FEED GHOSTS™

Some people need to be loved; others need to be witnessed. A man who quits the apps reroutes his entire relationship through his partner’s feed, exposing how asymmetrical online presence quietly governs who feels real, who feels seen, and who gets edited out.

FEED GHOSTS™ formalizes the split between Signal Seekers and Noise Walkers, mapping how digital validation modulates intimacy, power, and selfhood inside modern couples. It reframes social media not as backdrop but as a third participant in every romance, a silent Algorithm–Ego complex that circulates affirmation, withholds it, and gradually fractures analog trust. The IP abstracts this dynamic into a repeatable framework—phone-pass rituals, proxy posting, parasocial hauntings—that scales across series, essays, live talks, and diagnostic tools for how relationships survive after one partner leaves the feed.
