[Institutional leverage silences the movement.]
[Passiveness will construct information, not knowledge.]
[Learning without exchanging with others can produce encyclopedic awareness that fails to be critical or read what isn't written.]
[TV favours the presentation of processes rather than of products.]
[Successful TV performers blend a low-pressure presentation style with an act that requires hogh-pressure organizing.]
[TV is cool because it is participatory, whereas radio is hot because it is more involving.]
[With TV, the viewer is the screen: millions of dots of light go through them and a small subset are accepted in order to create the images.]
[The movie image has more data and is accepted by the viewer as a package; the dots don't need to be reconfigured to construct another pattern. Adding more data to the TV image would make it something else, in the same way that a cartoon with details of perspective and light would no longer be a cartoon.]
[Tribal bonds in England and America had been eroded by literacy to the extent that radio did not resuscitate them, as it did in Germany.]
