It's 2011 and the society of the spectacle is in full bloom

Experiences are a commodity,
gotta collect 'em all,
post 'em, share 'em, bag 'em & tag 'em

If it didn't happen on facebook, it didn't happen

"All that once was directly lived has become mere representation."

It was Hebrew.

Even thinking about this again is making my head explode.

There were a bunch of things creepy about this.

Wristwatches that COLLECT YOUR DATA with RFID chips and upload what you're doing immediately to Facebook.

Autotagging. Oh gods, the autotagging.

That Coca-Cola has a camp for teenagers. What the hell is up with that?

The whole idea that, as Cram put it, "If it didn't happen on Facebook it didn't happen"

The last part here is the idea that online is the new reality, and that Facebook needs to be integrated even further with what you are physically doing. And also that the real world is a vacation spot from the Internet.

We ache to show each other how much fun we're having,
how authentic we are.

Rather than being satisfied by the experience itself,
we have become collectors of experiences.

A butterfly, mounted on a pin, kept under glass
A label underneath it reads "23 people Like this".



Another link suggests that we "share" this experience.




I'm guilty of it too. I feel like I need to distinguish myself from this sea of people in order to maintain a sense of self & identity. And facebook is a theater designed for that. These days, if you don't have a facebook account, you may miss the party invitation altogether. I won't disagree that facebook has helped me connect and stay in contact with a lot of wonderful human beings who would otherwise be outside my peripheral vision. But it's also a trap, it is meant to confuse the experience with the image of the experience.
