I see all of life as a giant slime mold that's existed for a few
billions years, and we're a marvelous part of it - and
everything we create become part of its biology, including the
Internet.
I like my viewpoint here because it ALSO encompasses things that
appear invisible to us, like communication, talking, thinking,
typing, etc and moves us away from the 'we're just brains in
meatbags" view we're taught.
