Re: [microsound] marketing is manipulation

It depends on what you define as manipulation. I think that marketing
is fine, and necessary if you want to communicate anything to anyone.

As artists, how can we share our work through performance or
recordings if we don't market them in some way?

My prior post was just to point out that there's a tad bit of
cognitive dissonance coming from a position that says "marketing is
manipulation," but then also chooses to market his own works on a
mailing list. Bold statements like that are great eyeball grabbers,
but usually fall flat under any kind of analysis.
