V.I.B.E explores the rise of "vibe culture" as a dominant mode of sense-making in the post-truth era, through a speculative electoral campaign and interactive installation.
One man one vote, or better...one screen one vote.
In a media landscape characterized by algorithmic bubbles and short-form video content, rational discourse is being threatened by ambiently spread propaganda—vibes. Critically engaging with the memetic strategies of contemporary far-right movements, the project investigates how hyper-online weaponized aesthetics normalize violence and advance authoritarianism through affectual manipulation.
