Glacing at the idea o f Marshall Mcluhan, he seems to be a man that seems to analyze things by media analysis, with reference to a center of interest in his work. For instance, there is a commentary about the shock of his classs that led him to the idea of media analysis. Whether if is learning from it, or just by plain observation. Basically, I find it quite positive, and relating, to notice a man that actually seems to break down media understanding. Coming from noticing a writing of his, such as "Understanding Media", it is known to me that it is important to know yourself. For it is through Marshall Mcluhan that we can understand how we act, sense, feel, bodies, and why we do what we do.

William,
I agree that Mcluhan seems to be a man that broke down media understanding. I thought it was really interesting that computers were 20 years before his time and he was still interested in the effect to technology on people.
