First of all, I don't think anyone could claim to be media literate if he or
|
|
she didn't understand that one of the principle functions of commercial media
|
|
is not so much the provision of information or entertainment, but the
|
|
segmentation and packaging of audiences for delivery and sale to advertisers...
|
|
It's the audience which is the real product of the media, and not the programs.

JUST IN CASE YOU HADN'T HEARD -- THE '60S ARE OVER
|
|
|
|
It finally happened -- Bob Dylan has allowed The Times They Are
|
|
A-Changin' to be used in an advertisement on television. The ad
|
|
went on the air this month, but it is not the first -- only the
|
|
most amazing -- example of the commercial use of a rebellious
|
|
classic.
|
|
|
|
-- Song: The Times They Are A-Changin', Bob Dylan
|
|
-- Product: Coopers & Lybrand, accountants
|
|
|
|
For an undisclosed sum, Dylan permitted the Big Six firm to use
|
|
folkie Richie Havens' rendition of his protest anthem. The company
|
|
cannot use Dylan's name, even when discussing the spot.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) -- The times, they have a-changed.
|
|
Timothy Leary, the '60s LSD guru, was detained Tuesday at the
|
|
Austin airport for smoking -- a cigarette.
|
|
Leary, 73, said he wanted to draw attention to people being
|
|
``demonized'' by the politically correct.
|
|
``We were told by an official that smoke in the airport would
|
|
get us a citation. So we did look for a policeman to check this
|
|
out,'' he said.
|
|
Leary was detained at the airport for about an hour. The offense
|
|
carries a maximum $500 fine. A court hearing was scheduled for May 18.

The real danger from advertising is that it helps to shatter and ultimately

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. (AP) -- Gumby was taken from Scott and Suzanne Dye's
|
|
front porch on Memorial Day, and the theft caught the media's
|
|
fancy for about a week, especially after a ransom note was
|
|
delivered to a radio station.
|
|
A group calling itself the ``JEHU Revolutionary Front'' sent a
|
|
ransom demand, along with a snapshot of Gumby bound and
|
|
blindfolded, demanding that Gov. George Allen donate $5 to a
|
|
Richmond homeless shelter. The governor declined to meet the ransom
|
|
demand.
|
|
Scott Dye said that the 7-foot stuffed toy was returned
|
|
Wednesday night. ``Now, we're having a party,'' he said.
|
|
Crystal Manuel, 16, said she saw Gumby sitting outside a tent at
|
|
a campground over the Memorial Day weekend and asked the boys in
|
|
the tent if she could have it. ``I love Gumby,'' she said.
|
|
But when she saw a television report Wednesday evening of
|
|
Gumby's abduction, she knew she had to return the stuffed toy.
|
|
``I wanted Gumby to come home, but I never thought it would
|
|
happen,'' Mrs. Dye said as Gumby was put back on the front porch.
|
|
Allen spokeswoman Melissa Herring said that although the ransom
|
|
demand may have been made in jest, the governor refused to pay
|
|
``for several reasons, the first being that a crime was committed
|
|
when the Gumby doll was stolen, and if he paid the $5 it could
|
|
cause a copycat incident to occur. And we certainly don't want that
|
|
to happen.''
|
|
Officials at the homeless shelter said they knew nothing about
|
|
the ransom note.

EUREKA, Ill. - In a grade school classroom a decade ago, 11-year-old
|
|
Martha Tennis carved a bust of Ronald Reagan in a bar of Ivory soap
|
|
and sent it to the president.
|
|
|
|
Now 21, married and working in a nursing home, Martha Schumacher
|
|
is amazed the her carving is enshrined with presidential jelly
|
|
beans, yo-yos and a mini-samurai helmet in a new Reagan museum
|
|
at his alma mater, Eureka College.
|
|
|
|
"Oh gross," she said, when told her sculpture was on display
|
|
along with here 1984 fourth grade picture and a note apologizing
|
|
that she didn't have enough soap to carve Nancy Reagan.

