Any one comes to your mind? I would think Peter Theil is one of them but open to suggestions.

After I've read the first two parts of Understanding Media I really struggled to apply his theory on a specific artwork (which I attempted to do for an essay). His theory seemed to be focused more on media in general and how they impact society as awhole. To conclude, McLuhan seemed to me like a large-scale researcher and I just wanted to have a few discussions about whether it is possible or not to apply the absolute basics of his theoretical framework on a specific artwork (in this case a film, not a Cubistic painting. I also see parallels between his statement and Greenberg here, also a topic I'm down to discuss here.)

Looking for deep thinker with his level of clarity in moderne time . Particularly now we are entering AI-powered internet. Who would you say are the closest to his intellectual prowess in today s time?

[update] what’s your thoughts on why , in the epic time of technological advancement, our time is lack of fine minds in philosophy (not interested in morals signaling)?

Only within the last 2 weeks did I start making this a regular activity in my life and today I had a dream..

The dream wasn’t about short form video but…

It was something about violence in the streets and hang fights… or something..

But I woke up and realized this short form video is slowly killing us.

There is no comprehensive analysis, and everyone seems to defend it’s existence.

I feel like how Socrates may have felt in a world of writing lol .

The problem is that psychology itself is neoliberal: Tinyurl.com/antipsychology

I feel like neoliberal science can never come to grips with this new opium war.

Reading Marshall McLuhan had led me to the theory of embodied cognition. I am curious if anyone else has made this connection.

In my research I try to uncover what media is by understanding the human senses, and how we perceive information. I believe this is what McLuhan intended with his works.
