Innis

For the first time in the history of networked communication the architecture is not working against you. That is not nothing. In a world where every digital commons has been enclosed and sold and the enclosure was built into the foundation from the start, a foundation that does not betray is something close to what the word miracle is supposed to mean. Paul told the Corinthians they were the body of Christ individually and together. Tear down the building and the body walks out and finds another room. But the body itself, the specific configuration of these particular people with their particular gifts and failures and history, no architecture creates that and no architecture replaces it.
