input and output of information
I had to think again about the way people get their information and what they do with it. Today I went to the Town Library with my kids and I saw not more than three or four people around the bookshelves. Six kids were sitting in the front of the four computers and about 12 kids and adults were looking for audio CDs and videos. I asked myself: are we at the end of the Gutenberg era and this is how a paradigm shift looks like? It would be interesting to find out more about the way people are able and willing to absorb information: visually from TV and video tapes or auditively from audio tapes, mp3 players and CDs; or in the old fashioned manner from books and magazines from the bookshelves or from the internet. (I do not ask any questions about the content of the information they absorb and how they process them. The results are shown on TV news reels, they are visible and audible in cafés and restaurants, offices and family homes. You don’t have to get into a theater of war operations to see what people do with all the available information from the last 2.500 years.)
