“Our communication network must be used as a tool of environmental education." – Phil Gietzen, Radical Software, Issue 1, 1970
Steve will give overview: what is "media ecology"?
We will resume our discussion about “open ended media systems” (Radical Software, Antfarm, John Cage and Fluxus being historical examples). We will discuss how the 1960s counterculture turned into today's cyberculture, we will consider the lessons learned and the warnings given.
