“Next Time” editorial

We no longer know how to wait.
Everything has become instantaneous, in ‘real time’, as people have been saying for a few years now. The key word is ‘simultaneous’. I write an email and wait for an immediate response. If it does not arrive, I get annoyed: why does he not reply? The epistolary exchange used to be the place of deferred time. Envelopes came and went at a slow pace. Not to mention the instant messaging systems we resort to: WhatsApp. Banging and replying. Yet everything around us seems marked by waiting: gestation, adolescence, adulthood. There is a time for everything, and it is never an immediate time.

– Marco Belpoliti, In praise of waiting in the WhatsApp era
