3,— Fake News. What is ‘Fake News’? How do they work? What are the consequences and implications for the status of democracy in our present century? Can you explain why are they fabricated? If we are all consuming this ‘fabricated’ reality, what type of society and culture does ‘Fake News’ mirror? Is there any relation between the so-called ‘politics of deceiving’ with the main characteristics of our shared (neoliberal) cultural paradigm? In this sense, some academic research has also highlighted our present as the age of post-truth. What do you think about this ‘label’? What relationship does it have with ideas of trust and democracy? You may want to take into consideration Shoshana Zuboff’s considerations in regards to the idea of Surveillance Capitalism in order to further explore the concept of Fake News in the digital era. In this regard, Fontcuberta’s artistic work might also be pertinent as a social and cultural critique on how we acquire a comprehension and understanding of the real. Furthermore, this presentation has to illustrate the concept of ‘Fake News’ from an intercultural angle: compare Spanish examples (11M Attacks, Prestige and the Yak affair) with other ones from the U.S.
