ADJACENT POSSIBLE, adjacent possible, adjacent possible is a door where one could use and go to many places with the help of its imagination- if one tries. That is one of Addie's main point in her book/reading. What's the connection between her reading and mine? I have lots and lots of adjacent possible, too much that its making our brain overflow- too much is not a great thing though.
Yes I have no grudge against the adjacent possible, Heaven's no, it's just that I hate the people who over use it. Over using something is not a good thing ya' know. Like what I wrote, or Mr. Carr wrote, people are getting dumber as we rely more and more to our Internet. Addie's blog also talks about the other mediums, but in The Shallows? Those other mediums becomes either obsolete or slowly inherited by the internet, forcing the adjacent possible in those mediums to go into the void too. The Television (We can now search movies on Demand, browse the Net, and others! Furthermore, you don't even have to buy a T.V., you can just watch it in your computer, thanks to the Internet), News (Yahoo NEWS, The Chicago Tribune, Time Magazine,etc. they are in the computer now! We can now bomb the printing company, thanks to the Internet), radio (you can check out the live broadcast in your computer without the hassle to buy a radio, thanks to the internet), and books (Kindle is pretty bad*ss, you can go to links, surf the net, check out your e-mail, facebook, buy stuff in e-bay, WOAH WOAH WOAH wait a minute, its not a book anymore huh? thanks to the Internet) are some of the mediums that the internet has slowly, but surely, being taken away. When we combine everything, it is but a big pile of distraction, but, is there any ANY possibility that they are all in one big present? The Internet man, the internet. But how do we work with this medium is a thing that we must change. Others work with this adjacent possible in a good way, like Addie pointed out in her blog, people in Egypt congregate using the Net. I'm proud of them, I'm proud of them.
If I read her book deeper, I would have written more. But, even though that the old adjacent possible starts to rot away, new ones are emerging. But please, If anyone/someone/all of us/you are so suck up in the internet, go! GO! and grasp the other adjacent possible that this world, mother nature, can give you. There are a lot of them, also, you would also get inspiration- inspiration is (maybe) one of the mean of adjacent possible.
