What happens when creativity is forced to serve the machine? As capitalism demands productivity and social media rewards visibility, the line between art and content is questioned.
In this episode of Art is the New Wall Street, host, Morgan Short sits down with Noah Lekas, a writer and musician, to explore how the pressures of the job market and industry shifts are reshaping creativity.
We get real about what it means to create in a society driven by metrics, social media likes, and the never-ending pressure to be 'marketable.' Noah shares his personal journey, from going viral on LinkedIn to grappling with the advancements of AI.
We cover:
- The harsh reality of making a living as a creative in today's job market
- Why so many creatives find themselves in the field of marketing and how the industry is changing
- The constant push and pull between creating for passion versus creating for an audience or algorithm
- What happens to the world when we lose artistic talent
- How Noah transformed his poetry into multiple forms of art
- The burnout, the breakthroughs, and the hard-earned lessons along the way
What does it take to keep your creative fire alive? And at what cost?
