Lyrics, Revisionary History (2015)
“Boy with the name and face I don't remember,
you can stop shouting now, I can still hear you.”
'The Shout', from The Universal Home Doctor.
“But no matter what they say,
You can make it all right
You can do it alone now
Do it your way
Yeah”
Yomp
Lyrics, You Are Here (2008)
“You now have two distinct ways of gathering information beyond what you yourself can experience.”
John Perry Barlow 2.0 (2004)
Context: You now have two distinct ways of gathering information beyond what you yourself can experience. One of them is less a medium than an environment — the Internet — with a huge multiplicity of points of view, lots of different ways to find out what's going on in the world. Lots of people are tuned to that, and a million points of view have bloomed. It creates a cacophony of viewpoints that doesn't have any political coherence at all, a beautiful melee, but it doesn't have the capacity to create large blocs of belief.
The other medium, TV, has a much smaller share of viewers than at any time in the past, but those viewers get all their information there. They get turned into a very uniform belief block. TV in America created the most coherent reality distortion field that I’ve ever seen. Therein is the problem: People who vote watch TV, and they are hallucinating like a sonofabitch. Basically, what we have in this country is government by hallucinating mob.
