We investigate how the subjects with Instagram profiles and YouTube channels, media environments operating as sociotechnological networks, can be regarded as effects produced in performance. We use two master’s thesis produced in previous years in order to highlight the importance of infocommunicative media on the production of subjectivity. We understand that exposing oneself on a network through the body tells us about a communicative phenomenon of individual, collective and institutional assemblages. Due to its dialogical dynamics, we infer that performance puts performers and audiences into relation. The empirical notes mention @jpcaruso profile on Instagram and Não Faz Sentido! and Vlog do Felipe Neto channels on YouTube.
Keywords: images, performance, subjects, Instagram, YouTube.
