Coisa de Garota: plataforma hipermídia de true crime

Abstract

The experimental project approaches the process of the creation of a true crime hypermedia platform named “Girl’s thing”. The purpose of this project is to be a platform, about women for women, by gathering true crime stories committed by them. We want to make room to discuss gender issues and female protagonism, encouraging reflection about the cases in our platform. Specifics objectives: demystify the idea of women being the “weak” gender, think about their trajectories until they commit the crimes, aware that both men and women need to be judged for their crimes, but none can be based just on their genders. For this project, we’ll approach the cases of Brenda Ann Spencer and Elizabeth Báthory through the Genial.ly platform.
