Immediacy’s prose makes flow the only discernible structural unit

Evidence

The overflowing of genres and media lulls Weather into an immediacy of floating minima and oceanic feeling. It is writing whose immersive quality generally belies forms like chapter or short story or novel, becoming instead subnovella somehow pooling toward epic, with flow as the only discernible structure. Increasingly fused in an amorphous bustle, this writing constitutes a superfluent discourse whose main unit is not the newspaper or the novel so much as the run-on sentence, accruing in an unstaunchable mass. — Anna Kornbluh, Immediacy, or The Style of Too Late…, 169

Categorization

• DEFINE: Defines immediacy-prose as ‘superfluent discourse’ whose unit is the run-on sentence, not the novel or chapter — a key formal handle.
• XREF: ‘Flow as the only discernible structure’ recalls Ong’s and Innis’s orality theory on writing’s erosion into stream — a media-ecology echo worth tracking.
