Resumo: Buffering, namely the need to preload data before streaming a video or audio file, epitomizes the oft-ignored ruptures and disruptions of digital engagement. Whereas buffering is often read as “noise” or as a technical nuisance awaiting a solution, a closer look can challenge our notion of mediation, immersion, and control. By contextualizing the study of buffering within a rich history of spectatorial and sonic noise, this article explores the unique “perpetual anxiety” it invokes and exposes, as well as the tension between pleasure and pain embodied in recognizing the imperfections of a supposedly seamless techno-utopia

Mientras que el almacenamiento en búfer a menudo se lee como "ruido" o una molestia técnica que espera ser resuelta, una mirada más cercana puede llevarnos a cuestionar nuestra noción de mediación, inmersión y control. Al contextualizar el estudio del almacenamiento en búfer dentro de una rica historia de ruido auditivo y sónico, este artículo explora la "ansiedad perpetua" única que invoca y expone, así como la tensión entre el placer y el dolor encarnada en el reconocimiento de las imperfecciones de una tecnología supuestamente continua y utópica.Buffering, ou seja, a necessidade de pré-carregar dados antes de transmitir um arquivo de vídeo ou áudio, resume as rupturas e interrupções frequentemente ignoradas do engajamento digital. Considerando que o buffer é frequentemente lido como “ruído” ou como um incômodo técnico aguardando uma solução, um olhar mais atento pode nos levar a desafiar nossa noção de mediação, imersão e controle. Ao contextualizar o estudo do buffering dentro de uma rica história de ruído espectatorial e sonoro, este artigo explora a “ansiedade perpétua” única que ele invoca e expõe, bem como a tensão entre prazer e dor incorporada ao reconhecer as imperfeições de uma tecnologia supostamente contínua e utópica.Socine - Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos de Cinema e Audiovisual2023-07-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionTexto application/pdfhttps://rebeca.socine.org.br/1/article/view/95910.22475/rebeca.v12n1.959Rebeca - Brazilian Journal for Cinema and Audiovisual Studies; Vol. 12 No. 1 (2023): Rebeca 23Rebeca - Revista Brasileira de Estudos de Cinema e Audiovisual; Vol. 12 Núm. 1 (2023): Rebeca 23Rebeca - Revista Brasileira de Estudos de Cinema e Audiovisual; Vol. 12 No 1 (2023): Rebeca 23Rebeca - Revista Brasileira de Estudos de Cinema e Audiovisual; v. 12 n. 1 (2023): Rebeca 232316-9230reponame:Rebeca (São Paulo)instname:Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos de Cinema e Audiovisual (SOCINE)instacron:SOCINEporhttps://rebeca.socine.org.br/1/article/view/959/546Copyright (c) 2023 Neta Alexanderhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAlexander, NetaBezerra, Julio2023-07-30T18:45:41Zoai:ojs.emnuvens.com.br:article/959Revistahttps://rebeca.socine.org.br/1ONGhttps://rebeca.socine.org.br/1/oairebeca@socine.org.br2316-92302316-9230opendoar:2023-07-30T18:45:41Rebeca (São Paulo) - Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos de Cinema e Audiovisual (SOCINE)false
