..but adults too live with all systems go, interrupted and distracted, scanning everything, multi-technological-tasking everywhere.

...but adults too live with all systems go, interrupted and distracted, scanning everything, multi-technological-tasking everywhere. (Link : https://mleddy.blogspot.com/2005/08/attention.html)


I have three questions about this sentence.


1. Is "multi-technological-tasking" used as a verb ?

I mean this seems to be used to express the behavior of adults as in "adults too live with all systems go, multi-technological-tasking everywhere".


2. Is "and" omitted in the sentence, as in "...everything, (and) multi-technological-tasking everywhere" ?


3. Is it okay to omit "and" if I want to omit "and" ?
