"To prefer the illusions of networks - drawing on the absolute speed of electronic impulses, which give, or claim, to give, instantaneously what time accords only gradually - means not only making light of geographical dimensions, as the acceleration of rapid vehicles has been doing for more than a century now, but, above all, hiding the future in the ultra-short time-span of telematic "live transmission". It means making the future no longer appear to exist by having it happen now".
Paul Virilio
"You remind me of the perceptive asylum keeper who claimed that his inmates were mad"
