They who do not trust enough, will not be trusted.

Adapted from Lao Tzu’s quote

The platform https://fabricatedintimacy.tech developed in 2018-2019 hosts a collection of texts and encrypted content from Technologically Fabricated Intimacy - a research project in collaboration with Dr Alessandro Gandini of the Department of Digital Humanities at King’s College London, analyzing transformations of the affective social fabric via technologies of the self in contact with blockchain-based decetralized fintech ideals.
The project involves multiple thinkers, designers, gamers and co-creators.
