Abstract

Drawing on Bauman’s (2000) liquid modernity and Bardhi and Eckhardt’s (2017) concept of liquid consumption, this research attempts to frame liquid cultural consumption through six tensions, namely [De|Re]materialization, [Over]Abundance, [Auto|Hetero]nomy, [Con|Pro]sumption, Access vs Possession, Commodification vs Sacralization. We conclude proposing pathways for future research.
