As there is no physical transportation, bodily experiences are kept behind their digital transformation. The medium, made of numbers and intangible structures, seems to be ghostly too. Our expectation of instantaneous response is markedly stressed when we are disappointed because we have to wait some minutes or even some seconds for a link in the Internet. Finally the medium allows many ways of doing things with words. Perlocutionary acts, as John Austin called them, are now possible within a worldwide digital and decentralised network, with dramatic changes in the economic and cultural fields.
Digital technology has a major impact on it.
Ghostly technology is dreaming us. There is a lot of media-smog in the air. Reality is vanishing. There is a lot of suffering, hunger and hate. We should look through the looking glass.
