]]> 465 no 3. Marshall McLuhan Called 2020 Years Ago https://cjcas.com/ This week we're looking at two modern poets & prophets, Marshall McLuhan and Wendell Berry. Both their messages paint a remarkable picture of what life can look like once we take control over technology (rather than letting it take control of us)…and serve as a warning that we ignore at our own peril. Their ideas will serve as a foundation for the next several episodes focused on a new way to look at social media in an age where our privacy, data, and self-worth are at stake.  Excerpts: Marshall McLuhan: The Medium is the Message (ABC Radio National Network) 1977: https://youtu.be/UoCrx0scCkM The Peace of Wild Things read by Wendell Berry.

It’s not virtue signaling. It’s not going around canceling everything. It’s a proactive measure vs. a reactive response. Often the best way to solve a current problem is to realize it really isn’t current at all. It turns out poets have been combatting uncertainty, chaos, and selfie culture since before "selfie" was even a word.
