"From the end of the 1920s onwards, the idea of accepting the absence of words or phrases, of some kind of dialogue, became unthinkable. The so-called listening comfort of darkened cinema halls required that HEARING and VISION be synchronized. Much later, at the end of the century, ACTION and REACTION similarlywould be put into instant interaction thanks to the geats of 'tele-action', this time, and not just radop[hpmoc 'tele-listening' or 'tele-vision.'" pg. 73

Interaction is defined, again, in a different way here by Virilio. It is spoken of as a synchronization - whice implies that it would one day be embedded as something to be taken for granted by the audience.
