Faster than Reality itself

In the ever expanding digital universe, reality can be processed faster than it can be experienced.

I can copy a two minute video in fifteen seconds, but I still have to spend at least two minutes viewing time to fully appreciate, or understand the original video.

Our reality is expanding and modifying faster than we can make sense of it.  Our brains are not designed to efficiently work with this volume of sensory data and cannot adequately predict which data will be most important.  We are dangerously susceptible to the effects of propaganda that is intentional or accidentally produced.

Like a child running down hill, or a novice backing up a tractor trailer, we risk instability, and we love it.
