摘要：In Venture Labor , Neff describes an entrepreneurial subjectivity in which creative workers focus on presenting a portfolio of work to potential employers, positioning themselves not as employees of a company, but as creators of a particular voice or style. In my book, Status Update , I examine the logical outgrowths of the practices examined in Venture Labor , three self-presentation techniques aimed at attracting attention—microcelebrity, self-branding, and live streaming—all representing the leading edge of social media practice. In Status Update , I show how presenting the self became a form of labor that extends venture labor to formulating, packaging, and presenting the self.
