the bias of communication


time bias

Harold Innis

"Media that emphasize TIME are those that


are durable in character, such as
parchment, c ay, or stone.''

space bias
"Media that emphasize SPACE are apt to be
less durable and light in character, such
as papyrus and paper.''

oral culture
based in speech
interaction is face to face or

generati on to generati on
flleaning in language is local and
specific
fllefllory is crucial

poetry plays a central role


fllyth and history are intertwined

written culture
met with distrust
"Ifmen learn [writing], it will implant
forgetfulness in their souls; they will
cease to exercise memory because they
rely on that which is written, calling
things to remembrance no longer from
within themselves, but by means of
external lllarks '
Socrates in Plato's
Phaedrus

"[We] border on a spiritual harvest


because thought now travels by steam
and magnetic wires"

Rev.Gardner Spring

The human brain is a curious object and operates in ways that we can't fully comprehend. That
said, you can't possibly write down every single word that you see on these slides when they
appear and listen carefully at the same time. Besides, not everything that say will end up on one
of these slides. Don't be fooled by the glitz and glamour of so-called "new technology." This is
basically just a fancy chalk-board. There were lecture classes at Pitt well before the computer
and many classes continue
to use chalk-boards and even over-head projectors-which must have been viewed as a brilliant
new technology at some earlier period. Ancient peoples' no doubt gave lectures using
hieroglyphics and stone carvings. Medieval scholars once copied books by hand and seemed to
learn things in the process. Socrates didn't need any tools of writing at all; for him, writing was
apharmakon, a kind of drug that had a seductive affect on people, not to mention making it so
people didn't have to memorize things in order to bring them to mind. Ifwriting was the new
technology of Socrates' age, today our world seems overtaken by screens-computers, cell phones,
high definition television sets,
GPS units-and the more these dominate our lives the more it seems like the screen is the best
source of knowledge and information. Why bother learning your way around Pittsburgh when
you can simply plug an address into your GPS unit and follow the screen? While these screens
have their uses, we should also think critically about them and what they mean for our culture.
How are our lives different than those of people in Socrates' time, and
how much of that has to do with our different technologies?
How much
of your life has been spent looking at a tiny screen in your hand, not to mention larger screens
like this one? How is a class that uses powerpoint different from one that uses a chalkboard?
How do students learn or think differently when they look at a
powerpoint slide than when they see other sorts of things? Do they? If a powerpoint slide clicks

and no one is there to hear or see it does it matter ? In any case,


promise not
to overdue it with the special effects and not to let the slides take the place of good preparation
or talking in an organized, interesting way, if you promise to pay attention to me and not just
this big flashy screen.

trial
"It is natural, it is a privilege, I will go farther, it is a right, which
all free men claim, that they are entitled to complain when they are
hurt. They have a right publicly to remonstrate against the abuses
of power in the strongest terms, to put their neighbors upon their
guard against the craft or open violence of men in authority, and to
assert with courage the sense they have of the blessings of liberty,
the value they put upon it, and their resolution at all hazards to
preserve it as one of the greatest blessings heaven can bestow:'

"The question before the Court and you, Gentlemen of the jury,
is not of small or private concern. It is not the cause of one poor
printer, nor of New York alone, which you are now trying.No!
...It is the best cause. It is the cause of liberty.And I make no
doubt but
your upright conduct this day will not only entitle you to the love
and esteem of your fellow citizens, but every man who prefers
freedom to a life of slavery will bless and honor you as men who
have baffled the attempt of tyranny, and by an impartial and
uncorrupt verdict have laid a noble foundation for securing to
ourselves, our

posterity, and our neighbors, that to which nature and the laws of
our country have given us a right to liberty of both exposing and
opposing arbitrary power ...by speaking and writing truth:'

