Ted Gioia's "Aesthetics of Slop" is a takedown of modern culture's love affair with half assed disposable junk. Art, music, literature, once the domains of skill & effort, have been overrun by laziness masquerading as authenticity. Why polish your craft when algo driven mediocrity gets more clicks?

This thread will be the counterpart to #Slop, a manifesto if you will: Aesthetics of Grit
