It argues that platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and Snapchat reduce independent control, limit creative layout features, and rely on targeted ads that shape what people see and desire. Using concepts like “Soma,” the “hedonic treadmill,” and “filter bubbles,” it frames likes and uploads as modern compulsions while warning that dependence on third-party networks can erase access to one’s work.","PHOTOGRAPHY ENTREPRENEURSHIP MANUAL BY ERIC  \nKIM  \nPREFACE . BRAVE NEW WORLD OF PHOTOGRAPHY  \nDear friend,  \nI'm very afraid for the future of photography and humanity.  \nI'm also very hopeful.  \nOkay first of all, some trends I'm seeing:  \nLess creative freedom  \nSo, there are really any more independent photography bloggers. Rather, we are all on Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr, Flickr, or some social media platform .  \nThe problem: we have less creative freedom .  \nFor example, on Instagram you cannot change the order of your images. New photos will always show up on top. You cannot add hyperlinks in your posts.  \nOn Facebook: when people see your photos in their stream, they will also see advertisements. You cannot block advertisements on your Facebook photos.  \nI think photography blogs are the answer. Register on 1and1 .com and install [Wordpress.org. The](Wordpress.org. The) benefit of using a wordpress photography blogging platform:  \nyou own your content. And you can control whether you put on advertisements or not. You can easily mass import and export content.  \nYou can mix visuals with text, or audio or video.  \nNot only that, but realize- -Instagram is owned by Facebook, and  \nFacebook/Instagram are advertising platforms. Facebook and Instagram, Snapchat and all these other “free\" companies are companies. Their purpose is to  \nmake money. And how do they make money? By delivering you content-tailored advertisements, based on your personal browsing behavior, what you \"like\", what you comment on, etc.  \nSo on one hand I love social media- - it connects us. People who are poor and cannot afford to pay for their own website is empowered.  \nYet, we are also trapped. To be honest, you are kind of at a slight disadvantage if you're not on Facebook or Instagram .  \nEven scarier: the only real photo sharing networks in existence now is Facebook and Instagram (same company) . Which means, there is a monopoly of images on just one platform . Which means, Facebook can eventually manipulate the images we are being delivered through their “News feed algorithm”. For further reading, read the book “The filter bubble”--the basic concept that we are becoming tunnel-visioned in terms of what is being fed us in our news feeds. So liberals will only see pro-liberal news, and conservatives will only see pro-conservative news. It is a lot of navel-gazing, which prevents us from seeing a diversity of opinions, ideas, and thoughts.  \nSOMA  \nIn Aldous Huxley's book “Brave New World”- -he envisioned a world where everyone was “happy”, because everyone took “Soma”- - imagine a mix between ecstasy and weed, with no downsides. People wouldn't care that the world was going to shit, because everyone “felt good”.  \nToday's world, our photography soma is the likes we get on Facebook, Instagram, and the “snaps”we get on Snapchat, and messages on What's app, Facebook Messenger, or anything else in our social media streams.  \nAbove all, our soma is advertising. The only reason the capitalistic engine keeps running: we keep having desires to fulfill. We keep working at our shitty jobs, just so we can buy that new Range Rover, that new Hermes bag, or that new Giuseppe shoe.  \nAs photographers, many of us have good jobs. Yet, we are stuck in golden cubicle prisons. We think if we just bought that new Leica or digital camera, we would have more freedom, to travel, wander, be a nomad, and make photos.  \nSad reality: ain't no camera gonna buy your freedom .  \nHedonic Treadmill  \nHedonism: feeling good. Treadmill: something that keeps on going faster.  \nWe buy a new Leica, and it is exciting for a week. Then the effect wears off. We buy a Hasselblad, and it is exciting for a week. Then the effect wears off. We buy a Phase One, and the same happens.  \nIt happens with everything- -new phones, tablets, laptops, desktops, cars, pornography, movies, tv shows, YouTube shows, video games, etc.  \nSocial media too: you can never have “enough” followers.
