@RamonPang I think a Djs recognition is one of the biggest factors. If you personally consider the Dj good, theres more chances you'll listen to the mix just because you think it will be an interesting listening experience. Also, because of this, you might discover some cool tracks

Recién veo el video de Rodl Glide de @0PN y me pareció una verdadera genialidad. Se siente, al mismo tiempo, meticulosamente planeado y deliberadamente sin cuidado.

Surreal tv commercials from the 90's and early 00's are my favorite type of advertising

Here’s an utterly insane Adidas ad, directed by David Lynch in 1993

Agency > Intelligence
I had this intuitively wrong for decades, I think due to a pervasive cultural veneration of intelligence, various entertainment/media, obsession with IQ etc. Agency is significantly more powerful and significantly more scarce. Are you hiring for agency? Are we educating for agency? Are you acting as if you had 10X agency?
Grok explanation is ~close:
“Agency, as a personality trait, refers to an individual's capacity to take initiative, make decisions, and exert control over their actions and environment. It’s about being proactive rather than reactive—someone with high agency doesn’t just let life happen to them; they shape it. Think of it as a blend of self-efficacy, determination, and a sense of ownership over one’s path.
People with strong agency tend to set goals and pursue them with confidence, even in the face of obstacles. They’re the type to say, “I’ll figure it out,” and then actually do it. On the flip side, someone low in agency might feel more like a passenger in their own life, waiting for external forces—like luck, other people, or circumstances—to dictate what happens next.
It’s not quite the same as assertiveness or ambition, though it can overlap. Agency is quieter, more internal—it’s the belief that you *can* act, paired with the will to follow through. Psychologists often tie it to concepts like locus of control: high-agency folks lean toward an internal locus, feeling they steer their fate, while low-agency folks might lean external, seeing life as something that happens *to* them.”

Intelligence is on tap now so agency is even more important

Durante sus 20 años de existencia he asistido a muchas, casi todas, las ediciones del festival. Personalmente, encuentro el nuevo formato de @MUTEKMX HORRENDO... se siente diseñado para capitali$ar y no para mejorar la experiencia del público
