"Far above information is gathered, collected, processed. From this vantage point, borders are data points, just more manipulations of the land below. Territories are clearly demarcated, and where there is unclarity, there is tension. Over time, the information is the landscape, there is little need for physicality - it is just digested and stored like everything else. The engine is ever hungry."
