Thomas Faucheux – Sockciety
with Alain Bellet, Cyril Diagne, Christophe Guignard, Gaël Hugo

It is also a reflection on the consequences of the “datatification” of the world, mingled with a system of perverse gamification where all quantified actions become criteria for evaluation, necessary to the obtention of a uniform.
