From the dichotomy between the consumer society and symbolic and material values to the constant reproduction of eroticized images in advertising, a global culture of consumption is revealed that transforms the experience of the body into a spectacle of itself.

Through the lens of technology and digital communication, we unravel how digital platforms like MSN Messenger, Chatroulette, Grindr, and Tinder have been reconfiguring erotic and affective relationships in the contemporary city. From the virtualization of love to the emergence of geolocation on mobile devices, we examine how these tools are transforming urban landscapes and redefining concepts of intimacy and proximity.

The project also highlights the importance of surveillance and control spaces in the digital age, especially in contexts where sexual relationships are subject to restrictive laws. From geolocation triangulation in Grindr to user detentions in countries with laws against the LGBTQ+ community, the impact of technology on urban life and individual freedoms is underscored.
