Resumo

This dissertation aimed to understand how interfaces, data and performative algorithms represent a new way of perceiving ourselves and the world, therefore, it would be cultural forms; and in what way they impact, particularly, the categories in which the audiovisual of the Netflix device in its desktop version is enunciated. It is with this objective that we look, in this research, at the triggers, the action, the performance from what humans and non-humans establish as articulation. For this, we use the methodology of frames as an epistemology of analysis and synthesis as a standard for problematizing and discussing results, direct observation of the Netflix platform, accessed mainly from a private window of the Internet browser Firefox version 110.0.1 (64-bit), such as data collection techniques. As a theoretical reference, we used the assumptions of authors who approach Anthropology, Data Science, Media and Cultural Performances from a technocultural perspective, such as Bauman, Baudrillard, Di Felice, Feenberg, Frey, Dubois, Kerckhove, Murray, Manovich, MerleauPonty, Rocha, Santaella and Williams, evidencing the transdisciplinary nature of the topic addressed. As a result, we found that Netflix's recommendation system increasingly raises the user's algorithmic challenge for the most diverse actions. This is characterized by measurability, submitting attributes, activities and interactions to different categories of metrics; by recursion, continuously refining and recalibrating it based on information about itself supplied in some way by the user; by profiling, defining profiles from the contingent articulation of vestiges, data and digital traces obtained from each one; and by nichification, grouping profiles into consumption-oriented niches. These are consolidated by their assumption by the user, which corresponds to performativity, and this also refers to performance in the sense of performance. Finding out what this recommendation system shows, how it shows itself, what the user sees and how he sees it has impacts on individual and collective subjectivity and experience, making it necessary to investigate the performative reordering of Netflix based on these media crossings.