language; but is there not cause for severity? will be as
harsh as truth,and as uncompromising asjustice. On this
subject,
do not wish to think, or to
speak, or write,with moderation. No!no!Tell a man
whose house is on 6re to give a moderate alarm; tell
him to moderately rescue his wife from the hands of the
ravisher; tell the mother to gradually extricate her babe
from the fire into which it has fallen; --but urge me not to
use moderation in a

cause like the present. am in earnest -- will not equivocate

"The Mind that lies fallow but a single Day,
sprouts up in Follies that are only to be killed by a
constant and assiduous Culture.It was said of
Socrates, that he brought Philosophy down from
Heaven, to inhabit among Men; andIshall be
ambitious to have it said of me, that have
brought Philosophy out of Closets and Libraries,
Schools and Colleges, to dwell in Clubs and
Assentblies, at Tea-tables, and in Coffee-houses:'

FEELINGBAD?

Don't
Swallow
It-Wallow in It
You can't
y cheer
up until you face
your
blues.
Here'show.
o one likes to drown
in t pasting a happy
face isn't the
answer. "It's a to just
try to cheer down,"
notes Alan
Downs, Ph.D., author of Why Does
This Keep Happening to Me? (Fire
side). "But facing unpleasant emo
tions 1s the only way to start fixing
what's bothering you." When Alan
Ball-Oscar-winningscreenwriter of American Beauty and creator
of HBO's Six Feet Under-was 13, his older sister was killed in
a car accident whi e driving him to a music lesson. For 25
years, he tried to ignore his sorrow, but it caught up with him.
"Grief is a primal thing, and the only way out of it is through
it," he has said. "Having come out on the other side...really
made me a stronger and richer person." No matter how great or
small }<)Ur pain, healthy wallowingis a crucial part of handling it.
Here,Downs' tips for feeling what's real:

Dig into your dumps. Oon't just dwell on negative feel ngs
if you don't know why you have them. Instead, Downssays toask
your self, What's changed for me recently? Oon't leave
anythingout-the culprit could even be a physical factor like lack
of sleep or exercise.

Ment.alhealthunbulletin

Thediseases feel real, but no HMO will cover them.

ApologitisA needless-blame-takingdisorder signaled by


owruse of the phrase "I'mso sorry." Acute cases have been
known to apolog12eto people who bump into them.The cure:
Try "Oops."

lndecisionism Whenit's 4:30 but there

are stillseven
restaurants under consideration for tonight's dinner,
indecisionism is to blame. The wish to abandon responsibility
isa risk factor. A radicaltreatmentinvolving flipping a coin
isin final testing.

Man-orexia This insatiable hunger for anythingmale

causes the sufferer to put her life on holdwhenever a set of


"t:f

chromosomes crosses her path. One remedyis an all-girl retreat,


but more serious cases may need a few hoursin front of WWF
Smackdo.vn to remember just how unappealing men can be.

Screw-you-enza

More common duringwarm


weather, thisailment prompts sufferers to cancel prearranged
plans "just because."It was once thought to becontagious, but
clingy relatives
and oversocial peers are more likely the cause. Treatment
includes, but is notlimited to, high doses of guilt.
--ALEXANDRA
MARSHALL

118

Because there'sa fine linebetween Oy! and joy.

Hassled
HAVING A
T0-00 LIST

Watch your timing.It's not smart to wallow in the middle of a


meeting, but you can devote your lunch hour to a box of Puffs
Plus. If the cause of your grief is profound, take a mental health
day--0r even a vacation-andgive yourself the OK to do 100
percent nothing.

Don't stew si ently. The point istoidentify what's botheringyou


and get it out. So instead of just letting your feelings circle
around inside your head, write them down or contact a palwho
really lstens.

Slowly

smileagain. limeto

rejoin theliving? Visit a spot


you'resure will make you feel good. "A change of scenery gets your
mind moYing forward," says Downs. But if more than a week
passes and you feel thingswon't get better, it may be timeto seek
counseling.--LESLIE YAZEL

children began to cry, the family decided to go out.
We took blankets and my granddaughter wanted to
take the cat and the canary. We were outside the

it was a play:'
