QueerQuote: o jornalismo colaborativo como estratégia de empoderamento à arte LGBTQIAPN+

Abstract

This memorial describes the development process of QueerQuote, a collaborative journalism digital platform designed to create, aggregate, and manage journalistic and musical data about LGBTQIAPN+ artists, focusing on the independent artists from Juiz de Fora, Minas Gerais. The work stems from the problem of the corporate, algorithmic, and social access filters imposed on the art produced by this community in traditional media outlets and major digital platforms. The memorial demonstrates the entire process of conception, architecture, technical development, and publication of the platform, including the collaborative suggestion system, editorial moderation, and the production of inaugural content based on interviews with local artists. It argues that digital and collaborative journalism can act as a tool to empower LGBTQIAPN+ art by creating its own media spaces that bypass the hegemonic filters of mass media.
