"Our experience in a "hyperreal" world (held in the grip of simulacra and where nothing is unmediated) is one in which media and medium are not simply located in their own hermetically sealed spaces, but dispersed around us, in all forms of experience." see: reality/hyperreality, (2): "No more violence or surveillance, only 'information,'...and simulacra of spaces where the real-effect comes into play...There is no longer any medium in the literal sense: it is now intangible, diffuse and diffracted in the real" (54). Jean Baudrillard quoted in Sandoz 2003. See Brian Massumi, "Realer than Real"
