Cybernetic Technomadic Time/Space Travel

Venice Beach, LA. February 12th 2011.


Venice Beach, LA. February 12th 2011.

Over the last year+, I moved through various states of location independence.

Here's a brief timeline of where I traveled through space/time:

Portland, OR August - November 2009 Chicago, IL November - January 2010 Brooklyn, NY January - May 2010 Oakland, CA May - October 2010 San Francisco, CA November - December 2011

...and then suddenly I've gone full blown nomadic (for the first time.)

Chicago, IL Dec 24th - Jan 4th New York, NY Jan 4th - 20th Boulder, CO Jan 20th - February 11th

I'm in LA now, February 11th-February 12th.

Projected schedule right now looks like:

San Francisco -> Chicago -> Boulder -> Austin -> Boulder -> Chicago (by May 7th) -> Melbourne, Australia

When I change surroundings, my experience of time seems to expand. January in NY seemed like a year. Boulder seemed like 10 years. I'm not sure if everyone's experience of time is changing in this way, or if it's just me and the people who surround me.

Most days I feel like more happens than did for years in my past.

After being on the road since December, I can't even remember what is still in my room in San Francisco. Physical objects hold no powerful for me. I believe this is related to expanding mental cybernetic capacities, combined delving deeper into my own true nature.

If you left San Francisco for 11 years, which were in reality only 1.5 months, would you remember?
