I can't even be arsed watching telly or reading papers/magazines anymore. Why bother? |
||||||||
|
|

|
because your attention span will shrink to unimagined short length |

i like the telly once in a while for them classic series!!! and magazines "very" once in a while... like "futuremusic" for tha aphextwin interview there was last month. otherwize yeah!!! The net is pretty awesome for info and stuff of course... |

But a lot of the articles you can read on the net are very long and detailed. |

A magazine is more tangible. You can actually sniff the pages. |

There are still some books that aren't covered as well on the internet- like 'a new kind of science' and 'the selfish gene'. Television is absolute trash. That'd be cool if everyone agreed to set aside 1/4 of their computer for a huge internet experiment or something where an 'internet programming language' was made that treated all these donated connected computer sections as neurons n shit like that n shit. |

i barely ever watch telly now, except the news occasionally. if theres anything half-decent on, i will download it / buy it on DVD. |

I still read books, I've just finished Pascal Bussy's one about Kraftwerk. (It's a bit dry and matter-of-fact, but interesting anyway.) I just don't see the point in watching and reading really generalised, lowest common denominator stuff like soaps and tabloids. |

I still like TV because it's the only format in which you can be even lazier/more passive than the Internet. Reading news on the Internet, for example, involved pointing and clicking (and sitting upright). |

I think it's youtube that killed TV for me. Even if the quality sucks, I don't really care if I'm watching a comedy sketch or something. |

it's hard to concentrate even for 10 minutes nowadays. it's all so fucking tragic. so god damn fucking tragic. |

I still love to read and concentrate on one thing for hours. I read Simon Reynold's in a couple of weekends. |
