Re: [Yasmin_discussions] McLUHAN EFFECTS

To cope with such extreme changes in perception (art in cyberspace), special
qualities are needed, traditionally owned by the artists. In McLuhan's
words:
'The serious artist is the only person able to encounter technology with
impunity, just because he is an expert aware of the changes in sense
perception'.
(McLuhan, M 1964, Understanding media :the extensions of man, Signet
books, New York, P.33).
