For an Imaginary Page is an audiovisual project by Canadian artist Nina Davies, where she uses the algorithm as a narrative medium to analyze and question the consumption of content on social media. This content is dominated by algorithmic structures that prioritize affinities and obsessive attention. Through a writing workshop held on Zoom, in which each participant was invited to write a story based on the first videos that appeared in their TikTok or Instagram Reels feed, the artist generated a series of clips that bring these fictions back into the digital medium.
