In part 3 of our series covering the anthology \u201cOur Blessed Rebel Queen\u201d, we look at Andrew Kemp-Wilcox\u2019s essay, \u201cHarvesting the Celebrity Interface: Carrie Fisher, Virtual Performance, and Software Stars\u201d. The essay covers the topics of digital performance, online persona, the concept of the \u201csoftware celebrity\u201d, and consumerism. We continue analyzing our relationship to Princess Leia and Carrie Fisher: How we have been consumers of her image and persona and how we have projected ourselves onto her. We talk through these topics and our own ever-changing relationship with constructed images and celebrity.\n \xa0\n Buy the essay anthology (they\u2019re back!): https://amzn.to/3JhQFgK\xa0\n \xa0\n \xa0\n https://www.patreon.com/skytalkers\n http://skytalkers.com\xa0\n http://www.twitter.com/skytalkerspod\n https://www.tiktok.com/@skytalkers\xa0\n http://facebook.com/skytalkerspod\xa0\n https://www.instagram.com/skytalkerspodcast\xa0\n http://www.twitter.com/crerrity\xa0\n http://www.twitter.com/caitlinplesher\xa0\n hello@skytalkers.com\xa0\nLearn more about your ad choices.
