Read Sloan’s Orthographic media (i.never.nu)

Maybe this is a flavor of context collapse: the standardization of all events, no matter how big or small, delightful or traumatic, to fit the same mashed-together timeline.

I like this framing of the idea of orthographic media, collapsing distance and relevance. It also makes me think of ‘s thoughts on feed reading by ‘distance’, which is an attempt to regain some focus and relevance. https://www.zylstra.org/blog/2019/06/feed-reading-by-social-distance/
