TITLE: Longing for Lo-Fi — Glimpsing back through technology

AUTHOR(S): Sébastien Bovie (published by Onomatopee)

YEAR: 2023

DESCRIPTION: One might say that Longing for Lo-fi equals longing for the homely. This book-length essay looks at internet culture through the lens of psychoanalysis, semiotics and critical theory, in an attempt to lay the feeling of comfort bare.

In the here and today there are many attempts to recreate spaces of comfort. The lo-fi community should be considered one of them. Through the numerous nostalgic references and relaxing beats of lo-fi, we retrieve a glimpse of what was once our home—be it real or imaginary.
