The workshop will be divided in two mirrored blocks, covering macro- and micro- aspects of post-truth narratives. The first block (macro-) will focus mainly on approaches to discern the narrative structures of fake news, and present a research project of gossip as a communication device. This block will be followed up with an open discussion to establish a common language, develop a shared context and make visible the stakes of fake news in everyday life.
The second block (micro-) will focus mainly on the relation between users and identities. Investigating how, in the play of hyper-targeted activities and highly personalised contents, selves have and could alternatively respond symbolically and functionalistically to be as well as access to information flux and knowledgeable materials. After this, we want to engage with the group to discuss possible approaches to unify these two levels of reality, find the connections between the public sphere and the individual, and create –in a poetic, ethical or philosophical way– a personal approach towards our user-realities.
The full workshop temporality will be developed in two times, the first one on the morning approaching the two blocks presentations and developments, and a second moment after lunch more concretely imaginative, inviting to think about the two blocks and their relationships.
Only laptop required.