That's something that [English philosopher] David Hume pointed out a couple
|
|
of centuries ago. In his work on political theory, he describes the paradox
|
|
that, in any society, the population submits to the rulers, even though
|
|
force is always in the hands of the governed.
|
|
|
|
Ultimately the governors, the rulers, can only rule if they control opinion
|
|
- no matter how many guns they have. This is true of the most despotic
|
|
societies and the most free, he wrote. If the general population won't
|
|
accept things, the rulers are finished.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) -- ``Star Trek'' creator Gene
|
|
Roddenberry got his final wish -- his ashes flew on a space shuttle
|
|
sometime after his death in 1991.
|
|
NASA confirmed Thursday what his widow, Majel Barrett
|
|
Roddenberry, divulged at a local Space Congress banquet Tuesday
|
|
night -- that Roddenberry's ashes flew on a shuttle and were
|
|
returned several days later to Earth aboard the spaceship.
|
|
``It is true,'' NASA spokesman Brian Welch said Thursday
|
|
morning. ``It was approved as a personal effect'' of an astronaut,
|
|
he said.
|
|
Mrs. Roddenberry, an actress who appeared in the original and
|
|
subsequent ``Star Trek'' series, said her husband ``would have
|
|
given anything to have been able, just once, to go into that great
|
|
galaxy he dreamed about, where so few men have gone before.''
|
|
Roddenberry died of a heart attack in October 1991 at age 70.

After 2 1/2 years of looking, the Visible Human Project at the National
|
|
Library of Medicine (NLM) in Bethesda, Md., settled recently on the
|
|
cadavers of a 38-year-old man and a 59-year-old woman to represent the
|
|
online human body. Using digitized photography, computerized tomography,
|
|
and magnetic resonance imaging in 1 mm sections of the cadavers, the
|
|
project will build a 42-gigabyte, three-dimensional image database of
|
|
the two for distribution over the Internet. Project planners hope to
|
|
combine the imaging data with other types of information -- journal
|
|
articles, for example -- using interlinked information structures.
|
|
According to project officer Michael J. Ackerman at NLM, investigators

The _Toronto Globe and Mail_ reported in October on the religious

importance of Pepsi-Cola in the town of San Juan Chamula, in southern

Mexico. Practicing a blend of Christianity and worship of Mayan gods,

many parishioners believe their leaders' doctrine that because Pepsi
|

has more bubbles than Coca-Cola, it is closer to the sun and therefore
|
|
more powerful. Bottles of Pepsi appear among holy artifacts inside local
|

churches, and some leaders believe the cola has healing powers. (Coca-

Cola officials say the dominance is due purely to Pepsi's payment of

kickbacks to the leaders.)

Workers at The Science Place in Fair Park were perplexed by several

inquiries in the days before Tuesday's solar eclipse. Some callers
|

found the timing inconvenient and wanted to know why the museum hadn't

scheduled the event for a weekend so more people could attend. Others

wondered if there was a rain date for eclipse-watching activities.

Famed scientist Carl Sagan apparently didn't cotton to Apple Computer Inc.'s
|
|
having borrowed his name for a new computer.
|
|
|
|
After receiving a complaint from Sagan, Apple changed the internal code name of
|
|
an upcoming model from "Carl Sagan" to "Butt-Head Astronomer," the San Francisco
|
|
Chronical reports.
|
|
|
|
The scientist asked the company to stop using his name after an article about
|
|
the new model appeared in MacWeek magazine, the newspaper said.
|
|
|
|
The Butt-Head Astronomer - referred to as BHA for short- is one of three Apple

models that will use the PowerPC microprocessor, which was developed by an

|
alliance of Apple, Motorola Inc, and IBM Corp.

Fired Worker Spices Up Woody Woodpecker Film

CHARLESTON, W.Va. - A disgruntled employee added part of an
|
|
R-rated movie about a prostitute to the end of at least 500
|
|
copies of a Woody Woodpecker video, forcing 20,000 copies
|
|
to be recalled.
|

|

UAV Corp. of Fort Mill, S.C., took back copies of the 30-minute
|
|
tape, "Woody Woodpecker and Friends No. 3015," last month after
|
|
complaints, company President Jerry Pettus said Friday.
|
|
|
|
The fired video production worker added a two-minute scene
|
|
from the 1991 movie "Whore," staring Theresa Russell as a
|
|
woman who turns to prostitution after a bad marriage.

