I really hope that one day, that guy’s answer...

I call myself Saman, others do too.

So this guy, Warwick Murray, wrote a book and named it the Geographies of Globalisation. In it, he spends an adequate amount of time explaining Anthony Gidden's concept of time-space distanciation. Murray refers to it as the, "stretching of social systems across space and time".

This blog is rooted in the notion of time-space distanciation. Human interactions have increasingly gained distance from time and space, and have consequently become immune to their constraints. Although the notion of time-space distanciation was constructed based on the rise of telecommunications, I find it to stand true for all social systems, particularly those related to media and the arts.

These posts - when they are not unapologetically pretentious or reflecting my infatuations and dissaprovals - demonstrate the connections stuff have with other stuff. A bunch of bull excrements, you say? Well...maybe.

I really hope that one day, that guy’s answer would be considered completely conventional. Where humanoids and non-humanoids alike will travel the universe and stop at random planets for the usual reasons travellers stop. And the species of different planets would connect with each other through their mutual distrust of the intergalactic government.
