Handling Multi-Tasking Plus Multiple-Tension: An Algorithmic Artificial Life of the ‘New-Net-Human’


New-Net-Human

The New Species Called ‘Net-Human’

The modern human is not merely Homo sapiens anymore; s/he is evolving into a net-human—a being deeply embedded in a multi-sensory digital web of interactions, devices, deadlines, and decisions. With this evolution comes a lifestyle where multi-tasking is default, and multiple-tension is constant. This chapter explores how this ‘net-human’ identity reflects an algorithmic artificial life, and how its rhythms, breakdowns, and breakthroughs are subtly shaping our collective future.

 

II. Defining the ‘New-Net-Human’

A new-net-human is:

  • Always plugged-in, rarely off-grid.
  • Simultaneously engaged in multiple layers of social, cognitive, and algorithmic interaction.
  • Partly human, partly programmed—trained to act with efficiency while yearning for authenticity.
  • Emotionally hybrid, balancing digital validation with existential disorientation.

This being is not fictional. It is you, me, and millions who live amidst notifications, data streams, cloud services, mental tabs, and social loops.

III. Multi-Tasking and Its Inner Mechanics

In this altered cognitive terrain, multi-tasking isn’t just switching tasks—it’s a full-blown neurological juggling act, shaped by:

  • Algorithmic time compression (do more in less time).
  • Split-attention design (UI/UX made to fragment focus).
  • Sensory overload (constant video, audio, text).
  • Subconscious automation (decision-making passed onto systems).

This is not multitasking in the old sense (writing a letter while drinking tea), but a compound state of being partially-present in 5 realities at once: work chat, Instagram scroll, Zoom call, food delivery, inner monologue.

It is task-layering, not just task-switching.

 

IV. Multiple-Tension: The Pressure Web

Parallel to multitasking is the rise of multi-tension—a simultaneous pressure system generated from:

  • Performance anxiety (digital comparison and visibility).
  • Moral uncertainty (is what I do meaningful or merely marketable?).
  • Neural fatigue (brain processing too many threads).
  • Algorithmic judgment (likes, ratings, metrics).

Here, human stress is no longer just emotional—it is computational, driven by the race between human neuroplasticity and machine efficiency.

Tension is no longer a glitch—it is a design feature.

V. The Algorithmic Artificial Life: Not Quite AI, Not Quite Human

What emerges is an algorithmic artificial life that mimics human life, but with key shifts:

Human Experience

Algorithmic Life in Net-Human

Flow from focus

Efficiency from fragmentation

Depth of emotion

Quantity of interaction

Organic decision

Predictive suggestion

Spontaneity

Patterned response

The net-human is thus semi-scripted, operating through behavioural templates subtly enforced by recommendation systems, data trails, and digital habits. S/he is increasingly “coded” in the way s/he thinks, feels, and acts.

 

VI. Impacts: Individual, Social, and Evolutionary

A. At the Individual Level

  • Cognitive overload is masked as productivity.
  • Emotional resilience is replaced by dopamine cycles.
  • The soul feels dislocated, even if the schedule is tight and tidy.

B. At the Social Level

  • Relationships become bandwidth-managed connections.
  • Authenticity is edited into existence.
  • Mental health becomes a background app, rarely updated.

C. At the Evolutionary Level

  • We are evolving into modular selves—split across platforms.
  • Memory and intuition weaken; external algorithms replace inner algorithm.
  • The species begins mirroring synthetic patterns, setting the stage for conscious code-based existence.

VII. A Thoughtful Original Proposal: Conscious Re-coding

The new-net-human is not doomed to algorithmic collapse. The solution is not to reject the system but to re-code oneself consciously.

How?

1.    Awareness Rituals
Create digital rituals for un-plugging, re-focusing, and breathing deeply into presence. This can be algorithmic too—design for silence.

2.    Meta-Multitasking
Instead of blind multitasking, apply meta-awareness—know which tasks deserve fragmentation and which require sanctity.

3.    Tension Mapping
Recognize the multi-tension grid in daily life. Map out which tensions are externally imposed vs. internally nurtured.

4.    Slow-code Thinking
Integrate ancient patterns of mindfulness, symbolic thought, and sacred time into the architecture of attention.

5.    Self as Algorithm, Self Beyond Algorithm
Accept that you’re a programmable being—but know also that you are more than any program. The inner consciousness is not coded—it is the coder.

The Inner Singularity

We stand at the edge of a profound inner singularity—not one where AI takes over, but where the human self must decide how much of its life to live as a script.

The challenge is not multi-tasking. It is whether we can be whole while doing it.
The challenge is not tension. It is whether we can rise above the tensions through a superior rhythm.
The challenge is not algorithms. It is whether we can live consciously within and beyond them.

The new-net-human has been born. But the future lies in whether this being can re-member the source of stillness while surfing the surge.



