The Solution

The social web is an opportunity for the public to take back control over what gets cultural attention. To end the outsized influence of money over what information, ideas and art is widely known and discussed. What people are reading, watching and listening to. To let the best stuff go viral.

To make that happen, we need to build a lot of new technology but also change some unhelpful norms. We need to be welcoming to as many people as possible. We need to up our game as critical media consumers and spreaders.
