It’s been some time since our last update. As Orson Wells
used to say “We will serve no wine before its time”. We also want to reassure
our readers that we a the netage we are not concerned about “high net
worth” but about high network.
The changes ushered by the Net in the last few years have
been astounding. These changes might not be all that visible to the naked eye
but they have mutated into novel forms of communication. Since our last posting,
a lot of data and ideas have been fermenting the Web. Expanding its infinite
memory. Easily accessible to the benefit of all. We repeat, the medium is the
message and the message is interactivism.
Bye, bye to one way <- media misinformation &
disinformation…
The more i ponder on the subject the more i see the Net as
a subversive and subliminal tool. In the sense that the Internet acts beyond the
threshold of consciousness. It is subversive in the way it interacts and works
from within, from an invisible and undetectable sphere. Nevertheless, it IS
“here, there and everywhere” to quote the Beatles.
Some pundits have called the Internet the “Second Super
Power”. Nonsense, super power is a term that relates to the past second
millennium. It implies a power that originates from “above”. A deist theocracy
disguised as Judeo-Christianity. It points to the image of the all seeing eye on
top of the pyramid as depicted on the US dollar. This hierarchical power source,
we believe, is at crossroad and is faced with no sustainable made-up villain to
justify its own power structure.
The Internet transcends hierarchy. It is a non-linear force
to be reckoned with: Omnipotent, omniscient and omnificent. It is a power that
is all pervasive, present everywhere, all knowing and with unlimited creative
powers. These attributes were formally used to describe the divine. They are
used here as an analogy to explain the linking forces pervasive in the Net.
Things are moving along nicely for the Net. The medium’s
evolution is right on track. We foresee the greatest beneficiaries of
“interactivism” to be the disaffected and the emerging economies. By disaffected
we mean those who are alienated and estranged from the malignant corporate
mentality that we call here the “Incorporated Body” and its political arm “desinformocracy”.
Shalom!
