Lost Ate My Life ebook
Lost Ate my Life! is not the authors self-referential statement. Instead, it is the collective cry of the hardened fan base for ABCs pop-culture phenomenon. The book has two central ideas: first, that the creators of Lostcreated a shift in the thinking of online communities, effectively removing the barrier between the artists and the patrons by hosting one of the largest officially sponsored independent discussion forums in history. Lostbloggers became important celebrities amongst the fan bases, some fans found themselves drawn into the inner circle, and the network began making decisions based on ebb and flow of fan sentiment.Interwoven with the story of the fandom is the examination of Losts story itself: its archetypal themes, and its evolution from bordering on the high-concept cash in it was intended to be, to the high art mixture of philosophy, drama, redemption, science, and faith. What is it in the formula of Lostthat speaks to our collective unconscious so well that millions of fans are easily able to endure such mammoth leaps of suspension-of-disbelief?The books story is told by two members of the fan community who witnessed the spread and impact of the fandom from the inside, eventually becoming insiders to different degrees themselves; one, Amy, deep within the inner sanctum of Lostlabs, the other, Jon, ascending from the world of blogging to the world of professional media.
