cold-blooded old times.

when did televisions become almost-living things? we're at a point now where the television is no longer a durable room centerpiece, but instead a fragile shrine to luminosity. the monitor is no longer a glass bubble; it's a seemingly-permeable protective membrane, barely separating us from the plasma within.

like i told my grandmother a few weeks ago when she was playing with my iphone:
we're in the future. we've made it.
