Screen Walk With Noura Tafeche
About this film
Noura Tafeche shared her ongoing research on online visual cultures cross mixing cute-kawaii, violent-military and gaming aesthetics. Noura guided the audience through the nooks and crannies of The Kawayoku Inception archival project. Accomplished over four years of research on social media and online micro-communities, this ongoing archive was built to catalogue nearly 30,000 files within a map of the digital platforms where the phenomenon proliferates. The project ranges from military propaganda translated into choreographic dance routines and challenges, to the weeb alt-right incel imaginary intertwined with cute manga fan-art. Screen Walks is a series of live-streamed artist/researcher-led explorations of online spaces and artistic strategies designed to illuminate a thriving – often overlooked – digital cultural scene. A new online collaboration between The Photographers’ Gallery , UK and Fotomuseum Winterthur , Switzerland.
