I don't have his book handy (Understanding Media by Marshall McLuhan), but here's a paraphrase:
"In times of information overload, we use pattern recognition. Instead of using verbal learning, we study configurations."
Brilliant! I have a lot of configurations at work I need to get started on, with a lot of new equipment. If only I could shelve my video projects, which take up a lot of time & energy...
I'll be getting some video assistants in the near future. Good!
