Abstract

This article contains the inicial part of my Master´s degree research, which I try to investigate some forms of self image contemporary using most advanced technologies. My research is focused on vídeos with performatic characteristics, available on the Internet, specially those produced with webcams. However, in this introductory part, I intend to focus on the devices and mechanisms producing images which foresee (and antecipate) what today is known as the cinema, thinking about subjectivity, body and self representation transformations.
