This chapter explores the affective climate of immediate modernity: anxiety. Under technocapital, acceleration has ceased to signify liberation and now represents a grammar of regulation. Drawing from Fisher, Beck and others, this chapter explores how regulation is no longer resisted by capital but absorbed into it, materialising an ambient architecture of control. Accelerationism is reframed as a failed escape route: one that capital has metabolised into a means of managing affect, attention, and time. Anxiety, then, is not a symptom, but a structuring principle of immediate capital.