During the last period of our friendship [Damian] had said that we

had been given a god to worship who represented only one arbitrarily

separated half of the world (it was the official, sanctioned, luminous

world), but that we ought to be able to worship the whole world; this

meant that we would either have to have a god who was also a devil or

Today [1988] fifty corporations own most of the output of daily newspapers
|
|
and most of the sales and audience in magazines, broadcasting, books, and
|
|
movies. The fifty men and women who head these corporations would fit in
|

a large room. They constitute a new Private Ministry of Information and culture.
|

|
Americans, like most people, get images of the world from their newspapers,
|
|
magazines, radio, television, books, and movies. The mass media become the
|
|
authority at any given moment for what is true and what is false, what is
|
|
reality and what is fantasy, what is important and what is trivial. There
|
|
is no greater force in shaping the public mind; even brute force triumphs
|
|
only by creating an accepting attitude toward the brutes.

Despite the fact that more accidents happen in the home than elsewhere,
|
|
increasing efficiency of communication and of controlling human
|
|
behavior can, instead of liberating us into the air like birds, fix us
|
|
to the ground like toadstools. All information will come in by
|
|
super-realistic television and other electronic devices as yet in
|
|
the planning stage or barely imagined. In one way this will enable the
|
|
individual to extend himself anywhere without moving his body - even
|
|
to distant regions of space. But this will be a new kind of individual -an
|
|
individual with a colossal external nervous system reaching out and
|
|
out into infinity. And this electronic nervous system will be so
|
|
interconnected that all individuals plugged in will tend to share the
|
|
same thoughts, the same feelings, and the same experiences. There may
|
|
be specialized types, just as there are specialized cells and organs
|
|
in our bodies. For the tendency will be for all individuals to coalesce
|
|
into a single bioelectronic body.

In regard to propaganda the early advocates of universal literacy and a free
|
|
press envisaged only two possibilities: the propaganda might be true, or it
|
|
might be false. They did not foresee what in fact has happened, above all in
|
|
our Western capitalist democracies -- the development of a vast mass
|
|
communications industry, concerned in the main neither with the true nor
|
|
the false, but with the unreal, the more or less totally irrelevant. In
|
|
a word, they failed to take into account man's almost infinite appetite
|
|
for distractions.
|
|
|
|
In their propaganda today's dictators rely for the most part on repetition,
|
|
suppression and rationalization -- the repetition of catchwords which they wish
|
|
to be accepted as true, the suppression of facts which they wish to be ignored,
|
|
the arousal and rationalization of passions which may be used in the interests
|
|
of the Party or the State. As the art and science of manipulation come to be
|
|
better understood, the dictators of the future will doubtless learn to combine
|
|
these techniques with the non-stop distractions which, in the West, are now
|
|
threatening to drown in a sea of irrelevance the rational propaganda essential
|
|
to the maintenance of individual liberty and the survival of democratic
|
|
institutions.

I do not without a certain inner resistance and resentment accept a system of
|
|
marketing in which all the decisions have been taken out of both the shopkeeper
|
|
and the customer and put under the remote control of the market researcher and
|
|
the packaging expert, the advertising agency and the wholesale distributor.
|
|
Those who have grown up in this packaged world accept such external controls
|
|
and compulsions as normal. Their loss of choice, their loss of taste; they do
|
|
not even notice for they have never known anything different.

CYBERFLOP HORROR
|
|
|
|
Bologna, Italy
|
|
|
|
A record 35,000 people were attracted to this year's Bologna Erotica Festival.
|
|
Excitement was at a fever pitch following news that it would be the pioneering
|
|
showcase for the eroticism of the future -- cybersex. This is simulated sex,
|
|
using computer screens and electronic probes. Unfortunately, on the night, the
|
|
cybersex suits kept blowing up. One of the lady demonstrators, Milly, told the
|
|
audience not only that she felt nothing pleasant, but also that she feared the
|
|
machine could harm her. To stop the resulting exodus of the audience from the
|
|
room, Milly, in despair, tore off her cybersuit and adopted a good old-
|
|
fashioned tactic: she bared her breasts.
|
|
|
|
The Norwegian inventor of the electronic sex machine, Stahl Stenslie, said the
|
|
technology was still at an experimental stage -- and Milly had "moved around
|
|
too much." He claimed that his device would enable any two people in the world
|
|
to make love from a distance, provided they each had a Macintosh computer,
|
|
a modem and access to a telephone line. The cybersex machine was not a porn
|
|
accessory, but was intended to alleviate "profound social problems": for
|
|
instance, "to aid the disabled and those in prison."

what looks like 3 X's. In that focus mode, look at the text. You
