在 Miu Miu SS25 秀场的报纸 The Truthless Times 上看到一篇可以衔接符号政治经济学批判(鲍德里亚) 、Capitalist Realism (Mark Fisher)、功绩主体(韩炳哲)的好文。
别「做自己」
Don’t be yourself
……
“Being oneself has become an endless, unmanageable job, requiring constant investment. Updating your Instagram profile, studying a postgraduate degree, practicing crossfit, taking the B1 German exam, volunteering in Thailand, eating a hypocaloric diet, meditating, rating your readings on Goodreads, measuring your REM sleep phases: everything is part of a maximalist strategy of constant self-production. The great novelty introduced by platform capitalism is that now the seemingly immaterial aspects of our performance can also be calculated, recorded, timed, and, ultimately, monetized. How many interactions has my latest post generated? How many calories have I burned biking to college? How many stars have I rated the Uber driver with? What is the optimal distance for Tinder’s geolocator? Any facet of our existence can be mathematized, translated into information that will help us to improve ourselves: to be healthier, more educated, more visible, happier, better connected.”
