Im Internet schiessen Websites wie Pilze aus dem Boden, die wie journalistische Medien aufgemacht sind, aber in erster Linie Werbeeinnahmen durch die Verbreitung von Desinformation generieren. Die 3D-animierte Dokumentation Spray and Pray taucht in die dunkle Seite des Internets ein, wo die Anti-LGBTQ+-Agenda den wirtschaftlichen Interessen bestimmter skrupelloser Personen dient.
Making easy money through disinformation. Websites that imitate the appearance of
journalistic media, but which exist solely to generate advertising revenue by disseminating disinformation, are proliferating like mushrooms on the web. Sensational headlines (“Unseen gender orgies on US streets, children targeted”) capitalise on fear and anti-LGBT and anti-immigrant resentment, encouraging clicks and shares and generating income. Sensationalism without limits or safeguards – the higher the shock value, the more effective it is. A monetisation of fear that has real effects in marginalising vulnerable people, and contributes to the polarisation of social space while exploiting the gaps in our perceptions, hypnotised by algorithms. Built on extensive research, this film by artist Veneta Androva presents scripted interviews in 3D animations with some of the grifters. Fictional dialogues inspired by verified facts and journalistic investigations which, through their visualisation, question our strained ability to distinguish truth from falsehood.
