"They have been interpellated by audience metrics; their subjective experience already takes audience reactions into account."

This is great. I think there's a body of research to be done regarding the creation of self in the age of social media. (Not just creators but everyone)

> creation of self in the age of social media

That's a large part of the field of Cyberpsychology, and of course there's quite a body of research already.

Except that it's "interpolated".

[gertrunde]

Perhaps not:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpellation

(Specifically the top item, "the process by which we encounter a culture's or ideology's values and internalize them").

Edit: Doh! On checking the article, that's even the same link the author embedded!

No, it's "interpellated", i.e. 'brought into being'.

[add-sub-mul-div]

That was my first instinct, too, but instead of reflexively posting about it I double checked and found I was wrong and learned something new.

I sit enlightened, although I don't like the word much.

I suspect they’re using the second definition of the word (per Google):

PHILOSOPHY (of an ideology or discourse) bring into being or give identity to (an individual or category).

—-

I read it as saying the audience and their reaction to the content is what gives the “creator” their identity.

[dmd]

No, that's inserting a value. Interpellation is the international police organization popularized by Carmen Sandiego.

[thfuran]

No, that's a different word that doesn't work in that context.
