Jean Baudrillad argued that once one has passed beyond this point of detachment from the real, the process becomes irreversible. We will no longer be able to find the objects and events that existed before the cyber immersion. We will not be able to find the history that had been before cyberspace. The original essence of art, the original concept of history have disappeared, all now is part of a real-time holistic data sphere inseparable from its models of perfection and simulation. The cyberspace compressed the time and space to a short circuit hyper-reality.
The cyberspace is the "meme" database for further construction/deconstruction of net audiovisual mutual memory sequences consumed by other cyber-flâneurs.
Google, YouTube and its partners become a giant hub, dominating cyber-culture, global networked economy, surfers' language and behavior. The Cyberspace is an extension of our foot, eye skin and nervous system positioned on torus-like topology. The real and the virtual are one…

Subject: Re: [Yasmin_discussions] AROUND SIMULATION and Time
Dear All,
It would be interesting to hear your idea's concerning simulation and time:
It seems that simulations and simulation technologies, in particular the ones that simulate the invisible, also work as catalysts that speed up processes. As our technologies are limited to what we can or can not see, how does simulation as 'virtual tool' integrate a time efficiency aspect?
There is also a preservation aspect:
As technologies come and go, (technological) art preservation, has become a real issue within cultural institutes. I was talking to a friend and she mentioned the process called Emulation, which helps preserve 'old' artworks made with 'old' technlogy. Where new software emulates old software. http://www.variablemedia.net/e/echoes/index.html
Or any other relations with Time?
Jennifer
