Marshall McLuhan on Art - Dictionary of Arguments
Brockman I 208 Art/McLuhan/Obrist: In the introduction to the second edition of his book Understanding Media, Marshall McLuhan noted the ability of art to “anticipate future social and technological developments.” Art is “an early alarm system,” pointing us to new developments in times ahead and allowing us “to prepare to cope with them. . . . Art as a radar environment takes on the function of indispensable perceptual training.”(1) >Media, >Social Media, >Public sphere, >Politics, >Technology, >Technocracy, >Progress, >Internet, >Art, >Artworks, >World/Thinking. 1.McLuhan, Marshall (1964).
