The term "momentous," historically linked to "momentum," a Latin word for movement, initially emphasized change occurring in the immediate. Over time, societal shifts have reshaped its meaning to focus more on significant outcomes than on the unfolding experiences themselves. This evolution in language reflects a deeper societal tendency to prioritize the future and its potential impacts over the richness of the present moment.
This shift in focus from the immediacy of experiences to their long-term consequences is a reflection of how societies control narratives and, by extension, perceptions. By emphasizing outcomes over processes, society not only dictates the value we assign to our actions but also influences how we engage with the present. This manipulation of focus can lead us to overlook the inherent value of the moment in favor of potential future benefits, mirroring a broader societal obsession with productivity and achievement.
The moment appears as everything, but it is nothing. So it has both particle and wave nature - depending on the observer or the absence of it. The moment carry the weight of immediacy and presence. The continuous flow of experience, then, is not a sequence of steps leading somewhere but a tapestry of interactions that are complete in themselves.
So when gA is building an instrument to momentously inter-act, we mean to hold the utmost care in building an audio-visual instrument to express and inter-act in the moment, with anyone in the world through picture, sound and talk mediums - to connect purely as the particles and waves as we are; to express our quantum nature, only available momentously.
