As pioneers of the "Influencer" mode of production, the Kardashians algorithmically distributed themselves across platforms, spawning infinite copies of their image. 

"Each of these image-copies becomes a node in the Kardashian Image Complex, an ever-expanding web of representation that constitutes the family’s cultural presence. They exist somewhere between flesh and digital image, spread across multiple platforms and realities, their physical forms merely nodes in an endless circuit of technological reproduction."
