I had a nice chat with a nice woman living in Berlin. I was asking question about the perception of city and media. I said that you theoretically don’t need any big city, unless you can satisfy your need via media (not only print and web, but also physical media like concerts etc..). That women agreed that reading a magazine can generate an feeing of “urbanity” inside you while sitting in a chair at home. Her strategy of not getting lost in Berlin is: not reading thouse magazines too often and simply stay at home.

What about the web? I completely lost the overview. E.g. the netlabel scene. There are so many netlabels, so many blogs writing about music and netmusic. Where is the starting point? Where is the center? Where the orientations signs? In which direction all this moves? What strategies do we have to navigate in this richness?
