Abstract

This contribution forms part of a larger work exploring the telematic culture in which we now live. It is both essay and programme (a complex system of inherent virtualities that will inevitably be realised via components of chance). It is concerned with freedom and the human spirit (matter and mind as energy in flux). It is a meditation on the unique form of thinking we call writing. Its ideas are both explicitly and implicitly communicated (though it is undoubtedly imperfect and at times contradictory). And in the interests of freedom and beauty, I shall say no more about it…
