the moment were living for is the largest increase in expressive capability
only 4 periods in the last 500 years media as changed enough
1. printers
2. telegraph, telephone
3. photos, recorded sound, movies
4. electromagnetic signal- tv and radio
media that is good at creating conversation is no good at creating groups
media that is good at creating groups is no good at creating conversation.
internet gives group and individual conversation
Internet becomes the carriage for all other media phone calls, text, tv, social media all carried by the internet, every media is next door to every other media.
audience can now be producers instead of just consumers
news stories are found from twitter before any official reports- news is reported live on twitter.
gives power to citizens
china is probably the best social manager in the world
people can interact with higher powers and create conversation with each other.
ametures are more than professionals
most media that is produced now is produced by ammetures
