Key technologies in the rise of the age of superabundance
This article addresses the nature of superabundance. It begins by reviewing how humanity is unique in its ability to bind-time and generate wealth. Drawing upon Alfred Korzybski, the article differentiates two kinds of wealth, potential use-values and kinetic use-values. It reveals the increasing acceleration of the uniquely human phenomenon of wealth by briefly exploring five different revolutions in history (e.g. cognitive, agricultural, indust…

The relevance of R. D. Laing to the AI movement and to media ecology more generally: Projection and the feeling of being understood
This article is a celebration of Laing, Phillipson and Lee’s Interpersonal Perception and a staunch critique of Levy’s Love and Sex with Robots . It explores how relationships with others mediate self-understanding and interpersonal interaction. Furthermore, by appropriating relevant insights from Laing and his colleagues and re-contextualizing them within a larger media ecological framework, the article seeks to reveal the deep challenges and co…
Technology, hypocrisy and morality: Where, oh where, has all the hypocrisy gone
This essay examines the phenomenon of hypocrisy from a media ecological vantage. It walks through examples and cases of hypocrisy witnessed in the United States today, and then argues that dominant media forms have shaped and are continuing to shape our senses of self, community, constancy and consistency. Accounting for the apparent rise in hypocrisy – its near ubiquity in modern US culture – as well as clarifying why today’s accusations of hypo…

This entry offers a broad sketch of phenomenology and shows its relevance to communication theory and research by outlining its basic methodological orientations, by reviewing some of its key concepts and main themes, and finally, by considering a few exemplars from the field of communicat…
Heating up’ and ‘cooling down’: Re-appraising McLuhan’s hot–cool distinction
Diachronic phenomenology: A methodological thread within media ecology
This article identifies and outlines a method of thought and line of research that can be found throughout media ecology. The methodology and research line, ‘diachronic phenomenology’, explores the many ways that conscious life and social organization (in its essential dimensions, modalities, properties and functioning) resonates with particular environments and media forms, and correspondingly grows, develops and becomes itself. The article thus…
Georg Simmel as unrecognized media ecologist
This article considers Georg Simmel’s contributions to media ecology. By examining various dialectics of subjectivity and cultural form (especially how valuation relates to money) and also by delineating how humanity takes its structure from resistances and boundaries which in their turn need to be transcended, Simmel’s work outlines both the basic dynamics of cultural process and the tragedy of culture itself: people can grow themselves only by …

Early Western Writing, Sensory Modalities, and Modern Alphabetic Literacy: On the Origins of Representational Theorizing
This article interrogates the so-called “crisis in representation” as a symptom of forgotten alphabetic literacy. My analysis launches its critique by attending to John Stewart’s recent writings on “the symbol model” and advances through two main sections. The first reviews historical developments in alphabetic technologies, identifying both basic differences and early impacts. The second section addresses phenomenological differences between hea…
The Practice of Reading Good Books: A Plea to Teachers and Students
This article is designed to provoke lively discussion between and among teachers and students regarding the growing state of reading atrophy. It best serves as an “inspirational” beginning piece for undergraduate humanities or social science courses that contain difficult, “primary source,” readings. The article consists of two main parts. The first addresses contemporary sources of reading atrophy. The second part offers arguments for why the pr…

About talk’: The category of talk-reflexive words
The present exploration examines the everyday capability to talk about talk by considering mainly the use of a particular word-type, what I shall be calling 'about talk' words. As an important note, the reader of this text should observe that almost all the sentences within this paper (except for quotations) embody 'about talk'. But, rather than continue to distract the reader by underlining every instance, I shall highlight (i.e., underline) onl…
