"This clashes with our personal experience of identity: are we not more than the sum of our parts or words on paper?"
"Facebook is a database disguised as a network. Over two billion users have joined, bringing along with them their social graph, all of the accumulated edges connecting them with their friends, families, institutions, ideologies, interests, etc. Unfortunately not too far from hyperbole, Facebook can use this information to create a simulacrum, or homunculus, of you within their system. The algorithms and the data sets you unwittingly feed them can literally be used to change your reality and emotional well-being. If the recent Cambridge Analytica scandal and the 2014 Emotional Contagion Experiment are any indication, our data has become valuable, even powerful, in ways we never anticipated. Similar to the state, trust is centralized with the service provider whom we have come to rely upon to stay connected to others in the 21st century."

Queer Identity
Body/Physical Identity (Body dysmorphia)
Etc

There can be so many questions:
How do you brand the perfect persona?
- How can creating an immersive or/and interactive environment/experience create an understanding of ______?
- How to initiate a space where people have to interact with their own digital/or physical persona?
- What is and why is the digital/physical persona?
- With the use of space creating a narrative that articulates the look and feel of a persona.

I digress
do I?

Am I trying to say that faux personas are people not living a full life? Not experiencing to the fullest? Not appreciating?
Is it a problem?
Would us using internets/social media/online identity be a form of policing (Panopticon by focault)?

Is the internet/social media anothe
