"During our everyday life, we are surrounded by natural and manmade electromagnetic noise in a wide range of frequencies and magnitudes. The manmade electromagnetic noise is relatively new and many efforts have been made to understand its interaction with biological systems. Natural electromagnetic noise, on the other hand, exists since the early days of Earth, thus surrounding us throughout our evolutionary history."

"‘Time’ has ceased, ‘space’ has vanished. We now live in a global
village… a simultaneous happening. We are back in acoustic space.
We have begun again to structure the primordial feeling, the tribal
emotions from which a few centuries of literacy divorced us. Electric circuitry profoundly involves men with one another. Information pours upon us, instantaneously and continuously. As soon as information is acquired, it is very rapidly replaced by still newer information. Our electricity-configured world has forced us to move from the bait of data classification to the mode of pattern recognition. We can no longer build serially, block by block, step by step, because instant communication ensures that all factors of the environment and of experience coexist in a state of active interplay. We have now become aware of the possibility of arranging the entire human environment as a work of art."
