As in real life, the most connected points of the basket are the strongest. As time progresses, even these loosely connected fibers begin to weave themselves together, finishing the basket at some point in the future when almost evereything is connected. Envision a conical basket whose weave is becoming tighter at one end while the other end remains loose and unconnected, fibers sticking out of the unfinished side of the basket. There become a range of those who are connecting more tightly together and a series of those who remain loosely connected in the analog space.

In The Railway Journey, Schivelbusch examines the origins of this industrialized consciousness by exploring the reaction in the nineteenth century to the first dramatic avatar of. Each reported moment becomes social capital, increasing the amount of embeddedness that networks and nodes have with each other.Īs node distance decreases, communication becomes more liquid, and digital geography between two people, thoughts, ideas, or groups becomes more instantly traversed. The Space of Glass Architecture was published in The Railway Journey on page 45. In the end, all text becomes linkable, all history becomes linkable to the future, every moment capable of being saved, reported, commented on and played back in slow or fast motion. People begin to become hyperlinks, text begins to become social objects, developing personality and having social value. In the same way that a cell phone opens up a wormhole between two users for a limited amount of time, social networks open up wormholes to each other through text, creating invisible, 4th dimensional wormholes from person to object to person to object through text.

The railway journey : the industrialization of time and space in the 19th century. 4 The French were unable to perceive coal as an endlessly available fuel because of the physical reality of the concentration of English coal production. As technosocial humans we are no longer living in one place at one time. The land between the mines and the river Tyne became covered by a dense network of railways, which were used only to move coal. The compression and experience of space and time are becoming increasingly important. Henry Shivelbusch wrote The Railway Journey: The Industrialization and Perception of Time and Space, which concerned the altered perception of time and space at the dawn of the train industry. doi:10.The Railway Journey by Wolfgang Schivelbusch Summary London: SAGE Publications Ltd 2010: 198-515.
