  Cyberspace now appears to be the newest frontier. The Internet is organized in a radically spatial manner; it is datacentric and hypertextual, based on simultaneity, not on continuity. Issues of time, narrative and making meaning are much less relevant in the Internet model. Computer memory is independent of affect and the vicissitudes of time, politics and history; it has no patina of history, and everything has the same digital texture. On the blue screen two scenarios of memory are possible: a total recall of undigested information bytes or an equally total amnesia that could occur in a heartbeat with a sudden technical failure.

  The recent phenomenon of video recording someone's home life on a home‐ page gives a whole new meaning to the expression "being at home." Being at home in this self-imposed panopticon scenario means being watched or being a voyeur, for no particular political reasons. For all participants in this interaction, privacy becomes vicarious and virtual; no longer the property of a single individual, it turns into a space of projection and interaction. No wonder an Internet artist recently named her daughter E (reminding me of the Russian dystopian novel We written eighty years ago, where the citizens of the Single State were called by a single letter). The mother did not wish to oppress her daughter with her choice of a name and left it as interactive as possible, remarking only that for her, E stands for "entropy." 3

  Kant once wrote that space is public and time is private. Now it seems that the opposite is true; we might have more private space (if we are lucky) but less and less time, and with it less patience for cultural differences in understanding time. Space is expandable into many dimensions; one has more and more homes in the span of one's life, real and virtual; one criss-crosses more borders. As for time, it is forever shrinking. Oppressed by multitasking and managerial efficiency, we live under a perpetual time pressure. The disease of this millennium will be called chronophobia or speedomania, and its treatment will be embarrassingly old-fashioned. Contemporary nostalgia is not so much about the past as about the vanishing present.

The discoverers of the Internet borrowed key metaphors of philosophical and literary discourse—virtual reality comes from Bergson's theory of consciousness, hypertext, from narrative theories of intertextuality—which were then regarded as the exclusive property of the new media. The Internet also took over elements of pastoral imagery and "Western" genres (e.g., the global village, homepages and the frontier mentality). The new media redefined the architecture of space with a "superhighway," villages and chatrooms—all evidence that the Internet foregrounds pastoral suburbia and the romance of the highway and domestic morality tales over the ruins of the metropolis. E-mail, however, offered the possibility of instant intimacy; the more distant the correspondents, the more intensely they shared their innermost secrets in all late-night languages.
