Second year

obsessive catalogue of madness

What is it?
Publication based on our(me+Lorenzo)'s online obsessive observations. Digging into online platform rabbitholes (mostly instagram and youtube).

The aesthetic of the aesthetic.

Spiritual colonisation and the online trends aesthetic politization. Brat summer, demure the importance of the format.
Cosplaying poorness.
Framing conservative spirituality as progressive ancient wisdom, being packaged as freeminded.

concerning the suffixes i.e. core, punk, esque
absurdity of the rapid speed of conceptualization of multiple aesthetics, freedom to just make anything and that 'freedom' has influence on daily life.

example: crustfund baby's: (majorably) white people getting into spirituality based on preconceptions that are presented online without the context of the inspiration.

example: new tradwife translated from american english to italian culture -> conservative catholicism

examples cryptobro culture etc

The Theory of the Leisure Class by Veblen, wealthy people create content and leisure.


Why make it?

for cultural observation, because we are insane

Workflow
This is a side project, this means we will work on this on our free time, we both are really passionate about these themes

Timetable
the only deadline we decided on is November 4th (public moment), it would be nice to present to the public a draft, even a really unfinished version of our little research. It might change into November 1st.

Rapid prototypes (scratches)

is our first meeting pad a prototype?
is our wiki a prototype?

Relation to previous practice
Doomscrolling and cynical thoughts

First year
