[-empyre-] Mez Breeze [_Netwurker_]: Resolution for Digital Futures

"exchange[rs]"?

think ov a: "...fluid process of content absorption and production,
social data surging and information engagement" via "...types of
unintentional and deliberately augmented recreation. These recreation
types are reliant on immediacy of response, play, and Pranksterism.
They employ Sandboxing, Gonzoism and spontaneous engagement. This type
of entertainment is termed _Presencing_.
...Examples include the Streisand Effect, Supercutting, Flashmobbing,
the Slashdot/Digg Effect, acts by the group Anonymous, Geohashing,
Image macro generation and Internet meme threading. Less defined
examples include: MMOG guild interactions [think: user generated
games-within-games], Virtual World involvements, and Social Networking
via application adoption and creation...Presencing showcases
accidental or reflexive entertainment elements where the
fictional/non-fictional divide is erased; associated validity
qualifiers are also removed and reconceptualised. Amateur production
is equated with valued expression."
