00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:09,000
THE NETWORK FACTOR

2
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:14,000
There are components, which appear as individuals. 

3
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,000
And there are links, which exist between them. 

4
00:00:19,500 --> 00:00:23,500
And finally the network, which is the sum of individuals and their links. 

5
00:00:24,500 --> 00:00:29,000
I don't want to cause trouble, 
but exactly WHAT are my connections to this collective? 

6
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:35,000
Am I part of a decentralized world, 
where it doesn't matter if a component drops out?

7
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,000
"Failed connection attempt..."

8
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:44,000
If the protocols for co-existence have suddenly changed, 

9
00:00:44,500 --> 00:00:47,000
or if I have lost my connections... 

10
00:00:47,500 --> 00:00:49,000
am I an island then?

11
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:51,000
Outside?

12
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,000
Isolated?

13
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:54,500
Loose?

14
00:00:55,500 --> 00:00:57,000
Free.
