[that stresses the] semi-conscious nature of human subjects that ‘sleepwalk through everyday life mesmerized and contaminated by the fascinations of their social environment’ (Sampson, 2012: 13). Looking at the case of so-called Obama Love (or Hope) during the 2008 US election of Barak Obama, Laurie Gries' new materialist book on political rhetoric draws on Sampson’s “explications of Tarde’s social epidemiological diagram” to show how Obama Hope “exert[ed] an indirect mesmeric and magnetic force that attracts various entities into relation and induces imitative encounters.”[4] Similarly, in her book Obama is Brazilian, Emanuelle Oliveira-Monte singles out what Sampson calls the “empathic virality of love” mobilized by the Obama campaign to explain the “universal appeal” of Obama himself. “Turning Software Inside Out: A Review of FLOSS +Art and Software Studies”, Mute Magazine, 2009.
