itube is a multimedia installation and workshop series exploring the construction of identity in the digital age. The final installation featured 50 stories from just as many participants, presented across 24 screens.

Over the course of the workshop series, 50 individuals from three different cities were paired with a complete stranger. With only a limited social media profile as a reference, each participant created a subjective portrait of the other. What do we reveal online? What assumptions do we make? How far does the identity we construct diverge from reality?

After four initial graphic workshops, the participants finally met face-to-face. Their reactions, reflections, and revelations became the core of four digital remix workshops, where they reworked their original images using pixels and sound—responding to the encounter and re-examining their own projections.

The result was a collective portrait of 50 short stories, made up of over 500 images, video fragments, and soundscapes—brought together in a single installation.
