The role technology plays in Cayce's life

Cayce Pollard lives in a limbo, not really belonging to the world still being part of it and having the ability to unveil forming patterns. She only has one true interest in her life, the footage and “anything other than the footage is Off Topic. The world, really. News. Off Topic.” (p. 48) Technology enables her to access her “second home” (p.67), the internet forum Fetish:Footage:Forum, that feels “like a friend’s living room.” (p. 67) Technology offers her refuge, protection from reality and everything else that is “Off Topic.”
