Description
Summary:This article would like to focus on a well-known episode of the British series Black Mirror, created by Charlie Brooker and broadcast on Channel 4 (2011-2014), then on Netflix (2016-), “Nosedive”, the first episode of the third season (2016). We will focus in particular on typifying the social-digital forms of life that are caricatured in it according to a prospective of moral imperfectionism. This horizon of moral imperfectionism questions Stanley Cavell's vision of interpersonal relations as a necessary substratum for the possibility of transforming our society. We will propose a critical path/voice that allows us to escape the passive consumption of dystopia in favor of a “contre-faire” and a re-creation of another sustainable connected world.
