Abstract:

This conference contribution theorises with the 2023 TikTok trend "corecore" and considers its various, sometimes contradictory, political affiliations. It participates in the collage traditions of revolutionary avant-garde movements, while also being co-opted by far-right inflammatory online groups. I propose that corecore is a leading example of a zombie subculture – going through the motions of collective aesthetic formulations without changing material or social conditions of participants, but perhaps showing potential to do so in combination with other forms of activism.
