In the short film FAST FEED; actor and director Ira Mandela Siobhan moves through a social media feed, exploring the algorithms that rule today's fast information flow.

​

FAST FEED leads you through a complex nest of algorithmic connections, reenacting different forms of political speech, otherwise to be swallowed and absorbed by the fast feed. It invites you to consider what it means to form an opinion in a time of constant dismissal and praise. When yesterday's hero is tomorrow's fool the individualization of politics becomes the privilege of some and the burden of others.
