A Influência das métricas de desempenho sobre músicos – o artista e o prisma
Palavras-chave:
artistaResumo
This chapter focuses on a particular and highly prevalent form of data – online performance metrics. Feedback in the form of performance metrics challenge how music artists see themselves, and how others see them. In turn, such metrics can profoundly influence how artists produce and release music. This chapter asks; how can we conceptualize the influence that performance metrics have on music artists? Drawing on interviews that investigates the relationship music artists have with their metrics, this chapter employs the analogy of the ‘prism’ to nuance our understanding of the influence that metrics have on musicians. Prisms both refract and reflect light: I argue that this analogy helps us to better understand the complex and contingent influence of performance metrics on musicians.
