A thousand and one suddenly broken screens

Více o knize

Exploring the intersection of personal photography and social media, this book delves into how the accumulation of images shapes individual identity in the digital era. Using concepts from Aby Warburg and José Luis Brea, it critiques the dilution of subjectivity within social networks, suggesting that the shared experience on platforms like Instagram and Facebook creates a ghostly space of distorted reflections. Ultimately, it reveals how the quest for originality in this context leads to a homogenized experience, where individuality is overshadowed by collective imagery.
