A colleague of mine, Kieron Corrigan, might be interested.

Has anybody done work on Foucault's idea of the "technologies of the self"
in cyberspace? My own take on this (for a book) is that cyberspace forms
subjectivities between the axes of authenticity--confession, ie that
cyberspace is another confessional regime where we can attempt to recover
our "true selves" outside the reach of power relations (a chimera according
to Foucault).

Would be interested to hear from anybody on this. Thanks!
