Circulation of faces: from the magic formula to resistance 169 curtailment of the victim’s image that implies the permanence of an imaginary of the favela, drug trafficking, and prejudice. The mentioned images (figure 07) are not produced to circulate. They are pictures that capture moments for families and that do not always represent the murdered child, like Kauan’s photo- graph, taken years before his death. In other words, the pictures in albums have a face, but it is a face that is not related to the fact of the murders, it does not indicate them, so they are images that bring childhood, shyness, or typical joy, but that cannot be set as synthesis images (ROSA, 2012). After a few days, they disappear and only return when pulled by a new incident to indicate the statistics. In this sense, we understand that the image of the face is not a magic formula as we might suppose based on what was didacticized by the media and major tragedies of international scope because such a formula collides with a process that transcends the learning of media logics and even of mediatization, essentially centered on recognition in the flow ahead. 3. Condition of recognition and counter-agencement The central aspect that emerges is the condition of recognition and, consequently, of visibility. Judith Butler (2017) deals with the condition of recognition as something that pre- cedes recognition itself. If recognition characterizes an act or a practice or even a scene between subjects, then “recogniz- ability” characterizes the more general conditions that prepare or shape a subject for recognition – the general terms, conventions, and norms “act” in their own way, crafting a living being into a recognizable subject, though not without errancy […] (BUTLER, 2017, p. 5). bility of its voice to official sources, especially the police, results in approaches that are not very sensitive to the realities of those already socially excluded. In this aspect, it is necessary to learn another way of practicing journalism.
