Another guest post in this series from our friend, the British commercial semiotician Louise Jolly.

Call this [cultural/category] code: Splitting the Instant.
Definition: Digital technology gives us sensory superpowers. It has become so high-definition and super-sensitive it opens up the quantum complexity within each moment.

Notes on this code: Visuals show swirling, floating nebulae, forms in-formation. We’ve gone beyond everyday sense perception to witness its constitution.
