Beskrivning

Real feelings on real faces. But what happens when they cover their face with a mask? The essay uses mainly two examples (Sido, Slipknot) to show how the mask constructs the persona of pop stars - and thus reveals structures of pop music. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence.
