The very best of Ars Electronica 1979 - actual
McLuhan still dead? 25 years later
Derrick de Kerckhove (CA)

A special-format presentation at Ars Electronica—2 1⁄2 hours devoted to a single speaker discussing a single topic. McLuhan’s reputation went crashing after he died. Some say even before. The fact is that it has been rising from the dead, so to speak, steadily since the early days of the web. It is OK to quote McLuhan now. He even has serious— as opposed to frivolous—detractors.What happened? What is happening still that makes reading McLuhan more rewarding than ever? Derrick de Kerckhove will attempt an overview of McLuhan’s legacy and where the ideas are going today.
