Subjetividades fakes: la interpasividad desde la (neuro)psicologización a la digitalización
Year: 2021
Type: article
Abstract: The present article develops an analytical approach on psychologization and the production of subjectivity in digital communities. Based on the concept of interpassivity proposed by Pfaller, subjectivity and its enjoyment in the virtual world are examined in the light of the demands of the symbolic system of culture. Passivity and the digital world elaborate new forms of interpellation and subjection to knowledge that make the world of neuroscience and digitalization coincide as similar processes. On the contrary, the paper unveils the analog functioning of the digital reproduction of a previously elaborated human psyche that is captured by the avatars we use in the digital world. The digital double life entails a consensual adaptation of the subjects and their avatars, which implies knowing their entire psyche. A last critique is elaborated from the Lacanian notion of object a that unfolds an impasse in the administration of data in the digital world and the construction of subjectivities.
