“Societies have always been shaped more by the nature of the media with which people communicate than by the content of the communication.“ - Marshall McLuhan
Marshall McLuhan, one of Canada’s most influential and controversial figures, burst into the centre of media circles in North America with his strange and prophetic pronouncements - “electric light is pure information“ - on advertising, television and the emerging computer age.
Known for his imaginative descriptions of the media environment, McLuhan coined the phrases ’the medium is the message’ and ’the global village.’ These two aphorisms still linger on the tongues of critics, philosophers and pop-culture makers as McLuhan’s predictions and revelations continue to be proven true over and over again.
