Jonathan Taplin, former road manager for The Band, has done it all. He set up the equipment for Dylan's electric set at Newport in ‘65 (“the soundcheck lasted ten minutes”) and was production manager for Dylan and The Band at the Guthrie Tribute in '68. He organised the groundbreaking Concert For Bangladesh and produced the concert and film of The Last Waltz. Oh, and he was responsible for Martin Scorsese's Mean Streets getting made. Jon “was brought into the circle” by Albert Grossman (“after Bob left and Janis died, Albert got his heart broken”). He saw “all the junkie signs” when he met Keith Richards in the South of France and left Rock behind when he saw what drugs were doing to his friends and the music he loved. He passionately blames illegal Napster downloads for Levon Helm's financial problems (“the record world dropped off a cliff”). With a cast list including Scorsese, Clapton, Robertson and Dylan (“Bob was a really good teacher”), Jonathan Taplin tells us definitively where it was at. Jonathan Taplin is a writer, film producer and scholar. He began his entertainment career as tour manager for the Jim Kweskin Jug Band and organised Bob Dylan and The Band's appearance at the Isle of Wight Festival. Between 1973 and 1996, Taplin produced many television documentaries and feature films including Under Fire and To Die For. His films were nominated for Oscars and Golden Globes and chosen for The Cannes Film Festival five times. His book “Move Fast And Break Things” (2017) is subtitled “How Facebook, Google and Amazon Cornered Culture and Undermined Democracy”. His latest book “The Magic Years” (2021) is about the rock ‘n' roll side of his life. Jon is the Director Emeritus of the Annenberg Innovation Lab at the University of Southern California.

Apple, Amazon, Facebook, Microsoft and Google – it's become nearly impossible to live in the modern world without the services of these five companies. In this episode of The Agenda Podcast, Stephen Cole looks at what sets Big Tech apart from other digital platforms and why it's now facing unprecedented levels of scrutiny and calls for regulation.First he speaks to Stephen Scheeler, former Facebook CEO for Australia and New Zealand, who explains whether Australia's landmark media law will set a precedent for other countries hoping to force Big Tech to pay for journalism [00:55].Also on the show is Jonathan Taplin, author of Move Fast and Break Things: How Facebook, Google, and Amazon Cornered Culture and Undermined Democracy [06:33]. Having worked with the likes of Martin Scorsese and Bob Dylan, Taplin explains the cultural impact of allowing platforms like YouTube to expand without proper regulation.Finally Stephen speaks to two veteran tech journalists – Kate Russell and Wired magazine's Editor-At-Large Stephen Levy – about who we can trust with our data and how to regulate Big Tech without impinging on innovation [13:08].

Ever wonder why Silicon Valley seems omnipotent in every arena, not only in technology and business but also in government, public policy, academia, the media and more? We are in an unprecedented age, where a few powerful technology companies have bent the internet to serve their monopolistic and libertarian goals. As tech executives accrue their fortunes, individual artists and content creators have been abandoned by platforms built upon the spoils of copyright infringement. Few realize how entwined big technology and Washington are or the impact this has for small businesses and individual workers. In the past, businesses built on addiction and erosion of customer privacy have been regulated, taxed and brought in line due to consumer demands and concerns from public health and government watchdogs. Today, Google, Facebook, Amazon, YouTube and the like have spun out of control right under our fingertips.

Google. Amazon. Facebook. The modern world is defined by vast digital monopolies turning ever-larger profits. Those of us who consume the content that feeds them are farmed for the purposes of being sold ever more products and advertising. Those that create the content – the artists, writers and musicians – are finding they can no longer survive in this unforgiving economic landscape. But it didn't have to be this way. In Move Fast and Break Things, Jonathan Taplin offers a succinct and powerful history of how online life began to be shaped around the values of the entrepreneurs like Peter Thiel and Larry Page who founded these all-powerful companies. Their unprecedented growth came at the heavy cost of tolerating piracy of books, music and film, while at the same time promoting opaque business practices and subordinating the privacy of individual users to create the surveillance marketing monoculture in which we now live. It is the story of a massive reallocation of revenue in which $50 billion a year has moved from the creators and owners of content to the monopoly platforms. With this reallocation of money comes a shift in power. Google, Facebook and Amazon now enjoy political power on par with Big Oil and Big Pharma, which in part explains how such a tremendous shift in revenues from creators to platforms could have been achieved and why it has gone unchallenged for so long. And if you think that's got nothing to do with you, their next move is to come after your jobs. Move Fast and Break Things is a call to arms, to say that is enough is enough and to demand that we do everything in our power to create a different future. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/pbliving/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pbliving/support

Jonathan Taplin has found a unique and historic niche in the arts, in academia and in the public sphere. As a folk and blues fan in the early ‘60s, he watched performances by singers like Doc Watson, Muddy Waters, Mississippi John Hurt, Skip James, and Son House.Shortly after graduating from Princeton, Taplin became the road manager for Bob Dylan and the Band, touring the world with a perspective few others have had. Taplin had the rare opportunity to witness Dylan and The Band jam after hours with The Beatles, Neil Young, and many others.He later began his film production career with Martin Scorsese’s “Mean Streets,” and has since produced such documentaries as Scorsese and The Band’s “The Last Waltz.”Taplin later became a professor at USC’s Annenberg School of Communication, and is the Annenberg Innovation Lab Director Emeritus. He has also been a vice president of media mergers and acquisitions at Merrill Lynch, and founded the pioneering video-on-demand company Intertainer.In this interview, Taplin talks about his friendship with The Band’s Levon Helm as a jumping-off point for discussing the challenges that musicians face in making money in the age of YouTube. He also discusses his recent book “Move Fast and Break Things: How Facebook, Google, and Amazon Cornered Culture and Undermined Democracy,” in which he argues that mega-companies are crushing the music business and narrowing the number of news sources available to people. He also talks about how average citizens are having more effect on how online corporations self-regulate through demanding advertisement boycotts - the “power of consumer communications”. His memoir, “The Magic Years: Scenes From a Rock-and-Roll Life,” will be released in March of 2021.

