Hey Cooper,

I really enjoyed reading about you and your Facebook experience. The section about Self Representation as an Artist was very eye-opening. Social media is a very large marketing tactic for musicians wanting to share their music across the globe. One reason being it is free, and another is the ability for the artist to tailor the message to their liking, and finally the overall portrayal of the artist’s image is controlled by whoever is running the social media account. Also, I think that is really cool that your artist page is verified on Facebook!

It seems to me Facebook is much more of tool than a social network for you, making connections to further your music endeavors. For example, your connection with Donovan Frankenreiter seems like a very special experience, and it happened because of Facebook.

In contrast with me, I use Facebook to connect with family and friends, and much less using it as a marketing tool. Keeping in touch is a big reason why I have kept my personal Facebook. If it were to become obsolete or those around me stopped using the service, I also would stop using it. In my opinion, these sites should continue to remain a secondary form of communication.

Hearing you say that eventually you plan on deleting your personal Facebook and extending it only to your fan page is not surprising. If you have too many accounts for people to reach you at, some may question the legitimacy of each separate profile, rather than having one profile that is verified for all to see (like you do).

I believe you did a very good job on your Facebook avatar. It does a great job depicting how you portray your real life through your social media experiences, and how you attempt to keep your personal life off of social media. The theme of privacy is very apparent in your piece and you put forth a great effort explaining your standing on Facebook. If I were to critique one thing, it would be varying the sentence length and adding punctuation to make it flow better. These however, are minor edits, and do not take away from the quality! Nice job!
