I’m starting with the vape performance, more-or-less *performance's only life is in the present*

ephemeral installation that        exists in your mind, 
until you outsource the labor. 

like smoking cigarettes c. 1999,      a form of social architecture—in this sense, 
                                     a decorative motif,         performance

I’d argue,  Peggy Phelan, you try to document it and then poof; “vape” 

It’s pretty Rococo,                                  as consumerist adornments go. 
What’s making you want to collaborate with the synchronized           ?
devices locate us in a diffuse kind of capitalism

—one based on the fact that technology is now almost too emptied out of meaning
