Paul Virilio is the preeminent theorist of the configurations of globalization and technology, the mass-mediation of the city, the militarization of architecture, the virtualization of cinema, the simulation of transportation and the mechanization of social space. What is speed actually? Speed produces a flickering, which leads to temporary going blind; the details of the world disappear. With increasing speed a linearity and a straight-lineness develop as per Virilio.
