The Revolution Will Be Videotechnified

This paper proposes the production of interactive environments in street parties in the city of Rio de Janeiro. The parties in urban space can be translated by the optic of production of spaces of resistance and manifestation of the right to the city. This paper investigates urban space from different perspectives: heterotopias, the TAZ, the formation of the favela, the criminalization of funk culture and the production of spaces perpetuating resistance discourses. It is seen that specifically the black public has been neglected by public administrations as a result of Urban Reforms and the formation of a public image of segregation that is perceived until today with the implementation of the project of the Police Pacification Units and the ban on funk dancing. In this context, it is investigated how digital arts, specifically videotechnologies, can work in order to claim the visibility of marginalized groups. The objective of the work was to conceptualize an ambiance for a street party preceded by three experiments concretized in free editions of parties in the city of Rio de Janeiro.
