Culture Jamming is "the dream of reclaiming our sense of ourselves as citizens in a culture that insists on reducing us to consumers -- wallets with mouths, in advertising parlance."
- Mark Dery, Foreword of Culture Jamming: Activism and the Art of Cultural Resistance, edited by Marilyn Delaure and Moritz Fink

Click Shopper: This term reflects our obsession with metrics like views, likes, and subscriptions. The issue isn’t limited to individuals—businesses, such as online journalism companies, also contribute by producing clickbait content to drive engagement on their websites.
SD LSD: We spend a significant portion of our day using technology and social media. It’s hard to imagine life without these tools—communicating with friends and family has never been easier or more convenient. But do these technologies come at a cost? Could they be hindering our real-life communication skills—or even fostering addiction?
