cyphon


a mash-up of “cyber” and “siphon”, describing the movement of attention from meatsp-ce to cybersp-ce. as a noun, it could be any site (social or not) that draws attention away from meatsp-ce. you don’t necessarily need to be in front of a screen to be affected by a cyphon. your continued use of a social site could change the fundamental way you act and interact within meatsp-ce, e.g. having lunch with your friend and trying not to let the gorgeous plate of fries cypyhon your attention to what filter you’d want to use when you post a picture of it to instagram.

specifically, the word cyphon is about how meatsp-ce is augmented, detracted from or otherwise enhanced and diminished by the various online worlds that reflect and inform our daily lives.
