McLuhan probed the impact of technology on our culture. His work is even more important as more and more new technologies are introduced.
Now, suppose that we put questions to that mass through electronic media concerning the problems of our time.... There is always one man in a million for whom any problem is not a problem at all. For a long time mathematicians used to pose as unanswerable the problem, "How far can you go into a forest?" One day some child simply child simply said, "Halfway." And that is the answer; after that, you are coming out.Marshall McLuhan Understand Me, (1979) p. 292

The interesting stuff is in the boundaries. More species live on the
edge of the forest than in the forest or in the meadow. That is where I
like to...
