Summary: | Today, entertainment industries are the main figures of western capitalism dynamics. Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have been developed in an unthinkable way: tiny and ubiquitous receivers, frequency modulation, and high fidelity; all these concepts have provoked the isolation of millions of individuals, in their faces and cars; as well have provoked a tendency to socialize in dark spaces. This perversion -that should be persecuted by police- has come into our public and respectable customs. The morbid pleasure of TV audiences is very alike to the scenes of a Roman Coliseum. This essay reflects on culture of spectacle, culture of consume, and culture of erotic consume.
