⚠️ Tie to BeReal ⚠️ – FESCH.TV

FESCH.TV INFORMIERT:

In the ubiquity of our online archives, moments of importance are lost in the mundane. ⚠️ Time to BeReal ⚠️ is about the ironic relationship between users and self surveillant nature of social media platforms. We revolt against big tech companies for invading our privacy, but we simultaneously document every part of our lives for everyone to see. What is the authentic self if every moment of privacy has a viewer?

If fashion is the fabric that shapes the individual identity, and architecture is the medium that shapes the collective identity, then social media is the architecture of the internet. These platforms shape the way we interact with each other and ourselves. We have become so obsessed with documenting as if memories will disappear if we do not capture them. Twitch.TV sleeping live streams are a perfect example of an ordinary activity being exploited for content. What has the relationship with the intimate parts of our lives become once we broadcast every moment?
