Lucie Chateau
Lucie Chateau is a Ph.D. researcher at Tilburg University in the Netherlands whose work focuses on the possibility of aesthetic subversion online and the role of memes. Her Ph.D. project is entitled ‘Anxious aesthetics: Alienation and the image in post-memetic digital capitalism’. She researches and analyses emergent experimental aesthetics that develop in the digital space subsequent to memetic forms of image production becoming the predominant image distribution model on social networking platforms. Lucie’s work has therefore looked at depression memes, anti-capitalist memes and climate change memes, but seeks to maintain a broader outlook on the ways in which political subjectivity and technological infrastructure have come to form aesthetic assemblages online.
