da viscosidade

"The more I struggle to understand hyperobjects, the more I discover that I am stuck to them. They are all over me. They are me. I feel like Neo in The Matrix, lifting to his face in horrified wonder his hand coated in the mirrorlike substance into which the doorknob has dissolved, as his virtual body begins to disintegrate."
Timothy Morton, in Hyperobjects, Philosophy and Ecology after the End of the World

"Objects in mirror are closer then they appear."
"The mirror itself has become part of my flesh. Or rather, I have become part of the mirror's flesh, reflecting hyperobjects everywhere. I can see data on the mercury and other toxins in my blood. At Taipei Airport, a few weeks after the Fukushima disaster, I am scanned for radiation since I have transited in Tokyo. Every attempt to pull myself free by some act of cognition renders me more hopelessly stuck to hyperobjects."
Timothy Morton, in Hyperobjects, Philosophy and Ecology after the End of the World
