The /Printed/ Mind: A /Collapse /of Memory

In an age where selfhood is interrupted, updated, and surrounded by external data, the mind is no longer an inner realm. It is printed, replicated, and exposed.

A thought is now recognized even before it forms. Algorithms calculate interest; attention becomes a statistical habit. Memory ceases to be a personal accumulation and turns into an externally arranged archive. The mind is edited like a document/divided into paragraphs, labeled with headings, made ready to be consumed.

Humans no longer think; they merely carry thoughts that circulate among others.
And they believe what they carry belongs to them.

Conversations are copied. Identities are rewritten. Emotions are represented before they are felt. The face is not merely a face it is an interface. The eyes function like portals, receiving data. Memory is no longer an archive, but a flow. And in that flow, hardly anyone pauses long enough to return to themselves.

The mind is no longer an emptiness.
That emptiness has been filled with the voices of others.
And while everything seems so clear, a question quietly rises:
Who’s speaking inside your head?
