From Brian Oblivion in the movie Videodrome
[qb]The battle for the mind of north america will be fought in the video arena, the video drome.

The television screen is the retina of the mind's eye.

Therefore the television screen is part of the physical sturcture of the brain,

therefore whatever appears on the television screen emerges as raw experience for those who watch it,

therefore television is reality, and reality is less than television.[/qb]

One of my favorite movies, so funny how the video signal makes them start hallucinating!!! he he..

His logic is scary in it's truth! May our video screens see happy joyful thinks! he he..

Thank you Teo.
This is interesting.

I don't watch very much television so the physical structure of my brain is missing the big screen. Hide

Thanks Teo.
Good point.

I admit that I don't have much time to watch TV either, and when I do I am really selective.
My mind's eye will be closed Nut

Thank you Teo.

I think that children are often left behind the television for too many hours. They will watch things that they should not see and it will give them all sorts of bad ideas.
There are some good shows and I think we should be careful how much time we spend watching TV, and what we watch. It is good to spend some time just reading.

You are right Teo.

In these days the television screen truly seems to be the retina of the mind's eye. Now it is even on cellphones Confused, where will it be next? Confused
