[Nettime-bold] ..they manipulate the tools of power in a parody of greatness.. |
There are now two kinds of memory. One is related to structures. Each structure is self-fulfilling and self-perpetuating. The memories they produce are therefore internal, logical and unattached to the outer world. The other sort is eclectic: one-off memories. People. Places. Events. This is the memory of a McLuhanesque world in which there is no sentence structure and no order. The mind soars and dives, like a gull over a vast municipal garbage dump. What is missing is linear memory -- that is to say, the historical view. We may remember the events of two days ago, but cannot remember the passage of the two days...All words are neither true nor false without this linear pattern in the mind...
