WikiLeaks: Axis of Reputation
Released in conjunction with Fillip 15, WikiLeaks: Axis of Reputation maps the “soft power relations” of the whistleblower website WikiLeaks though its interactions with various media, corporate, and governmental actors. The work is part of Metahaven’s ongoing Transparency, Inc. project (2010–), a research effort investigating the image politics of transparency. Transparency, Inc. began through an attempt to outline the constantly fluctuating image economy of (and potential alternative visual representations for) WikiLeaks. It has since evolved with the aim of addressing the issue of transparency more generally.
