Faceless : Re-inventing Privacy Through Subversive Media Strategies, Paperback / softback Book

Faceless : Re-inventing Privacy Through Subversive Media Strategies Paperback / softback

Edited by Bogomir Doringer, Brigitte Felderer

Part of the Edition Angewandte series

Paperback / softback

Description

The contributions to this book explore a phenomenon that appears to be a contradiction in itself – we, the users of computers, can be tracked in digital space for all eternity.

Although, on the one hand, one wants to be noticed and noticeable, on the other hand one does not necessarily want to be recognized at the first instance, being prey to an unfathomable public, or – even less so – to lose face. The book documents artistic and other strategies that point out options for appearing in the infinite book of faces whilst nevertheless avoiding being included in any records.

The desire not to become a mere object of facial sell-out does not just remain an aesthetic endeavor.

The contributions also contain combative and sarcastic statements against a digital dynamic that has already penetrated our everyday lives.
