Immediacy and metamedia. Time dimension on networks

Abstract:

Immediacy has become the dominant future of the networked society. In this new digital universe, everything is “installed” in present time; past and future are blurred to build a constant present. Everything takes place in a constant transition around a Moebius strip, the temporal space. A space where the timelessness of a “suspended life” is also built, and where the “right to oneself” no longer exists. In the digital world, people do not belong to themselves, they simply “are”. “To be”, though, does not mean a control over individuality, as in every part the whole is reflected, and this whole is made up of those parts included in the idea of instant.
