“It's a story about
community and
collaboration […] about
the many wresting
power from the few
and helping one
another for nothing
and how that will not
only change the world,
but also change the
way the world
changes.” Lev
Grossman, Time
magazine, December
16, 2006.

“Mediality develops antibodies to avoid forms of betrayal, estrangement
and definitive break. [...] Mediality then becomes mode and attitude,
habitus of cohabitation, mentality, experiential tension that holds
together what is lived and media, by marking off escape routes from
failure, fear and by developing comforting formulas defined not only by
the important but simple being friendly.”
