Editing Hypermodernity (section)

==Hypermodernity==
Hypermodernity emphasizes a hyperbolic separation between past and present because:
* The past oriented attributes and their functions around objects. 
* Objects that do exist in the present are only extant due to some useful attribute in the hypermodern era.

Hypermodernity inverts [[modernity]] to allow the attributes of an object to provide even more individuality than modernism. Modernity trapped form within the bounds of limited function; hypermodernity posits that function is now evolving so rapidly, it must take its reference point from form itself.  Both positive and negative societal changes occur due to [[hyper-individualism]] and increased personal choice.

[[Postmodernity]] rejected the idea of the past as a reference point and curated objects from the past for the sole purpose of freeing form from function.  In postmodernism, truth was ephemeral as the focus was to avoid non-falsifiable tenets. Postmodernity described a total collapse of modernity and its faith in progress and improvement in empowering the individual.
