Don't call it a comeback
Monday, 8 October, 2018
Tom was in Montréal the other day for a conference and we recorded a podcast episode reviewing what has happened in the two years that have passed since the last episode. In this episode we talk about, amongst other things: How fine arts and literary fiction projects are generally more successful than software projects as they are more likely to achieve what they aimed to achieve than software. The industry cites ‘commercial viability’ without actually looking at what’s commercially viable. The gap between what people clearly want and what is being provided. How the publishing industry should be doing more experimentation that’s explicitly targeted at the mainstream. How next to nothing has changed in two years. Value and business models. People are hungry for new and interesting things. Warning! Iffy acoustics and we are well out of practice at this podcast thing.
