Title: From “tumblr purge” to “female nipples”: Telling a story of platform censorship critique through memes and digital methods
Subtitle:
Abstract:

The main findings of this project derive from the combination of nonhuman interventions into Tumblr subcultures and user resistance to these interventions through memes and other forms of vernacular participation (screenshots, GIFs, etc.). Especially when it comes to what Tumblr algorithms filtered incorrectly and what they overlooked, data-exploratory approaches focusing on the remediation of ‘prohibited’ content through visual means provide interesting entry points for methodological experimentation.
