| Popis: |
This project aims to see how controversies, narratives and images related to the MH-17 crash have unfolded on Instagram, specifically, how does tragic content get mediated on an aesthetics based platform such as Instagram. The everyday and the exceptional get entangled in tragedies such as the mh-17 crash as well, and they stay entangled, also in the longtail/aftermath of the event. Current news issues, such as the Gaza war, get entangled with the tragedy as well, which says something about the 'messiness' of the platform, at least when it comes to the case studied here.Our findings resonate with Lev Manovich's claims about the Euromaidan, where the mundane and the exceptional become intertwined. This study zoomed in on the exceptional - the MH17 crash - also in the exceptional and tragic, the mundane and vague (like photography, the search for likes and followers, and completely different political current concerns) become entangled with mourning for the MH17 victims and respective political demands. |
