no it's not bullshit; I'm working through ontologies and epistemologies of avatars/the virtual, using both formal topology and Buddhist philosophy, specifically several works by Nagarjuna as well as the Hevajratantra and Visuddhimaggha. Terms like the true world reference emptiness and the absence of worlding, 'gathering' references aggregrates, and filtering comes from things I've written before on inscription. Since you've called it bullshit, I really don't want to engage in a debate about its merits and if Marc wants I'll desist here, but from my end (and for that matter the reading of other people I respect) I'm on to something and want to follow it through; certainly it's relevant literally to netbehaviour.
