I chose
to do a very simple collage with only two pictures because I want it to be easy
to understand the meaning behind this kind of media. Hot and Cool Media was the
sort of media that got my attention and interest the most out of McLuhan´s
different concepts. I have never before thought about how many and which senses
I rely on depending on what media I use. When I think about it, I realise that
for example when I watch TV I am active and using many of my senses when trying to fill in the gaps in the
context. This is a classic example of "Cool Media". But when I listen
to the radio I only use one, my hearing, and often I will hear all sounds,
music or information from the news that I need to have complete involvement.
This is the so called "Hot Media". With this collage I want to show
the easiest explanation of McLuhan´s concept of "Hot" and
"Cool" media.
