00:00 Edia is enfolded in information space
00:50 it is an entity distributing the self in a constellation of points around the globe. The points are personified by 'friends' in dialog.
01:06 the basic unit of Edia is a spherical point. one begets another. from worlds come worlds, where none is prime.
01:51 all surfaces are covered in video.
02:08 video is bound by pixels: each possesses knowledge of the whole.
02:39 on the surface of the sphere the horizon is continuous.
03:44 the network connects all points.
03:51 our network makes us all visible to one another. with horizon collapsed, we live inside
04:20 within the point; space is imagined as occupying the center -- the perspective of the network.
05:29 the point emerges from an ellipse into a cylindrical passage. A network byway that connects hole to whole.
06:30 perspective is established by the eye.
07:20 The eye acts as both witness and writer, encoding the seen into memories that are seeded into the cloud below it.
08:10 Edia is comprised of a network of emotives. The network has a molecular quality, its bonds of audiovisual sequences play in the emotives nodes.
11:11 shells envelope one another, each, a dimension that influences the direction taken at the center.
11:40 at the center: direction of thought is decided. It is the result of a complex interaction of memory, desire and the emotivational.
13:01 Possibles and Incompossibles: forces of perception and imagination are stimulated.
The actual materializes, overwriting the cascades of incompossibles.
14:40 while an individual is situated in a single body, its counterpart, the dividual, is distributed to multiple bodies through communication, emotings and associations.
16:04 frequency's value produces character that is attributed to matter
19:04 the Surrounds constitute an ambient system of influencing. An ecliptic of institutions in orbit around us, a cycling of effects. Each of us its subject and each subject to one another.
20:45 the Surrounds boundary is a shell, beyond which, the appearances of pasts and futures, take the shape of here and now.
