What happens when we stop and pay attention in an environment that is designed to distract us? As Artists, how do you engage with a public place like Instagram while navigating its extractive realities? In this workshop, participants will learn how to situate Instagram within their creative practice beyond 'Strategy'. We will look at Facebook's Instagram app less as a 'marketing tool' and more as an ecosystem akin to a 'town square' or a 'street'. Through reflective and documentary exercises, participants will investigate their personal relationship with the platform, discover patterns of interaction and unpack shared ethical concerns. Participants will develop their own methodologies for Refusal (and Attention).