Gustavo Cardoso é professor catedrático e investigador de Media e Sociedade no ISCTE. O tema é um dos mais desafiantes dos nossos tempos: os desafios actuais e o futuro do jornalismo. Foi uma excelente conversa e, para mim, também uma óptima maneira para explorar melhor este tema, porque participei recentemente num colóquio no CCB precisamente sobre o futuro do jornalismo. E porque é que o tema é tão importante? Porque o jornalismo é essencial à Democracia. E porque os jornais (e outros media) sofreram nos últimos anos quase uma de tempestade perfeita: a internet tornou uma série de informação disponível de forma gratuita, ao mesmo tempo que tirou aos jornais grande parte das receitas de publicidade, que agora estão nas mãos de gigantes como a Google e o Facebook. Ao mesmo tempo, do lado dos utilizadores, diminuiu a nossa predisposição para pagar e mudou a maneira como olhamos para a própria informação jornalística. Temos hoje mais e, talvez, melhor jornalismo, mas é cada vez mais difícil separar o trigo do joio. Ao mesmo tempo, estas mudanças afectaram os modelos de negócio dos jornais, o que, por seu lado, penaliza o próprio produto e afecta o papel dos media enquanto Quarto Poder. Conversámos, então, sobre vários aspectos deste tema: fake news e propaganda, modelo de negócio dos jornais, o papel dos privados e o papel do Estado, a importância do jornalismo para a democracia, a necessidade de reinventar o jornalismo. Falámos também das especificidades do mercado dos jornais em Portugal, como a particularidade (que a mim me parece um mau sinal) de quase todos os nossos jornais terem um posicionamento político supostamente ao centro.

My May 2nd 2018 conversation with JONATHAN TAPLIN, Director Emeritus of the USC Annenberg Innovation Lab, former tour manager for Bob Dylan and The Band, producer of films including Scorsese’s MEAN STREETS. His book, MOVE FAST AND BREAK THINGs: How Facebook, Google and Amazon Cornered Culture and Undermined Democracy comes out in paperback in June. (jontaplin.com)

Bennet Kelley speaks with the author of Move Fast and Break Things: How Facebook, Google, and Amazon Cornered Culture and Undermined Democracy, Jonathan Taplin . Taplin is the Director Emeritus of the USC Annenberg Innovation Lab, and a former tour manager for Bob Dylan and The Band, as well as a film producer for Martin Scorsese. An expert in digital media entertainment, Taplin is a member of the Academy Of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and sits on the California Broadband Taskforce and Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti's Council on Technology and Innovation. 

Jonathan Taplin is Director Emeritus of the Annenberg Innovation Lab at the University of Southern California. he was a Professor at the USC Annenberg School from 2003-2016. Taplin's areas of specialization are in international communication management and the field of digital media entertainment. Taplin began his entertainment career in 1969 as Tour Manager for Bob Dylan and The Band. In 1973 he produced Martin Scorsese's first feature film, Mean Streets, which was selected for the Cannes Film Festival. Between 1974 and 1996, Taplin produced 26 hours of television documentaries (including The Prize and Cadillac Desert for PBS) and 12 feature films including The Last Waltz, Until The End of the World, Under Fire and To Die For. His films were nominated for Oscar and Golden Globe awards and chosen for The Cannes Film Festival five times. (via jontaplin.com) Today, Jon talks about his new book, Move Fast and Break Things: How Google, Facebook and Amazon Cornered Culture and Undermined Democracy. It tells the story of how the Internet took a wrong turn from its early days as a source for innovation and wealth for individual creators and entrepreneurs, becoming a highly centralized set of monopolies and oligopolies that suck $50 billion a year in income away from content creators. This has hollowed out whole industries, leaving both producers and consumers less well off both economically and artistically. We discuss some of the history of the Net that led to this point, and some of the possible remedies for the problems we face.  

Ferris talks about his new collection of stories, and Jonathan Taplin discusses “Move Fast and Break Things: How Facebook, Google, and Amazon Cornered Culture and Undermined Democracy.”

  The dream of a democratic internet has become a dystopia of unregulated monopolies. Creators are being devastated - deprived of their income and control by a handful of tech behemoths. That's the analysis of Jonathan Taplin in the new book MOVE FAST AND BREAK THINGS: How Facebook, Google, and Amazon Cornered Culture and Undermined Democracy. Taplin is director emeritus of the Annenberg Innovation Lab at the University of Southern California. He's had a wide-ranging career that began in the 1960s as road manager for Bob Dylan and The Band, movie producer for Martin Scorsese, and - as a consequence - he was the executive producer of The Last Waltz, the landmark 1976 concert film documenting the final show by that The Band. Our conversation took place before a live audience at Nashville's City Winery in March 2017 as part of a book tour stop presented by Nashville's Who Knew speaker series. Taplin outlines his case against Google, Facebook and Apple and offers some ideas to tilt the playing field back toward the interests of creators. Also in this hour, an unaired interview with Col. Bruce Hampton and a historic return to the Ryman Auditorium by Emmylou Harris.
