摘要:As the professional online persona becomes ever more ubiquitous, those who create them must negotiate increasinglydiverse audiences and purposes. For artists, whose role is (in Schiebe’s terms) as much granted by their audienceas attained by the individual, whose work is often solitary, and who do not require specific training oraccreditation to claim the title, presenting a “professional artist” persona is particularly complex. By adapting theInterpretative Phenomenological Analysis methodology, I have investigated the experience of online persona creation,asking what it is like to create an artist’s persona online, defining an online persona as the presentation ofthe self on and through digitally networked spaces, where the self that is presented is a reflection, extension anddistillation of a particular individual.
