Can you please provide complete bibliographic information on this very interesting text?
Mind is saturation soup, one seed crystal: emergent song. Forked paths tuning. Tallis motets up spiralling chimneys. Drowning out, diving down, profanity, cacophany, epiphany. But, but, but, to do it all unplugged….!

Is the Internet Changing the Way You Think?: The Net’s Impact on Our Minds and Future – edited by John Brockman – HarperCollins, 2011 978-0062020444
interesting –
Thank you.
Yes I think it does. The way we think is part of culture, it is to a large extent, I think, not following fixed laws of the brain but programmed and changable “laws” of culture. Inventions that change the way we store, process and transport information have a strong impact (writing, printing and above all the internet).
I confidently agree with that.
