Hacking [breaking boundaries, making the seemingly impossible possible by pure force of will] is the archetypal example of this. Obviously, the discipline is not new and has been present for thousands of years, any sort of artistic/creative process encapsulates it. The arrival of cyberspace however and its subsumption of more and more aspects of our everyday lives acts as a positive feedback loop. What was unthinkable or even heretical 20-30 years ago is now routine. In a sense, we are witnessing a new paradigm shift where the intermediate substrates (mind/inception to manifestation) are being dissolved and the feedback loop gets shorter.
