This is an investigation of the transformation of the image in an interface that questions the role of algorithmic code in the construction of the visual and explores the process of dematerialization / rebuilding of identity, via image in social networks. See the application running. We depart from a conceptual dialogue with the film Blow Up (Antonioni, 1966) to operate a rereading of the seminal essays by Vilém Flusser on photography in the form of aesthetic experience.
