About the Book
We are constantly addressing and living practices of social relations, being them virtual or real. The only difference between these two modes of seen and live is that most of the time; there is no need for a physical space. As consumer of information we are constantly encouraged to participate in those rituals of associative networks and by assuming our positions into it, we becomes spectators and participants of a purely virtual environment.
As the need for these modes of socialization evolves and transform our social identity and our social spaces so does our dependency on those engaging mechanisms. My fascination is the relations and the processes behind the networking discourses and social identity, its privacy and its security as well as how it affects us.
