We
may sometimes enter an invisible mode when we are alone, ignoring all social
rites such as eye contact and conversations of mere formality. Invisible and
silent notwithstanding, our ears are attentive to the conversations occurring
in different groups. Shuttling among different realms, I’m covered with
invisible powder so that no one can see me.
This “quasi-sampling” concept transforms private conversations into public ones. The openness of radio broadcast forces the listeners to intervene in part of others’ lives, and eavesdropping is the only available option. Welcome to the world of “being” XX here and elsewhere.
