Writing — due on Tuesday!:
1. Bibliography is due!
2. Expand the following McLuhan quote with at least one additional pairing, and then either expand or comment upon the last two sentences in a 21st-century-perspective-expanding way (however you interpret that!):
“The telephone: speech without walls.
The phonograph: music hall without walls.
The photograph: museum without walls.
The electric light: space without walls.
The movie, radio, and TV: classroom without walls.
Man the food-gatherer reappears incongruously as information-gatherer. In this role, electronic man is no less a nomad than his paleolithic ancestors.”
