Marshall McLuhan: The medium is the massage
- medium ~ process ⇒ restructuring patters of social interdependence
- societies are shaped by the media and not by its content
- alphabet as a technology
- The age of anxiety: trying to do today's job with yesterday's tools, yesterday's concepts
The older, traditional ideas of private, isolated thoughts and actions - the patterns of mechanistic technologies- are very seriously threatened by new methods of instantaneous electric information retrieval (...) - p. 12
- dialogue on a global scale ⇒ global village
- mass audience (creative, participating force) as the successor of the public
In an electric information environment, minority groups can no longer be contained - ignored. Too many people know too much about each other. Our new environment compels commitment and participation. We have become irrevocably involved with, and responsible for, each other.
