Re: <nettime> NOTHING WORSE

No Crisis. Everything is True. Nothing is Permitted.

Looking is much faster; it is the medium of the media, the most rapid 
one. Everything must come into play instantaneously. We never communicate. 
In the to-and-fro of communication, the instantaneity of looking, light 
and seduction is already lost.

But against the acceleration of networks and circuits, we will also look 
for slowness; not the nostalgic slowness of the mind, but insoluble 
immobility, the slower than slow; inertia and silence, inertia insoluble 
by effort, silence insoluble by dialogue. There is a secret here too.
