Quotes by Valentina Tanni (?)

“[…] è impossibile non leggere in questa tendenza il tentativo di provocare uno stato di flusso. Tenendo occupate tutte le aree del cervello, infatti, è possibile raggiungere una specie di trance da concentrazione […] che porta anche a disconnettersi momentaneamente dalla realtà.
[…] La distrazione diventa dunque uno stato permanente, sostenuto dall'acquisizione di una nuova abilità: quella di occupare tutto lo spazio mentale disponibile.”
― Valentina Tanni, Exit reality: Vaporwave, backrooms, weirdcore e altri paesaggi oltre la soglia

“[…] il passato è irrimediabilmente perduto, e anche se potessimo tornarci, lo troveremmo deserto, perché nessuno lo abita più. […] La nostalgia nei confronti di momenti della vita che percepiamo come più semplici e spensierati – o semplicemente carichi di potenzialità – si fonde con la consapevolezza dell'irreversibilità del tempo.”
