SOCIALITY + GAMIFICATION. Game-like manipulation of human behaviour is applied to the rhythms of sexual desire, argues new book. Scenes are replaced by screens; match-making by market valuations; bodily selves by datafied “phantom bodies.” Navigating the “libidinal city” outsourced to algorithms: pre-configured experiences. Filter bubbles: herd tastes. Nudged into thinking: lines of desire. Everyone is as gamer: mutual struggle against boredom. Emptiness.
