My channel will explore the contemporary Art world, ‘Internet culture’, and dabbling in social commentary. A little bit informative and a little bit of poking fun. 

 

Three broad topics:

1. Para social relationships
2. AI and the artworld
3. Internet aesthetics

 

Narratives and questions:

1. Lifestyle influencers must be stopped!
2. AI helped me write this; Is the use of AI cheating?
3. Tumblr and the glamorization of 'the void’

 

1. Being a chronically online individual myself, I’ve seen my fair share of lifestyle influencers  reach a high level of notoriety, align themselves with a brand or product that ends up being poor quality or facing criticism for portraying a false image. I would want to look into the more recent cases of these, how this kind of stuff happens and looking at the Para social connection between viewers and influencers. 
2. The use of AI in creative industries has been a hot topic, often facing heavy criticism in regards to copyright and intellectual property, posing the question for many artists: ‘is there any point in pursuing an art career if an AI can make things instantly?’. What is not spoken about often enough is how AI could be used as a tool to assist rather than replace.
3. There have been many different internet influenced aesthetics. When I used to be on Tumblr in my angsty teenage years, there was a lot of content on the platform that, looking back on it now as an adult, was not particularly ‘healthy’ but as a teen you see it as edgy and dark. So this video would be looking back at that stuff with more mature eyes.
