Took the news of the closure of the magazine ArtChronika.

        More detailed information yet. So it's true or not even a question.
    Let's say the truth, then there is an additional series of questions:
    - This is bad or no?
    It might seem a strange question, and the answer on the surface - of course bad, because at least affected employees - the dismissal, finding a new place, etc. Then - a fading source of information is also not good for readers.
    Still, I think a legitimate question and if in sympathy with the staff, aside from this, the answer does not seem so obvious ...
   - This is a problem specific business magazine or a symptom of something bigger?
    And here's an interesting question, if the problem is the business model of a particular magazine, it is interesting to a small circle of people involved in the publishing business and generally understandable. Paper edition with the advent of the internet slowly dying and this process is irreversible.
    If, however, along with the "paper" is still a problem and symptom, the question of what?
    - The crisis of art in general?
    - The crisis of Russian art?
    - The crisis in the country, as well as art until the pile is the problem?
    - Crisis Communications?
    This question requires some explanation: due to the advent of the internet the flow of information to our head falls with great force. it looked good, but suddenly this thread turned into noise, through which nothing can bring. The old links are dead, and the new line up just barely, and only about the money, do not say anything.

    Offhand until all the issues - wait.
    Oh come while writing some of the details are not very reliable sources: That decision was unexpected for the editorial board, one person (and clear by whom, call it SB) and a question for the business model. If funding is not dependent on income (the magazine was unprofitable), then it is clear - tired and all.
    But the rest of the questions in force.

Suspended publication of the journals "TV Park" and "Cinema Park"
 

April 1, 2013

Issue of TV Guide "TV Park" and the film magazine "Cinema Park" suspended for the revision of the concept of media. This is reported by "Izvestia" referring to the publisher of magazines Nicholas Blackfeet.

Chernonog noted that the materials needed rebranded as EPG "TV Park", for example, is unchanged for 19 years. He added that although some investors have already shown interest publications, it is not known whether the magazine will continue to come out.

According to Nikolai Blackfeet, employees of JSC "Media Park", which includes magazines, know about the suspension of production of magazines and may choose to remain in their company or not. Chernonog added that care would be resolved peacefully and that he is ready to help journalists with employment.

TV Guide "TV Park" has been published since 1994. The magazine was published weekly with a circulation of 190,000 copies. At the same time, according to TNS Russia, the average audience of the magazine in Russia amounted to 1.47 million, while in Moscow - 706,000 people. Among the weekly magazine "TV Park" took 12th place in the country. The monthly magazine "Cinema Park" has a circulation of 75,000, an audience it reached 140,000 people.

Konstantin, We are witnessing the beginning of a much more global than it may seem at first glance. There is a space-time removal of metaphysics from the physical materiality. In other words, through dozens /hundreds of years will be important, only the information shown only said, without taking into account the "who, what, where, when, due to what ..." said, showed. Without a doubt, publishers and galleries will strongly resist such a development direction. But this is the divine evolution. Wither away "paper", including money, other material will be reduced to a minimum, delivering originality, humanity will be seen as the next stage in the development of living organisms ... Just livelihoods super Misti is dependent on people as well as the livelihood of the people is now dependent on the plant and animal worlds. Verbal information that is being said, has not paid, and the replication of books and articles have already been rolled (download on demand) ... Yes, and you feel it all in terms of sales.

In a word - transformation. Remember when I showed the picture "Leo /Hercules"? http://forum.artinvestment.ru/album....ctureid=121251

here called openly:

leaving only the paper version
 

from the release :

" Magazine publisher " ArtChronika " Shalva Breus said that the magazine" ArtChronika " continues to work. Edition of the printed format switches to an electronic version .
The editorial staff will work either in the electronic version of the magazine , or leave the project by agreement with the payment of compensation.
On further steps to develop the project on-line will be announced later. "

Trading networks require a significant amount " of the online presence ," is beyond their margin of 30-50 %to the price of the manufacturer .
In order to somehow keep publishers to gain advertising, due to the large amount of advertising buyer does not want to pay the price for 10%of the necessary and interesting information (the rest is advertising or pictures , glamor ) . Advertisers also see that the publication of bad buy , and do not extend the contract . The circle is closed .
 Cruel grin capitalism devoured magazine <! - ~ 10 ~ ->

Ate a paper format .
And he really did not need it. The electronic form is not too difficult to read .

L-ana64110, alas , the same problem in the network , many electronic versions of newspapers are so overwhelmed by advertising that eats all traffic users. In the search engines is no longer possible to find the right information , the first couple of pages of search results , paid for by , te show is not what you need and what you want to sell. I've now read only sites where ads at a minimum , such as Heathcliff , and a thread of Moskovsky Komsomolets I even Moscow computer downloads are delayed , so I do not come back .

Excessive greed can destroy any topic.

Why would such a conclusion?

It is unlikely that you represent the costs and revenues of sites, with pay for information on the Internet, I'm sure not ready.

So the argument about greed need to start with ourselves.
