Hyperlocal signals

Just documenting a very provisional thought.
I’ve been wondering a lot lately about any connection (or overlap) between Linda Stone’s idea of a cultural swing back to the individual as centre of gravity, Mark Pesce’s ‘Hyper <everything> People” and Stowe Boyd’s recent beginning of /Ground.
Something like “Hyperlocalism” perhaps that goes deeper, is individual, and beyond, just news?
Just thoughts.
