Ken Hollings:
"The old configurations of data streaming will eventually vanish into one another, leaving the replication of sound and vision as the sole industry standard for communication. Information ceases to be an intelligible part of the environment, but functions as an element instead: boundless, formless, creating vast artificial ecosystems out of networked systems. Like earth, air, fire and water, data will become a constituent part of physical reality, demanding an equally high degree of creative interaction. "
