How technology creates, as well as inverts, consecrated space
As King writes, the sacred site — whether a conventional holy place or a more informal colloquial space in which to rise above the everyday — is not some fixed portal to an unchanging other zone. Rather a sacred site is the product of a collective intention to defer, alter, and rearrange the assumptions and expectations and categories that stabilize and constrict daily life, peeling away the world’s oppressive specificity. Sacred sites are not inherently sacred by virtue of where they are, but become sacred by virtue of the behavior they coordinate.
