hyperpresence

— When the hierarchical organization of space that privileges the eye and vision, this perspective simulation - for it is merely a simulacrum - disintegrates, something else emerges; this we express as a kind of touch, for lack of a better term, a tactile hyperpresence of things, “as if we could grasp them.” But this tactile fantasy has nothing to do with our sense of touch: it is a metaphor for “seizure,” the annihilation of the scene and space of representation.
