In other words, maybe the absence of major events on the timewave graph is evidence that we the public have absolutely no idea of what's really going on in our own time.

I was just listening to terence today and thinking that if he had lived to see this decade, he would have considered it incredibly uneventful compared to what he expected. in the talk i was listening to called "Light of the 3rd Millenium" he figured that by 2004 or 5 eveyone would be hooked into some sort of artificial hyperspace grid through nanotechnology.
but then i thought something really similar to what you're saying, maybe all this novelty is going on behind the scenes. i wish terence was here to talk about all this and i wounder what he would say about this last decade. we really don't seem to be anywhere TOO far ahead of where we were ten years ago but maybe we are and i have missed it or it's happening in some way that we can't pick up on or see.
according to terence, humans took on the flow of novely in our advancement and creation of language and tools and culture and so on, so maybe something else has taken on the flow now, other than our flow of culture, maybe novely is being expressed through technology or art. or yea, the other option is that it is happening behind the scenes like you said which would also explain it.
