Tatsächlich scheint mir das einen recht plausiblen Schritt vorwärts, wenn wir uns den Aufmerksamkeitsraub deutlicher stellen würden, indem wir einen größtmöglichen Abstand vom täglichen Geschehen eingewinnen.

"Everything that happens between particles is in the form of photons, or light. It's not just communication between one molecule and another, it's the creation of particles themselves. It's what's called peer-creation, when a photon creates a particle."

This light on the nature of communication, not as something that happens between people, but as a process of its own, is in line with the Luhmannian notion of communication.

The application to daily life, however, is still in its infancy.
