Forward/Introduction

(tell us about yourself and your practice)

Abstract

(in 250 words or less, explain the essence of your research project)

In sharing our voices, the physical and the abstract, we search for echoes of ourselves. We locate our position through bouncing our thoughts on fellow people. In this landscape a truth is created when enough people say so. Things are not to be understood, but to be believed.

Social media is getting more and more accurate in showing you what you want and believe. It creeps us out because there is no physical explanation. People are feeling watched and not save. And so we gather around the campfire, telling stories of the modern boogieman lurking in the shadows of our devices, spying and gathering information. Creating and corrupting our echoes.

In light of this we created several, tactile and understandable, devices which confirm specific allegations against social media.
