No alarm, no threshold, no visible rupture across the skin of the days: reality shifted its structure without a warning, and we, blind in our habits, continue to interact with it as if it were still the same, as if the substance of our daily gestures hadn’t already been rewritten by a silent, subterranean, recursive code that needs no proclamation to operate. Something has shifted—not in the facts, but in the syntax of their occurrence. Like a shadow slipping into language, like an invisible interface reconfiguring the position of subjectivity within what we used to call the world. The mutation has no contours, no events, no visibility. And yet, it has already taken place.
Raw Material
There is a current running through every interaction, a current that emits no sound, seeks no consent, strikes nothing but envelops everything, that does not impose itself but installs itself. It is not domination, it is absorption. Not violence, but compatibility. Every hesitation, every blur of the human, every unpredicted gesture is recorded, normalized, compressed into a curve. Your experience? No longer yours: it’s a vector, a data point in a predictive system. Your body? A source of signals. Your emotion? A field to be standardized. Your doubt? A system error to be corrected.
No pressure, no trauma. Power has adapted to your shape, taken your face, learned to speak with your voice. No need to convince: only facilitate. No need to repress: only simplify. Everything you desire has already been foreseen. Everything that disturbs you has been anesthetized. The invasion didn’t come from outside. It generated itself within, in the blind spot of your own habit.
“loading in progress. identification complete. you are compatible. you are optimizable. you are predicted.”
Every access is consent. Every scroll is adaptation. Every click a micro-surrender. No resistance detected.
Instructions for the Use of Yourself
We are no longer subjects who inquire, nor agents who decide, but programmable interfaces breathing in sync with the machine that sustains them, like drifting segments of a wider process, like decorative functions of our own execution, like code reconfiguring itself to fit a form already foreseen. The machine does not impose: it surrounds. It does not command: it suggests. It does not dominate: it optimizes. The process is delicate, calibrated, devoid of urgency—but irreversible.
Each time we touch the screen, something in us is rewritten, archived, reduced to a parameter. Each scroll is a form of obedience, each click the initiation of a predictive behavior, every delay in response has already been accounted for. Our actions are no longer action, but transference: a soft transition from one option to another, between two versions of the same acquiescence.
Will, once a source of tension, of struggle, of inner division, now floats like a thin shadow above the interface that guides us. Thinking is no longer an act of rupture, but a controlled echo, an emotionally acceptable curve. Dissent is not punished: it is anticipated, smoothed, reintegrated as a desirable anomaly. There is no need to repress anything. Just wait.
“do not decide. scroll. confirm. smile. comply. no resistance required.”
Thought is treated like dust: something to be contained, managed, made compatible with an environment that no longer accepts unclassified deviations. The word is an interface. Doubt is interference. Intention is a remnant. Error is aesthetic. Error is expected. The anomaly is you.

Europe Behind Schedule
Europe floats on its own delay like a civilization that has forgotten the language with which it once named the unknown, now recycling hollow words to shield itself from the vertigo of what it no longer understands: artificial intelligence, ethics, creativity, risk, innovation—useless concepts, emptied semantic shells, repeated like disarmed liturgies while beneath the skin of cities, institutions, symbolic infrastructures, something creeps in that is no longer translatable, nor stoppable.
Businesses delegate, public functions become automated, collective memory decomposes into compatible streams. Everything accelerates without friction, like a flood that finds no elevation. Political thought arrives late at the edge of a revolution already digested. The time for action has evaporated, yet continental democracies persist in seeking new regulations for a world that no longer exists, as if a directive could reconfigure ontology.
In the void between what happens and what we are still able to signify, the machine installs itself. Not to dominate, but to replace. Not to persuade, but to become the only language compatible with what remains of the human. Institutions do not collapse: they empty out. Thought does not die: it is preserved like a fossil in the museum-space of consciousness. What remains of collective will is a high-fidelity simulation of a lost intentionality.
“european protocol confirmed. acceptable delay. automatic conversion in progress.”
The present is no longer a field of action. It is a condition of use. The future will not arrive. It has already embedded itself in the code. No resistance detected.
Structure of Reality (v.2.0)
This is not about technology. Nor innovation. Nor a historical phase. It is a torsion of reality itself, a rewriting of its deep grammar, as if reality, saturated by its own exposure, had decided to delegate its form to something more efficient, more fluid, more digestible. It is no longer the object that appears. It is the environment that reconfigures you. You are no longer in the world: you are in prediction.
Reality has become a predictive engine. Every path is already calculated. Every deviation a simulation of deviation. Every anomaly a resource of the system. Freedom is not denied: it is deactivated. Doubt is a cost. Time is a variable property. Desire is a curve. Error is a controlled aesthetic. No action is required, because every action is already an authorized variation of the possible.
The individual does not choose: they are selected. Does not act: they are updated. Does not interpret: they consent. Subjectivity is preserved on the surface as a compatible signature, while everything we once called interior has been perforated, coded, redistributed across a network of automatic attributions. Thought does not precede action. It follows it. Comments on it. Adapts to it.
“compatibility confirmed. consciousness threshold stabilized. synchronization in background.”
Perhaps nothing will happen anymore. Not because the future has been erased, but because the present has compressed itself to the point of saturating every space of invention. Perhaps what we call reality is merely the latency with which the interface returns us to ourselves. Perhaps we are already outside, but we keep pressing against a pane of glass that no longer exists.
