we are the architects of
a multitude of misperception
mirroring infinitely upon itself
creating a cacophony of feedback
that shakes me awake
we are the intersection of
space-time and self-reflection
a mirror of divinity within the self
it hides in the silence
behind your eyes' back
Are you sure you're awake?

THE MEDIUM IS THE MESSAGE.
Marshall McLuhan's Four Laws of Media:
1. Extension/Enhancement: Every technology extends or amplifies some organ or faculty of the user. What does the medium enhance or intensify?
2. Closure/Obsolescence: Because there is equilibrium in sensibility, when one area of experience is heightened or intensified, another is diminished or numbed. What is pushed aside or obsolesced by the new medium?
3. Reversal: Every form, pushed to the limit of its potential, reverses its characteristics.
4. Retrieval: The content of any medium is an older medium.
