Pilot Wave Theory
You're not choosing where to click—you're riding invisible waves that were set in motion long before you opened your phone.

physics
Hamiltonian
In physics, the Hamiltonian describes total energy and governs evolution through time—in surveillance capitalism, someone else wrote your equation.
physics
Uncertainty Principle
The more precisely you're measured, the less you understand yourself—Heisenberg's ghost in the machine of surveillance capitalism.
physics
Quantization
In quantum physics, energy comes in discrete packets—and so does your attention, your identity, and every moment of your digital existence.
physics
Optical Path Length
Light doesn't measure distance the way you do—and neither does your attention in the attention economy.
physics
Mirror
In physics, a mirror reverses light's direction without changing its speed—in surveillance capitalism, your reflection stares back with a thousand calculated eyes.
physics
Lens
Every lens bends light toward a point of focus—and so does every algorithm, every interface, every screen that mediates your reality.
physics
Total Internal Reflection
When light can't escape a denser medium, it bounces back—just like your attention trapped inside algorithmic walls.
physics
Reflection
In physics, reflection is when a wave bounces back from a surface—in surveillance capitalism, you are both the wave and the mirror.
physics
Refraction
Light bends when it crosses boundaries—so does your attention when it enters the digital medium.
