Infinite
shelf space (example iTunes)
many downloads available in just one site, multifarious ways objects such as tunes can occupy dimensions can be found and reppropriated. Selling a large number of things, online-commerce. Invert traditional form of the market.

Anarchism,
people control on their own media instead of being controlled by it.
Forms of
new media affecting the older mainstream media, broadcast are accompanied by
web page links. Encouraged to broadcast themselves to be visible.
Browsing,
explorative and voyeuristic, individual pages are encouraged to be customized.
Users of
social network not bounded by physical location but united through shared
interest with the new self-definition by media.
“in the
future Everybody will be famous for fifteen minutes” Andy Warhol.
Entering a
new ”participatory culture” of greater cooperation or solidarity, or
alternatively our digital culture runs the risk of producing a pandemonium of
competing media noise, self-promotion and meaningless disembodied interaction,
in an increasingly atomized society.
We are
bound together but separated by the globalized network of information
communication technologies.
Rewriting
the term of “friendship” , politics of friendship. New conception between self, and other and
new understanding of community.
