Abstract

This chapter begins by laying out the confusing artists face as they try to make sense of the new media landscape. It begins with a history of music as a profession, focusing on how it moved from being seen as a participatory practice to a commodified one, separating musicians from audiences as it did, and changing how they related to their audiences. It discusses the rise and fall of major record labels and the shift to the digital. It argues that as the music industry has become decentralized, musicians have had to do more of the work for themselves. It closes with an analysis of the kinds of entrepreneurial and relational skills musicians need in this new environment.
音乐作为商品
本章首先列出了艺术家们在试图理解新媒体景观时所面临的困惑。它从音乐作为一种职业的历史开始,重点关注它是如何从被视为一种参与性的实践转变为一种商品化的实践,将音乐家与听众分开,并改变他们与听众的关系。它讨论了主要唱片公司的兴衰以及向数字音乐的转变。它认为,随着音乐产业的分散化,音乐家不得不为自己做更多的工作。它最后分析了音乐家在这种新环境中需要的创业和关系技能。
