The unbearable hedonistic delirium of unsated desire in the mass production of consumption as dissatisfaction… The inverted scream in the unrelenting inauthentication of Being… The eye which sees only as directed and assumes sight… The search for joy in the emptiness of consumer pleasure… The disembodied melody which reaches out into the lonely night of technological seduction… Rage turned into a scientific pattern of repressed anger… Loneliness in the dread of being eternally lost… The search for self which negates the self in which the self nevertheless continues… The jubilant dance of deception.

Compelling, incisive analyses of the production of thought and the incarceration of the Subject in the cultural imperialism of the technocapitalist mass media and consciousness industry.

This book is a must for those who are interested in looking beyond the seductive dazzle of superficiality in mass mediated images of the self.
