“I do believe we are in the midst of a transition — intimated by the Internet — towards a more collective thinking, where the individual psyche becomes a component of a larger group mind. This doesn’t mean we stop existing as individuals, but it could mean we become more fully aware of every other living being, much in the way a coral reef’s individual organisms respond to one another as if they were part of the same, single body.” — Douglas Rushkoff

I was recently interviewed by Magda Gacyk, a San Francisco-based correspondent for Wyborcza, the most prestigious daily newspaper in Poland (akin to New York Times in the U.S.) and her article, that can be loosely translated “Prophecies of the Tech Spirituality: A New Gospel of Silicon Valley,” appeared in the last Saturday issue of November.
