"After The Creator Economy" explores constructive alternatives for the ways we produce, distribute, and monetize creative work online.
Co-edited by Austin Robey (Metalabel) and Severin Matusek (co—matter), this release preserves and digitally reissues the zine
In 2018, The Creative Independent published our first zine, featuring the emotional and practical wisdom of Philip Glass, Yumna Al-Arashi, Taja Cheek, and others on how to make a living as an artist. This is a digital edition of that work.
Collect the original essay, ideas, and research that inspired Metalabel, including:
— Unpublished research and thinking from May 2021 — The initial manifesto, first published in February 2022 — Further research, first published in October 2022
Preserved and collectible as a new media archive for the first time
