The Art of Gig, Volume 2: Superstructures

by Venkatesh G. Rao, Grace Witherell, Jenna Dixon (Editor)

The Art of Gig is a two-volume guide to the modern gig economy, with particular emphasis on independent consulting. It is intended to serve as a philosophical companion for a life of free agency and help you develop a sensibility of work attuned to both the poetry and practicalities of life beyond paychecks. The essays included in these volumes were originally published over two years in a weekly email newsletter. They have been carefully updated, sequenced, and structured for this compilation. This second volume, Superstructures, comprises thirty-four essays that aim to help you explore beyond the foundations. Topics covered the history and future of the free-agent economy, creative frames for approaching gigwork, and managing your psyche.

The first volume, Foundations, covers fundamental topic areas where it is important to cultivate good intuitions early.
