If you’re male and the music sucks, it sucks.
If you’re female and the music sucks, it sucks.
If you identify as X gender and the music sucks, it sucks.
The workaholics guy that was stoned and dancing around his studio having fun, in my eyes was equally suck.
Let’s not make this a gender thing, it’s clearly not.
And remember when I say the music sucks, it’s just my opinion. You can also think my opinion sucks, my music sucks, my YouTube page sucks, or my attitude sucks. Don’t worry I won’t get upset or feel unsafe because of it.
I conceded above that it would be hypocritical of me to criticize that you want to go negative on people unsolicited AS LONG AS that negativity didnt contribute to making anyone feel unsafe
Eg hate speech. What had been unspoken in the convo until a few posts ago was the controversy surrounding ATC comments being shut down due to rampant misogyny and sexism. Which is what i was referring to; not aesthetic criticism.
Edit: to be clear I took up issue after the most recent couple of videos and their subsequent criticisms were posted. I havent seen any evidence of anyone being sexist / misogynistic.
What if aesthetic criticism makes people FEEL unsafe, will that soon be considered hate speech? This is a road that should be carefully tread, but I don’t believe in policing speech, even hate speech. ATC can do whatever with their channel, but I’m not a fan of that type of censorship. The price of living in a free society.
ThIs is just such a problematic position. Considering how much hate crime has been reignited in the 21st century due to unmoderated social media; considering all the bad ends history has had from it. I think that’s an extremely dangerous position.
Idk man. I guess well address it when it happens. I really dont see that happening.
True but i don’t see how that even comes close to having some criticism towards someone’s performance… This is taking it a notch too far to be frank and way off topic.
They were right to shut down comments
Music industry has many issues around sexism and an imbalance of genders
Internet is full of trolls hating on women DJs and producers solely because they are female
These are facts
Not here though, this is just a ten minute crappy video. Could be a duck sitting there
What is patently clear to me in these vids is that some people can improv very well, and others cannot do so to save their life. This perfectly mirrors what I’ve experienced in performing and doing improv with dozens of people over 20 plus years. I’ve seen some great ATC videos and some where the muso sounds like a typical Saturday morning at Guitar Center. It seems that this FACTMag format is better suited for those that can think on their feet.
I look forward to seeing what we come up with here for our very own 10 minute challenge.
