"...The Dis-reality is a reality that dis-realizes us as people, 
communities, landscapes, contexts, cities. Do we have to call it reality 
even when it dis-realizes us? It is rather a dis-reality. Moreover, this is 
a reality we clearly recognize as something built by the great powers of 
image and communication, creative imagination and industry of culture. 
People must understand that just as such dis-reality unites us on one hand 
as goods, consumers, labels, on the other it divides us as labels, names, 
races, ideologies and different traditions.This dis-reality is then both 
physical (it can materialize in a frontier, on a wall, within a fence or 
building, and even in the destruction of a building) and metaphysical (such 
as virtuality, where the use of dis-reality is effective - for it requires a 
very strong materiality, like for instance time spending - but at the same 
time has not a physicalness of its own)..."

Herman Bashiron Mendolicchio