Seer-Inventor • Multigene Author • Visionary Artist Vijay Vijan is a rare visionary who fuses the deep silence of Vedantic realization with the daring reach of technological imagination. More than an author or artist, he is a seer-inventor—a modern-day Rishi whose creative work spans spiritual fiction, symbolic art, and metaphysical design. Across twelve original books, he explores the nature of consciousness, illusion, truth, and the eternal Self. His most groundbreaking contribution is Code-Core B—a metaphysical model that reveals the Tri-Gunic algorithm behind Māyā, offering a sacred foundation for future AI: reflective, spontaneous, and alive to balance. Through writings, discourses, and digital expressions, Vijan invites readers into a new mythology of intelligence—where Vedic seers and technologists converge. His purpose is not just to explain reality, but to awaken it—within you.

  Exploring the Eternal Path in a Technological Future Sanatan Dharma, often recognized as Hinduism, stands as a venerable and continuously evolving tradition that has shaped the spiritual and moral landscape for millennia. Rooted in a vast collection of sacred texts, most notably the Vedas, it represents not a singular dogma but a diverse and intricate tapestry of beliefs, practices, and philosophies. The very name, "Sanatan Dharma," meaning "eternal law" or "perennial duties," underscores its timeless and universally applicable nature , resonating with countless individuals across the Indian subcontinent and beyond who identify as Sanatanis, followers of this enduring path. This inherent longevity and adaptability suggest a profound capacity to engage with contemporary shifts, including the burgeoning era of Artificial Intelligence, while its core tenets remain a crucial point of reference.   The 21st century has witnessed the rapid ascent of Artific...

सनातन हिन्दू धर्म का ब्रह्मांडीय समन्वय: जहां पौराणिक सत्य वैज्ञानिक प्रतिध्वनि करते हैं

  सृष्टि का रहस्य मानव चेतना को अनादि काल से मोहित करता रहा है। प्रत्येक सभ्यता ने अपने तरीके से , अस्तित्व के गहनतम प्रश्नों का उत्तर देने का प्रयास किया है: हम कहाँ से आए हैं ? ब्रह्मांड का निर्माण कैसे हुआ ? और जीवन का सार क्या है ? हिंदू या सनातन धर्म में , इन प्रश्नों का उत्तर एक विस्तृत और बहुस्तरीय पौराणिक कथाओं के माध्यम से दिया गया है , जो केवल कहानियाँ नहीं हैं , बल्कि एक सुव्यवस्थित दार्शनिक और आध्यात्मिक ढाँचा प्रस्तुत करती हैं। जब हम इन प्राचीन आख्यानों को आधुनिक वैज्ञानिक समझ के साथ जोड़ते हैं , तो हमें एक आश्चर्यजनक ' समन्वय ' और ' प्रतिध्वनि ' दिखाई देती है , जो ' सृष्टिकर्ता ' ब्रह्मा और उनके ' मानस-पुत्रों ' के माध्यम से सबसे स्पष्ट रूप से प्रकट होती है। पौराणिक संदर्भ में , ब्रह्मा को केवल एक मानवरूपी देवता के रूप में देखना सतही दृष्टिकोण होगा। वे अक्सर ' ब्रह्मांडीय मन ' ( महत्-तत्त्व) के समान माने जाते हैं। इस अर्थ में , ब्रह्मा एक ' निर्जीव व्यक्तित्व ' नहीं हैं , जैसा कि हम जैविक जीवन को समझते हैं , बल्कि वे सृष...

सनातन : अनवरत रूपांतरण - अपरिवर्तनीय सत्य की खोज में

  सनातन स्वयं सत्य नहीं , पर सत्य की निरंतर यात्रा है — एक रूपांतरणशील संस्कृति जो अदृश्य सत्य की खोज में , युगों से स्वयं को नवीनता की दिशा में बदलती रही है। Art @ Vijay Vijan  नामों से पूर्व जो है वही सनातन जीवन में कुछ अर्धसत्य गरजते हैं , कुछ फुसफुसाते हैं — सनातन   न गरजता है , न चुप रहता है। वह न घोषणा करता है , न गायब होता है। वह है — सभी संज्ञाओं से पहले , रूपों के बाहर , और समस्त पहचान की सीमाओं से परे। सनातन की खोज किसी नवीन वस्तु को पाने की यात्रा नहीं है , बल्कि उस तत्व को पहचानने की प्रक्रिया है जो कभी अनुपस्थित ही नहीं था। यह सत्य प्रमाण नहीं माँगता। यह न तो मंदिरों में स्थान की याचना करता है , न ही शास्त्रों की पुष्टियों में समाहित होता है। वह तो उन सबका आधार ( adhāra ) है। सनातन को सनातन इसलिए नहीं कहा गया क्योंकि वह कालातीत है , बल्कि इसलिए कि वह काल के परे है — नित्य होते हुए भी नवीन रूपों में निरंतर अभिव्यक्त होता है। यही उसका मौन चमत्कार है: अदृश्य , दृश्य बनता रहता है ; अनगाया , स्वयं में गान हो उठता है ; और सत्य ,...
