MC2505 Media Analysis Robert Andrews CHEWING GUM FOR THE EYES. THE PASSIVE AUDIENCE AND WHAT HAPPENS WHEN IT MEETS NEW MEDIA TEXTS. The allegation that television is merely 'chewing gum for the eyes' can be levelled at other media, too.

This is a very important essay to me, written by me. This is an A-Level Media Studies coursework piece written in 1997. I was a student of the media who cared deeply to understand how our media worked, and one who noted incongruities in the representations of my culture in our media. Aged 16, I had also held a long interest in using technology. During A-Levels, I had begun reading Wired magazine, which suddenly united all these subjects (politics, culture, art, technology and media) and more in a riotous clash of monthly ideas. I felt as though my pent-up frustration at the media-economic systems, about which I was learning, was about to burst forth in to grand possibility. Suddenly, it was clear to me - the power to communicate would no longer rest with he who owned a printing press or broadcast transmitter. The one-to-many communications model could yield to a glorious many-to-many future in which everyone had the ability to publish for themselves, to each other and to be communicated back with in a bursting that would secure authentic, balanced representation of culture. I had, indeed, drunk John Perry Barlow's Kool Aid. These were ideas I was writing about as early as 1995 and 1996. They were ideas that have come to pass in today's internet - I'm proud, to be frank, that I was one of the few people at that time identifying the possibilities, advocating how our new media might change societies for the better. They have. In a sense, we prophesied "social media". But today, I'm sometimes chagrined that the vulgar "social media" crowd acknowledges this revolution as its own, as only a recent phenomenon. No, this was a cultural shift others amongst us identified and helped bring in to being 15 years earlier. This A-Level essay was the first major essay in a series of works that took me through university writings and focused on the media society that was about to change. Back then, it felt like no-one knew it and I was one of the few crazy soothsayers spewing words from the future on the street corner.
