Dollhouse

I think that people's relationship to technology is getting very close to making mankind dependent on the stimulous of the artificial situations that people enjoy. The online identity, the digital imediate get everything you want additude and even as the dollhouse so elequently puts it, takes peoples identities fully away from themselves and can make them into other people. In the season of the Dollhouse, the woman signed away five years of her life to have her mind wiped and portay different people. I think that you don't even need your mind wiped for this process to occur. Take a person with no life and stick him in front of a computer for five years without getting to go anywhere. I bet you he will have it least 20 to 30 SNS that he or she recreates themselves on and communicates with. Sexuality online is far too motivated by instant gratification and the ability to get laid within a night. I think that the poetry of intimacy of a normal situation is taken for granted when people think everything is easily found digitally.
