[Commlist] New book: Data Dating: Love, Technology, Desire

Intellect is pleased to announce that /*Data Dating: Love, Technology, 
Desire <https://www.intellectbooks.com/data-dating>*/*/,/* edited by 
Ania Malinowska and Valentina Peri, is now available in hardback. Coming 
soon as an ebook.

/Data Dating: Love, Technology, Desire/ is a comprehensive study of love 
and intimacy under digitalism that reflects on the structure of 
feeling(s) and libido environments in the high-tech and mediabound 
landscapes of contemporary technocracies. Organized around ten chapters 
and ten works of new media art, the collection offers an extensive 
critical analysis of technologized romance (and other emotional 
relations), as well as providing an insight into the codification, 
execution, deployment and evolution of the patterns of togetherness in 
the so-called Tamagotchi era. The collection of essays, each accompanied 
by a work of media art, provides a comprehensive insight into the 
construction of love and its practices in the time of digitally mediated 
relationships.
