In the continuation of the paragraph already quoted Tavris continues to quote Scott and writes:
"With the prospect of this digital fourth dimension, a moment can feel strangely flat if it exists solely in itself', he writes. Moments that are untweeted or uninstagrammed come to seem lifeless, incomplete; "It has become part of the rhythms of almost every waking hour to look for a word or a sign from elsewhere". Because "everywhereness" demands a blurring of here and there, it "can produce a sense of absenteeism, and the suspicion that, despite being in many places at once, we're not fully inhabiting any of them".Place may be the more readily recognized, the easier, area in which we identify this "everywhereness" (after all, the word "area" already denotes physical location), but we encounter it in time as well. If you're not in any particular place, you might as well be anywhere, and if you're not in any particular time you might as well be anytime. Which suggests that this is the right time (and place?) to return to a classic quote from the Firesign Theater.
