but there’s no going back. This is the direction humankind is taking.

Personally speaking I’m convinced we are a Truman Show.
