1. Headless Brands - Other Internet (Toby Shorin, Laura Lotti, Sam Hart, Bryan Lehrer)
   Deep, thought-provoking ideas on brand in the modern decentralized age.

   A brand is a cultural phenomenon that emerges only when these things come into contact with people. A brand lives in the minds of those who are aware of it.

   As a brand grows, it becomes more than a set of first impressions and associations. Its reputation precedes it. As impressions are shared across users and consumers, they often develop similar sentiments. In this way, a brand operates as a consensus system, facilitating a consistent set of beliefs across people.
