Latency & Longing: The UX of Love™ – Autocorrected Attractions in the Age of Engineered Intimacy

In an era where every heartbeat routes through a screen, Latency & Longing: The UX of Love™ declares that romance has been converted from spontaneous feeling into designed product. The series maps how micro-interactions—typing dots, read receipts, lag, and AI chat—recode attachment, turning UX decisions into the new governors of desire, conflict, and grief.

This IP reframes modern romance as an operating system, exposing the invisible product choices that modulate who we long for, how we perform vulnerability, and when we finally disconnect. By compressing eight discrete “friction points” into a single anthology chassis, it codifies a scalable format that can reroute into follow-up seasons, companion docs, and platform-native extensions. It channels the languages of design, psychology, and ethics into a unified franchise spine that streamers can circulate across scripted, unscripted, and editorial ecosystems.
