Resumo(s)
“City Art – Mimo e a Cidade” é um projeto de machinima que utiliza o motor de Grand Theft Auto V para explorar a condição do artista na sociedade contemporânea, adotando uma abordagem a/r/tográfica que integra prática artística, pesquisa teórica e crítica social. A narrativa simbólica de Mimo, um personagem marginalizado que transita entre a pureza criativa de uma ilha e a hostilidade de uma cidade hipercapitalista, critica a incomunicabilidade da arte autêntica em ecossistemas urbanos consumistas. Inspirado por um quadro teórico que articula as obras de Debord (sociedade do espetáculo), Bauman (modernidade líquida), Baudrillard (hiper-realidade), Jameson (lógica cultural do capitalismo tardio) e Fisher (realismo capitalista), o projeto transforma as limitações técnicas do jogo (como comportamentos de NPC e física irrealista) em metáforas visuais de alienação e resistência, através de uma “poética do glitch”. A metodologia envolveu conceptualização narrativa, um workflow técnico detalhado e análise reflexiva via Diário Digital de Bordo. O machinima subverte a sátira violenta de GTA V, propondo um ativismo lúdico que humaniza o digital. Contribuindo para os campos de Culturas de Arte Digital e História da Média-Arte, o projeto destaca o potencial do machinima como ferramenta de crítica social, desafiando a marginalização do artista e promovendo reflexões sobre autenticidade e vulnerabilidade na cultura algorítmica contemporânea.

It adopts an a/r/tographical approach that integrates artistic practice, theoretical research, and social critique. The symbolic narrative of Mimo, a marginalized character who transitions between the creative purity of an island and the hostility of a hypercapitalist city, critiques the incommunicability of authentic art within consumerist urban ecosystems. Inspired by a theoretical framework that articulates the works of Debord (Society of the Spectacle), Bauman (Liquid Modernity), Baudrillard (Hyperreality), Jameson (Cultural Logic of Late Capitalism), and Fisher (Capitalist Realism), the project transforms the game”s technical limitations (such as NPC behaviors and unrealistic physics) into visual metaphors for alienation and resistance through a “poetics of the glitch”. The methodology involved narrative conceptualization, a detailed technical workflow, and reflexive analysis via a Digital Logbook. The machinima subverts the violent satire of GTA V, proposing a ludic activism that humanizes the digital. Contributing to the fields of Digital Art Cultures and Media Art History, the project highlights the potential of machinima as a tool for social criticism, challenging the marginalization of the artist and fostering reflections on authenticity and vulnerability in contemporary algorithmic culture.
