platform capitalism
Ingrid Guardiola
Ingrid Guardiola is an essayist, filmmaker and arts manager whose career has been marked by the unwavering desire to question the structures that condition the way we see, feel and live: from visual culture to the production dynamics of arts institutions, by way of the changing ways in which we live and work. Her latest essay, La servidumbre de los protocolos (The Servitude of Protocols), looks at the underlying paradigms that shape contemporary life, unpacking the devices that govern our gestures, our time, and our interactions, under the banner of efficiency, surveillance and saturation. In this podcast, we talk to Ingrid about mutualism, symbols, and rituals, about the limits of cultural institutionalism, and about the cracks that make room for resistance. And we consider the possibility of thinking and feeling outside the boundaries imposed by the techno-bureaucratic apparatus.
