Ephemeralisation:
"“Ephemeralization is the doing of ever more with ever less, per given resource units of pounds, time and energy.”
"Ephemeralization is accelerated by ever increasing quantities of invisible energy events of universe, detoured by human intellect from their previously only cosmically flowing patterns to flow through engineered channels and impinge upon intellect-invented levers and thereby to vastly augment the work accomplishable by mankind’s muscles in rearranging the energetic environment events to more effectively sustain the metabolic regeneration of human life.
"Ephemeralization, which constantly does more with visibly less-- as does, for instance, the one-quarter-ton communications satellite outperform 150,000 tons of transoceanic cables-- has not yet been formally isolated, recognized and discussed in print as such by any economists.
