Digital culture brings these ideas into sharper view. A single sentence, image, or gesture travels outward and returns in altered settings, gaining new resonance with each encounter. Contemporary theorists such as Wendy Hui Kyong Chun show how circulation and repetition shape attention and response, revealing aesthetic activity as a living exchange carried by the ways expression is seen and shared. Examples ranging from the acclaimed Broadway adaptation of The Picture of Dorian Gray to the swift, recursive currents of TikTok illustrate how meaning deepens through repetition, reinterpretation, and collective attention.
Claudia Chung, PhD, is a writer, researcher, and educator whose work examines aesthetic activity, digital culture, and the creation of meaning through perception and relation. She earned her doctorate from Teachers College, Columbia University, after more than a decade as a journalist in New York City covering everyday feminism, human interest, grief, national politics, and contemporary lifestyle. Her teaching draws on both scholarly research and editorial practice, and she has taught writing, rhetoric, aesthetic theory, and digital media at Teachers College, Columbia University, New York Film Academy, and Hunter College. Her work brings together literary theory, cultural analysis, and creative practice to explore how aesthetic expression moves across digital and material environments.
