Abstract

Digital culture has transformed places and agents related to writing and vocality. Writing is closer to orality, publications might not include mediation, and digital files can disseminate voice. Moreover, the notion of “sharing” challenges usual authorship and closes the gap between text production and reception. While printed culture meant body repression and text autonomy, digital culture, by requiring seamless connection, brings body closer to text. Thus, would it be admissible to define contemporary culture as baroque due to its endless sensory appeal to connected bodies? What is the impact of contemporary files - which can carry image, text, and sound -, relative to the impact of printed text? What makes digital files such effective means for political mobilization?

Keywords: digital culture; writing; voice.
