"A consensual hallucination experienced daily by billions of legitimate operators, in every nation, by children being taught mathematical concepts...A graphic representation of data abstracted from the banks of every computer in the human system. Unthinkable complexity. Lines of light ranged in the nonspace of the mind, clusters and constellations of data. Like city lights, receding." This is a time of amped-up machismo; of commenters at a distance; of virtual slime that lubricates the macrosystems of capital; of bombastic music designed to force us to feel something, anything; of mass incarceration and phony colorblindness; of moving like a spirit through endless aisles in the incessant ritual of buying. It is a time of access. Everything can be had, even the past, which results in an implosion of time as nostalgia is commodified and traded and all of society melds into a slimy oneness: the monoculture. http://fantasypark.bandcamp.com/album/haunts User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
