A point of view requires stasis, and that’s not
involvement. These new media demand that you get
involved and become part of the action. The TV
image is not like the film image, it’s not a snapshot,
it is an actual live vortex in action, and it is, I think,
behind what we call the happening. The TV itself is a
kind of happening, technically, and it tends to
involve people in its own vortex.
Brave New Words: Marshall McLuhan And Tom
Wolfe , Ontario Educational Communication
