PERSONAL PHOTOS ON FACEBOOK: bodies and subjectivities in shared visual narratives

Abstract

This research discusses, in an approximation with the narratives of Alice in Wonderland, the Greek Mythology of Narcissus and the Lost Boys in Neverland, the ways of articulation of the corporeal experiences of the juvenile subjects by the production and photographic publicity in the social networks, signaling other learning routes - in a specific look at the narratives woven on the social network Facebook. The objective was to investigate and analyze the shared photographic juvenile narratives in digital social media, in order to understand other routes of learning signaled by these narratives. It is a qualitative research, descriptive and analytical, founded in ‘Netnopesquisa’. The research concluded that the juvenile bodies depicted in the photographs published on Facebook are techno-digital communication channels; the juvenile subjects print in their bodies publicized in social networks the avatarization of freedom;the youthful bodies profiled on Facebook are educated by the senses and articulate in a unique trajectory of each subject; facebook is a formative instance and photographic narratives lend freedom to the non-fixation of their bodies.
