What is the core of things and can it be found on TikTok? The #corecore trend, which has given a name to a video-essayistic aesthetic on social platforms over the last two years, at least sounds promising. These short videos are an expression of current world contemplation and contemporary reflection with an anti-capitalist veneer – and the starting point for this talk. Long before the birth of various #core trends, we follow the path of melancholy into the past and discuss the relationship between #core and art and why Michel Friedmann describes Christianity as the “first global company”.
